W/O Silicone Emulsifiers For Cosmetics

Water-in-oil (W/O) silicone emulsifiers play a crucial role in the formulation of cosmetics by creating stable emulsions where water droplets are dispersed in an oil phase. This unique structure allows for the delivery of water-soluble ingredients into oil-based products, enhancing their moisturizing and nourishing effects. W/O emulsifiers also contribute to the texture and sensory experience of cosmetics, providing a rich, creamy feel that is often preferred by consumers for its luxurious and hydrating sensation. Additionally, they improve the stability and shelf life of products by preventing phase separation, ensuring consistent performance over time. Below are silicone emulsifiers supplied by ShengQing materials.

SQ-SE 1090: Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone

Emulsification Performance: As an emulsifier, it effectively stabilizes oil and water systems, preventing separation in emulsions. This stability is crucial for maintaining the uniform texture and extending the shelf life of cosmetics, ensuring they continue to deliver expected results throughout their use.

Skin Conditioning: It has excellent skin conditioning properties, making the skin smooth and soft. By locking in moisture and providing lubrication, it helps maintain skin hydration and softness. In skincare products, this characteristic improves the moisturizing effect and tactile feel of the skin.

Safety: According to assessments by authoritative organizations, this ingredient is safe for use in leave-on cosmetics at concentrations not exceeding 15%. This means it does not pose health risks when used within reasonable limits and can be confidently incorporated into various cosmetic formulations.

SQ-SE 1200: Lauryl PEG/PPG-18/8 Methicone

Emulsification and Thickening Effects: This emulsifier can form stable emulsions and has some thickening effects. It is suitable for high-water-content formulations, achieving good emulsification at low usage levels while also increasing product viscosity for enhanced texture and stability.

Moisturizing: It has outstanding moisturizing properties. In cosmetics, it helps lock in moisture, providing long-lasting hydration and moisturization, making it ideal for moisturizing skincare products like creams and lotions, helping to address dry and dehydrated skin issues.

Refreshing and Non-Greasy: Leaves a refreshing, non-greasy feel on the skin. This characteristic is highly popular in summer or for oily skin care products, providing a comfortable user experience while avoiding skin issues caused by greasiness.

SQ-SE 1038: Lauryl PEG 9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone

Emulsification and Dispersion Performance: As an emulsifier and dispersant, it effectively mixes oil and water phases, forming stable emulsions. It also helps disperse solid particles in cosmetics, such as pigments and fragrances, ensuring these ingredients are evenly distributed, enhancing product stability and performance.

Conditioning Effects: Provides good conditioning for skin and hair. It makes the skin smooth and soft, reducing roughness, and improves hair luster and smoothness, making hair easier to comb and manage.

Safety: Safe for use in leave-on cosmetics at concentrations not exceeding 6%. This indicates that within reasonable usage limits, the ingredient does not pose health risks and can be widely used in various cosmetic formulations.

SQ-SE 1225: Cyclopentasiloxane & PEG/PPG-18/18 Dimethicone

Spreadability: Offers excellent spreadability. It makes cosmetics glide smoothly on the skin, reducing friction and allowing for even application, enhancing product usage experience and coverage.

Tactile Feel: Provides a smooth, non-greasy tactile feel after application. This characteristic is highly sought after in makeup products like foundation and primer, offering a refreshing and comfortable user experience while preventing greasiness that could affect makeup longevity and appearance.

Transparency: Can be formulated into fully transparent products. This feature is ideal for cosmetics requiring transparency or semi-transparency, such as clear lip gloss and transparent foundation, helping achieve better visual effects and transparency.

SQ-SE 1225D: Dimethicone & PEG/PPG-18/18 Dimethicone

Emulsification and Thickening Effects: This emulsifier forms stable emulsions and has some thickening effects. It achieves good emulsification at low usage levels while also increasing product viscosity for enhanced texture and stability.

Skin Conditioning: Has excellent skin conditioning properties. It makes the skin smooth and soft, reducing roughness, and helps lock in moisture, providing long-lasting hydration and moisturization, making it ideal for skincare products like creams and lotions.

Safety: As a common cosmetic ingredient, it is safe when used within reasonable limits. This means it does not pose health risks when used in accordance with relevant regulations and standards and can be confidently incorporated into various cosmetic formulations.
