Lauryl PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone
Silicon
Silicones are a colorless substance derived from the silicon mineral used to help boost the appearance and feel of a product.
Explained
This is a silicone-polyether copolymer with skin conditioning, emulsifying, texture enhancing, and surfactant properties. It is used to help blend water and silicone based ingredients to improve slip and spreadability.
Due to its large molecular size and hydrophilic-lipophilic structure (it loves both oil and water), this ingredient is minimally absorbed into the skin.
