At present, silicone oil products commonly used in cosmetics mainly include dimethicone oil, methylphenyl silicone oil, cyclic silicone oil, hydroxy silicone oil, polyether silicone oil and long-chain alkyl modified silicone oil.

The outstanding properties of silicone oil used in cosmetics mainly include waterproofness, lubricity, spreadability, film-forming properties and compatibility. Silicone oil has low surface tension, has a good lubricating effect on the skin, and combined with the appropriate viscosity, the other components of the cosmetics are easy to disperse and form a delicate and uniform skin protective film on the skin, preventing the skin from drying and wrinkles, and can also ensure the normal breathing of the skin and treat dermatitis and eczema. The protective film can also prolong the action of the active active ingredients in cosmetics, effectively prolong the effect of nutritional creams and medicated creams, and the hydrophobic nature of silicone oil makes cosmetics with silicone oil not easily lost due to washing or sweating.

Silicone oil has good compatibility with most cosmetic additives, and good compatibility and compatibility make the formula of cosmetics have greater room for choice, which is convenient for the development of different types of high-end cosmetics. The detackification of silicone oil allows it to be combined with petroleum jelly, paraffin, beeswax, lanolin, etc. to obtain non-sticky products.

Volatile silicone fluids impart properties such as quick-drying, smoothness and stain repellency to cosmetics; Methylphenyl silicone oil has a certain effect of absorbing ultraviolet rays, and the phenyl group can enhance the compatibility of silicone oil with other oil compounds; Long-chain alkyl modified silicone oil has a good gloss, increases the brightness and gloss of cosmetics, and has better compatibility with carbon-based compounds; Hydroxy silicone oil can improve compatibility and compatibility with other raw materials in cosmetics; Polyether silicone oil is suitable for water-based cosmetics, has good compatibility with hydrophilic compounds, and has a certain emulsifying effect, and can be used as an emulsifier for cream products or lotions.
