Cyclomethicone
Cyclomethicone is a polymer blend that comprises Cyclotetrasiloxane (siloxane D4) and Cyclopentasiloxane (siloxane D5). Cyclomethicone is 100% active and is a silicone that has a lower molecular weight.
Cyclomethicone is essentially a fluid and is not as thick or viscous as some other polymer blends. Cyclomethicone is used as a solvent in cosmetic formulas. This liquid Cyclomethicone can be used as a carrier in color cosmetics, skincare, and hair care applications since it also holds stabilizing properties.
