Overview
Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 dimethicone is a silicone-based emulsifying agent.
This synthetic emulsifier is capable of producing both water-in-oil and water-in-silicone emulsions, which can include all types of skincare products, such as lotions and creams. These emulsions are generally lightweight and pleasant feeling when applied to the skin, and this silky feeling on the skin can be attributed to the silicone nature of this ingredient.
Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 dimethicone is a powerful emulsifier on its own, so it rarely requires co-emulsifiers or stabilizing waxes and thickeners to produce a stable product.
