High-spreading silicones can significantly improve the skin feel here. They make it easier to spread the formulation, reduce the perceived greasy film, and provide a light, silky finish. However, silicones are generally immiscible or poorly miscible with hydrocarbon-based oils, such as plant oils or most cosmetic oils.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSilsens\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is a modified silicone characterized by an exceptionally light, dry, and luxurious sensory profile.

Therefore, Silsens is not actually a classic silicone and thus possesses different properties than classic silicones. One of its most interesting features is its excellent compatibility with organic raw materials. This makes it outstandingly suitable for formulations with a high proportion of plant oils or cosmetic oils such as \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/innometics.at\/products\/hydromollient\" title=\"innometics - lipide - hydromollient\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHydromollient\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.

It is excellently suited for face creams, body lotions, sun protection products, and makeup, as it has no comedogenic potential and does not clog pores. It is therefore also ideal for products for oily or blemish-prone skin. At the same time, it reliably reduces the whitening effect of creams and ensures they literally \"sink into\" the skin upon application.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn hair care products, too, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSilsens\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e impresses with its outstanding sensory properties. While it does not smooth and protect like other long-chain silicones, it provides suppleness without weighing the hair down unnecessarily or making it look greasy.
