‌Silicone Applications in Cosmetic Categories‌

‌‌1. Base Makeup (Foundation/Primer/BB Cream)‌

  • ‌‌Pore Filling‌:
    Volatile silicones (e.g., D4/D6) rapidly evaporate, forming a smooth film on the skin surface to visually blur pores (filling depth >50 μm)1.
  • ‌‌Anti-Caking‌:
    Silicones coat titanium dioxide/iron oxide pigments to prevent powder agglomeration, enhancing spreadability (spreading coefficient ↑35%)4.
  • ‌‌Transfer Resistance‌:
    Cross-linked silicone elastomers (e.g., ‌Dimethicone Crosspolymer‌) create a mesh network to lock pigments and prevent fabric transfer7.

‌‌2. Mascara/Eyeliner‌

  • ‌‌Waterproof & Smudge-Proof‌:
    ‌Trimethylsiloxysilicate‌ forms a film on lashes that resists washing off even after 1-hour underwater immersion6.
  • ‌‌Fiber Fixation‌:
    High-viscosity dimethicone (350-100,000 cSt) bonds fibers for volumizing/lengthening effects (load-bearing capacity >200%)3.

‌‌3. Lip Products (Lipstick/Lip Gloss)‌

  • ‌‌Finish Adjustment‌:
    • High-refractive-index phenyl silicones (RI 1.46-1.58) enhance mirror-like shine;
    • Matte formulas use porous silica spheres (e.g., ‌Silica Dimethyl Silylate‌) for light diffusion5.
  • ‌‌Reduced Stickiness‌:
    Low-MW cyclic silicones (D5) replace mineral oil for featherweight feel and non-transfer (viscosity <5 mPa·s)2.

‌‌4. Setting Spray/Loose Powder‌

  • ‌‌Film-Forming & Longevity‌:
    Silicone resins (e.g., ‌Trimethylsiloxysilicate‌) create breathable films extending wear by 6 hours7.
  • ‌‌Oil Control & Mattifying‌:
    Hydrophobically modified silica (‌Silica Silylate‌) absorbs 220% of its weight in sebum4.
