Bis-PEG-18 methyl ether dimethyl silane is a copolymer consisting of silicone and glycol. This ingredient is dispersible in water, which is an unusual trait for a silicone and makes it useful in many applications.
Bis-PEG-18 methyl ether dimethyl silane can act as an emollient, giving a soft, silky feel to the skin when used in skincare products. In addition, this ingredient moisturizes by acting as a humectant, in which it draws water into the skin.
Finally, this ingredient also has foam boosting properties and will produce a dense, creamy foam.
