Other ingredient
Polysilicone-11
Polysilicone-11 is a high-molecular-weight silicone polymer (a polysiloxane copolymer with functional groups) used as a film-former and sensory modifier in serums and lightweight skincare formulations. It provides a smooth, non-greasy skin feel and can contribute optical softening effects. Distinct from lower-molecular-weight dimethicone and cyclopentasiloxane in its film-forming and substantivity properties.

Benefits
- ✓A high-molecular-weight silicone polymer that forms a breathable, water-resistant film on skin — used as a sensory modifier and soft-focus agent in serums and lightweight emulsions
- ✓Contributes to a non-greasy, velvety skin feel and may reduce the appearance of fine lines and pores through light-scattering and optical blurring when combined with other film formers
- ✓Better skin substantivity than standard dimethicone in aqueous formulas due to its cross-linked or high-MW polymer structure
No known watch-fors.
Compatibility
✓ Works well with
+ Dimethicone+ Niacinamide+ Glycerin
