About PEG-3 Dimethicone

PEG-3 Dimethicone is a siloxane polymer.[1] The number 3 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units. For the same base structure, changing this number can alter water miscibility as well as the viscosity and spreadability of the formula. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce hair tangling and rough feel for smoother conditioning and to leave the skin surface feeling soft and smooth.[2]
