Dimethicone

Dimethicone is a very popular silicone ingredient in hair, skin and beauty products due to its ability to moisturize and protect skin and smooth even the most unruly strands. By forming a hydrating barrier on the skin, dimethicone secures natural moisture while keeping out environmental stressors like humidity, which is why it is used most often in skin care products targeting particularly dehydrated and chapped skin types and lips. Dimethicone can also plump-up fine lines and wrinkles, temporarily minimizing their appearance, so it's an ideal ingredient for anti-aging primers and day creams. Dermtore's collection of products featuring dimethicone include full skin care regimens from the best skin care brands like EltaMD, Obagi, jane iredale and Glytone.
