BIS-CETYL/PEG-8 CETYL PEG-8 DIMETHICONE
Ingredient type: SILICONE
✨ Role: Bis-Cetyl/PEG-8 Cetyl PEG-8 Dimethicone is an emollient and conditioning agent that helps soften and smooth the skin while improving the overall texture of the cosmetic product. It can also act as a dispersing agent for other ingredients, improving their even distribution on the skin.
Ingredient type: Emulsifier
⚕️ Safety: Generally safe. As always, patch testing is preferred for those with sensitive skin or known allergies.
✨ Vegan: Potentially, but this depends on the origin of the remaining components. Verification with the manufacturer recommended.
✨ Worth knowing: This ingredient belongs to the family of silicones which, although well tolerated by most, can be occlusive for certain skin types. They offer a smooth finish, but it's important to cleanse the skin well to avoid build-up.
Present in: Moisturizers, foundations, hair care products, serums and sun care products.
