About the Product
Dimethicone (Dow Corning® 350)
Dimethicone is a lightweight, versatile silicone fluid that delivers exceptional slip and a silky-smooth after-feel in personal care formulations. Known for its barrier properties, it helps reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL), locking in moisture while enhancing product spreadability and skin conditioning. Dimethicone also imparts softness, detangling, and shine in hair care, making it a staple ingredient across skincare, haircare, bath, and massage products. Its non-greasy finish and stability make it highly compatible with a wide range of cosmetic formulations.
