Ingredients Details
Dimethicone
Common Name(s): Pdms,polydimethylsiloxane,silicone fluid
CAS Number: 9006-65-9
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides silicone-characteristic silky feel and skin protection with adjustable viscosity.
Why It's Used: The benchmark cosmetic silicone โ sets the gold standard for silky application feel, spreadability, and skin protection in virtually all skin care categories.
How It Works: Polydimethylsiloxane chain flexibility provides extremely low surface tension and high spreadability. inert si-o backbone provides chemical stability and excellent skin tolerance. occlusive film formation reduces tewl. higher viscosity grades provide more intense conditioning.
Typically Found In: Moisturizers,foundations,primers,sunscreens โ nearly universal
TECHNICAL DETAILS
Primary Category: Functional ingredient โ polydimethylsiloxane
Secondary Functions: Barrier sealing,softening
Application Areas:
Facial Skincare
Body Care
Hair Care
Beard Care
Color Cosmetics (Makeup)
Dietary/Oral Supplements
Typical Concentration Range: 0.1%โ30%
SOURCING & ETHICS
Vegan Status: Yes โ synthetic
Halal Status: Yes
Source Notes: Plant-derived, synthetic or animal-derived. verify source.
SKIN COMPATIBILITY
Irritancy Rating: 1/5 โ very low
Comedogenicity Rating: 1/5 โ low; formulation-dependent
Sensitivity Concerns: Non-irritating.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Yes
SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Excellent safety profile. ewg score: 1.
Works Well With: Humectants,ceramides,actives as carrier
Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Dimethicone's exceptional silky feel arises from its very low intermolecular attractive forces (weak van der waals forces due to non-polar methyl groups) that allow silicone chains to slide freely over skin. the coefficient of kinetic friction for pdms against skin (~0.04) is among the lowest of any cosmetic material โ explaining why even small amounts transform product feel.

Petrolatum
Common Name(s): Petroleum jelly,vaseline,white petrolatum
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides the highest level of skin occlusion and wound healing protection of any cosmetic ingredient.
Why It's Used: The most effective skin barrier protection ingredient available โ fda-approved otc skin protectant with unparalleled occlusive moisturization and wound healing evidence.
How It Works: Semi-solid blend of long-chain hydrocarbons creates an extremely cohesive, impermeable occlusive film. physically prevents bacterial and irritant ingress while completely preventing tewl. does not absorb into skin. promotes moist wound healing environment by maintaining wound surface hydration.
Typically Found In: Intensive moisturizers,wound healing ointments,lip balms,baby products,eczema treatments

SAFETY & COMPATIBILITY
Safety Profile: Fda category i grase otc skin protectant. ewg score: 1.
Works Well With: Humectants,ceramides,actives as carrier
Avoid Combining With: No significant incompatibilities
SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Petrolatum's wound healing mechanism (moist wound healing) was first systematically studied by george winter (1962) and demonstrated that wounds heal 2ร faster under occlusion than air-exposed. all subsequent wound dressings and occlusive skin treatments are based on this fundamental finding, with petrolatum remaining the most effective occlusive agent 60 years later.
