About Propyl Trimethicone

Propyl Trimethicone is a siloxane polymer.[1] The moisturization and spreadability of a finished product containing Propyl Trimethicone may vary depending on the use level and the combination of moisturizing and emollient ingredients used with it. In cosmetics, it is used to attract moisture to the formula and skin surface to help maintain a moisturized feel, to leave the skin surface feeling soft and smooth, and to dissolve other raw materials to create a uniform formula.[2]
