Dimethicone 500 is a 100% active linear silicone polymer with a viscosity of 500 cps. Linear silicones are large high-molecular polymers (polydimethylsiloxanes) and usually are viscous and more oil-like.

• Dimenthicone can be used for Hair & skin conditioning products such  as shampoos, conditioners, creams, lotions, and color cosmetics (e.g. lipsticks, lip balms, makeup and Skin protectant products.it is also Used for its chemical stability in anti-foams, color cosmetics and hair care products
  
• It is non-comedogenic, therefore it helps improve the skin barrier and protects it from environmental damage.
  
• It prevents moisture loss from skin and hair and keeps it hydrated and frizz-free.
• When utilized in various formulations as a base ingredient, it works as an anti-foaming agent.
• Dimethicone 500 is a 100% active linear silicone polymer with a viscosity of 500 cps.
  
• It works by acting as an emulsifier and keeps the product from separating.
• Makes colors more dispersible (solvent)

Typical use level 1-20% (up to 50% possible), add to oil phase of formulas or at the end of formula. Do not heat over 50°C (125°F). For external use only.
