Silicone oil is stable, not easy to degrade, and generally not easy to react with other substances. Therefore, silicone oil has no effect on other ingredients in cosmetics and may even help absorb some ingredients. As a synthetic oil, silicone oil is lubricating but not greasy. Silicone oil is added to skin care products to fill fine lines and wrinkles on the skin, making the skin more delicate, smooth and youthful. Due to its waterproof and breathable properties, silicone oil forms a "waterproof film" on the skin without affecting the skin's breathing.
However, the reason why cosmetic formulators are attracted to silicone oil is that it is cheap and is an excellent substitute for natural oils. And while the prices of other cosmetic raw materials have risen, the price of silicone oil raw materials has fallen instead.
