Applications
By incorporating silicone into shampoo, you can give hair a pleasant, soft feel, improve its combability, and prevent static to keep it healthy.
BELSIL® hair care silicones give hair a silky shine and pleasant feel, providing a conditioning effect tailored to the hair type.
Silicones for fabric softeners reduce friction between fibers and between fibers and metal. The silicone that adheres to the fibers also promotes fiber dispersion, reduces friction between fibers, and gives them a silky-soft feel.
Because the eyes and the area around them are very sensitive, it's essential to use especially gentle ingredients, such as WACKER's silicone-based additives. Water-based BELSIL® silicone resins and silicone elastomer gels improve pigment processing and enhance the water resistance of mascara and eyeshadow.
BELSIL® low-viscosity dimethicones and specific alkyl silicones improve the spreadability of foundation products, providing a uniform finish. Additionally, silicone resins and silicone resin gels create especially long-lasting products due to their film-forming properties.
BELSIL® silicone resins and silicone elastomer gels can be used to create lipsticks with a long-lasting protective film that doesn't smudge. High-melting silicone waxes provide stability and improve the usability, making the lipstick "kiss-proof.
BELSIL® silicones for skincare give skincare products a comfortable feel, protect the skin, and provide moisturizing effects, a subtle shine, and suppleness.
BELSIL® hair care silicones also play an important role in hair color applications. They provide foaming, emulsifying, and conditioning effects.
Silicones can reduce hair damage from perms, prevent tangling, and improve hair's slipperiness, keeping hair beautiful and healthy.
