It can be easily incorporated into emulsions and serums. Adding an emulsifier is not strictly necessary as it already contains one (a sugar surfactant), but doing so further improves the product's solubility. For this, we recommend, for example, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/innometics.at\/products\/glycogreen-bio-tensid\" title=\"Glycogreen\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGlycogreen\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e (e.g., in serums).

Thus, even a small addition of Silblend Aqua can strongly improve the \u003cstrong\u003eapplication behavior\u003c\/strong\u003e and skin feel.

In this way, you can easily give skincare products an expensive, luxurious finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter application to the skin, the carrier silicone oil evaporates, leaving only a delicate film of the silicone elastomer behind. This does not feel greasy but rather creates a soft, smooth-silky film on the skin. Due to the micro-fine surface structure, light is diffusely reflected, and the skin immediately receives a matte, perfected finish. The complexion appears more radiant, fine lines and pores are concealed, and oily skin does not start to shine as quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to its breathable, non-comedogenic profile, Silblend Aqua is also an optimal choice for oily and blemished skin. Furthermore, bacteria cannot metabolize silicones, meaning they cannot multiply as easily on the skin. This makes it even more valuable in products for blemished skin and acne.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn hair care, Silblend Aqua is characterized by its \u003cstrong\u003eprotective and sealing\u003c\/strong\u003e properties. It forms an invisible shield around the hair, protecting the cuticle from friction and thus saving the hair from split ends. At the same time, \u003cstrong\u003ecombability and shine\u003c\/strong\u003e are preserved without weighing the hair down too much. Due to its improved water solubility, Silblend Aqua can be effortlessly washed out of the hair with a shampoo and typically results in \u003cstrong\u003eno build-up effect\u003c\/strong\u003e. However, we generally recommend not to overdo the use of lipids, silicones, and other adhesive care substances in hair care.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInteresting to know:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe silicone elastomer contained in Silblend Aqua (Polysilicone-11®) represents a special feature within this substance class and is nearly unmatched in its performance.
