Volatile touch
This eco-friendly silicone replacement has a superior volatile behavior, making it the ideal “improved” replacement for volatile silicones. Unlike silicones, Eco Silk is free from CMR, free from solvents, has no inhalation toxicity and respects our environment.
Reduces the soaping effect / whitening of creams
When a high amount of waxes or fatty alcohol is used, emulsions become white on the skin during application; especially natural emulsions suffer from this problem. Adding this eco friendly silicone replacement to such an emulsion reduces this whitening effect efficiently.
Boosts spreadability
Emulsions with high amount of vegetable oils, butters or waxes have an unpleasant spreadability. Eco Silk reduces this problem in a spectacular way. The effect is comparable to volatile silicones
Eliminates tackiness completely
Sun screens, vitamins give a sticky skin feel to cosmetics. In the presence of Eco Silk, this tackiness disappears completely. An ideal solution for a day creams with a high SPF or a high content of vitamins.
Soluble with Dimethicone
Almost no ingredients mix with Dimethicone. Eco Silk is a natural exeption as it mixes easily with Dimeticone. It is therefore a powerful (waterproof) make up remover which does not irritate eyes.
Disperses solids
This product is a perfect dispersing agent for Titanium Dioxide, Aluminium Chlorohydrate and make up pigments.
Dissolves sunscreens
This product dissolves sunscreens easier than synthetic emollients such as Alkyl Benzoate.
Avoids oil separation
The product is able to mix unmixable ingredients. In this way it eliminates oil separation problem in emulsions and is also able to clarify bath oils.
Turns W/O into a O/W-touch
W/O-emulsions have a reputation to have a heavy feeling on the skin. This product easily transforms these W/O-emulsions into light emulsions that can be hardly distinguished from a O/W-emulsions.
Appearance
Transparent, colourless liquid with a characteristic odour
Wow…I loaded a personalised body butter for a client with 4 different butters and oils…the Ecosilk did something miraculous because on application, my skin was soft and not at all oily or greasy…really shocked (in a great way)
