Siloxane is an inorganic compound composed of silicon, oxygen and carbon. Its chemical formula is SiOx(C2H5)y, where x and y represent the number of silicon and oxygen atoms in the siloxane, respectively. Siloxane not only has amazing biocompatibility and low toxicity, but also has a variety of chemical structure and physical properties, widely used in medical, electronics, metallurgy, construction and other fields. The high application of

siloxanes in cosmetics dates back decades. Today, many cosmetic brands use silicone as one of their main ingredients. The application advantages of silicone in cosmetics are as follows:

1. increase the durability of makeup

silicone can form a thin layer of isolation film, make cosmetics and skin surface between the formation of a more perfect contact effect. It can lock the effect of makeup, make makeup lasting without makeup.

2. Improve skin touch

silicone has a very smooth texture, which can easily generate a smooth and comfortable skin texture, make the skin surface smooth and delicate, and improve skin touch.

3. improve the stability of cosmetics

silicone helps to maintain the stability of cosmetics, avoid dehydration, discoloration, oxidation and other factors damage the quality of cosmetics.

4. It has good transparency

. Silicone has high transparency, which will not affect the color of cosmetics, natural color, less wrinkles, and better color sense. The use of

silicones in cosmetics goes far beyond the above list. Different product composition, structure and scope of application will affect the use of silicone in cosmetics. It should be noted that silicone itself does not have obvious moisturizing effect, so when cosmetics ingest too much silicone-containing ingredients, you should try to match moisturizing ingredients to prevent excessive dryness of the skin.

sum up, siloxane has a wide range of applications and excellent performance, and its application in cosmetics is also constantly developing and improving. People can choose silicon-containing cosmetics suitable for their skin type according to their own needs to achieve better makeup effects.
