IOTA Silicone Elastomer Gel: The Dawn of a New Era in Dry and Silky Skin Feel

Hits: 455 img

In today's pursuit of lightweight and non-burdensome skincare experiences, heavy and sticky formulations have become a thing of the past. We proudly introduce the IOTA Silicone Elastomer Gel—an innovative translucent gel agent that combines high-molecular-weight silicone elastomers with cyclic siloxanes, delivering an ultra-smooth, dry, and non-greasy skin feel to skincare, cosmetics, and hair care products.


Why Choose IOTA Silicone Elastomer Gel?

Three Key Features to Redefine Skin Feel

  1. Velvety Smoothness, Dry and Lightweight
    The translucent gel texture spreads smoothly without stickiness, forming a lightweight protective film on the skin, free from the artificial slickness and greasiness of traditional silicone oils.

  2. Mild Oil Absorption, Balanced Comfort
    Features slight sebum-absorbing properties to help regulate surface shine, making it ideal for formulations targeting oily and combination skin types.

  3. Compatibility Across Systems, High Formulation Flexibility
    Suitable for water/oil, water/silicone oil, oil/water, and anhydrous systems, offering broad possibilities for product development.


Four Core Advantages for Enhanced Formulation Competitiveness

 Room-Temperature Processing, Process-Friendly
Stable dispersion can be achieved without high temperatures or high shear, simplifying production and improving efficiency.

 Effective Thickening, Controllable Texture
Acts as a thickener and stabilizer in various emulsions, allowing textures ranging from lightweight lotions to rich creams.

 Eliminates Stickiness, Enhances User Experience
Significantly reduces the sticky feel of formulations, delivering a long-lasting refreshing sensation that boosts product appeal and repurchase intent.

 Synergistic Effects, Enhanced Performance
Improves the spreadability and adhesion of cyclic silicone oils in formulations, enhancing the longevity and smoothing effects of sunscreens and primers.

Broad Applications, Covering Multiple Product Innovations

Usage Recommendations

  • Recommended dosage: 0.5%–5% of the formulation, adjustable based on desired skin feel and texture.
