About Dimethicone PEG-7 Octyldodecyl Citrate
Dimethicone PEG-7 Octyldodecyl Citrate is a mixed ester of citric acid, octyldodecanol, and PEG-7 Dimethicone.[1] The number 7 in the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added. Within the same base structure, changing this number may alter water miscibility and the formula's viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce friction on the skin or hair and add a smooth feel, as well as to leave the skin surface feeling soft and smooth.[2]
