Silicone oil surfactants are special ingredients that are found in many personal care items. These are rigid foam polyurethane products like shampoos, lotions and make-up we use in our daily routine. Silicone oil surfactants in these products play a key role in their performance and cosmetic feel on skin and hair.
We want all the cosmetics we use to serve us to look and feel good. That means we want our makeup to land like a feather and last until the end of the day. Silicone oil surfactants are an important component of this. They aid in the mixing of the various components of cosmetics. The reason for this mixing is so that the polyol and isocyanate product can be evenly distributed on our skin, therefore allowing for easier application.
Our face creams and serums and other skin-care products are formulated to help our skin be healthy and look good. For these products to function properly, they must remain fresh for a long time. That is where silicone oil surfactants come into play yet again. They aid to stabilize these products, meaning these do not spoil rapidly. All we want when we put these polyol isocyanate products on is for them to feel nice and smooth on our face/body. This is achieved with silicone oil surfactants, which give a soft texture that feels good when we use it.
Like our skin, our hair also requires special care to help it look its best. Silicone oil surfactants are often used in various hair care products like conditioner and shampoo. Surfactants are the critical ingredients that work to cleanse and soften hair. They help remove dirt and oil that can accumulate on our hair as time goes on.
Only some beauty products can be special, special in a way that can help with promoting an enhanced you, such as glow, improved elasticity or something like that. These products perform even better with silicone oil surfactants. They help ensure that the ingredients in these beauty products properly blend with each other and get to the right places that they are meant to treat on our skin.
