In depth
What it does
A silicone copolymer (PEG/PPG-modified dimethicone) used as an emulsifier and film-former, chemically distinct from plain dimethicone. As an emollient ingredient, it is particularly valued for silicone-based emulsifier that gives products a smooth, silky texture.
Skin type guide
Best suited to normal, dry, or combination skin. Lightweight emollients work for oily skin too — richer ones are best reserved for dry and very dry skin types.
How to use it
Works best as a later step in your routine, after water-based serums and treatments. Emollients help seal in earlier layers, so their placement matters — put lighter textures on first.
