Dimethicone

Dimethicone is a silicone-based emollient commonly used in skincare formulations for its moisturizing and skin-protecting properties. It forms a protective barrier on the skin's surface, preventing moisture loss and keeping the skin hydrated. Dimethicone also helps to smooth and soften the skin, improving its texture and appearance. Its occlusive nature allows it to create a barrier against environmental stressors, such as pollution and harsh weather conditions, while soothing and calming the skin. Dimethicone is non-comedogenic, meaning it does not clog pores, making it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin.
