Features & Benefits of Polymethylsilsesquioxane LC-PMSQ2104

Excellent makeup holding and waterproof performance

  • Liquid based film-forming has high hardness, which can firmly fix makeup or skincare ingredients and improve makeup holding time;

  • Strong hydrophobic property to resist the erosion of water, sweat and grease, suitable for waterproof sunscreen, liquid foundation, eye black and other products.

Excellent skin sensation regulation ability

  • Spherical powder has a rolling effect, which can significantly improve the product's smoothness and spreadability, and reduce skin friction;

  • Can fill skin texture and pores, create matte or natural glossy makeup effects, while avoiding the dryness of traditional powders.

Widely compatible formula

  • The powder can be compounded with various cosmetic powders (talc, mica, titanium dioxide, iron oxide), silicone oil, and oils;

  • Liquid soluble in oily solvents, suitable for anhydrous formulations (hair wax, lipstick), water in oil (W/O), and oil in water (O/W) emulsion systems;

  • Good synergy with other organic silicon components such as polydimethylsiloxane and amino silicone oil, with no compatibility contraindications


Applications of Polymethylsilsesquioxane LC-PMSQ2104

Makeup products (core applications)

  • Makeup products: liquid foundation, powder, loose powder, makeup front milk, with the addition amount of 1%~10%, to improve the makeup holding power, smoothness and concealer power, and avoid powder sticking;

  • Eye makeup: eye shadow, eyeliner pencil, eye black, with the addition amount of 2%~8%, to enhance the waterproof and durability, and prevent dizziness.

  • Lip makeup: Lipstick and lip gloss, with an added amount of 1% to 5%, to enhance smoothness and color retention, avoiding contact with the cup.

Skin care products

  • Sunscreen products: waterproof sunscreen, isolation cream, with an added amount of 0.5% to 3%, to enhance the dispersibility and waterproofness of sunscreen agents, while improving skin texture;

  • Matte skin care products: oil control lotion, face cream, with the addition amount of 1%~5%, to absorb excess oil from the skin and create a matte skin feel;

  • Repair products: can form a protective film, reduce external irritation to the skin, and enhance the durability of the product.

Hair care products

  • Styling products: hair gel, hair wax, styling spray, with the addition amount of 1%~5%, to enhance the styling force and waterproof, while improving the smoothness of the hair;

How to use

Adding method

  • Powder formula: Mix directly with other powders evenly, and improve dispersibility through airflow crushing or ball milling;

  • Liquid/Emulsification Formula: Liquid form can be directly added to the oil phase, heated to 60-70 ℃ and stirred evenly; The powder should be dispersed in silicone oil or esters before adding the oil phase to avoid aggregation.

Suggestions for compounding

  • Makeup base: compounded with silane talcum powder and mica to enhance smoothness and makeup retention; Compound with polydimethylsiloxane to improve spreading properties.

  • Waterproof and sunscreen: compounded with titanium dioxide and zinc oxide to enhance the dispersibility and waterproofness of sunscreen agents; Combined with C30-45 alkyl methyl siloxane to enhance waterproofing effect.

  • Hair care styling: compounded with amino silicone oil, balancing styling power and hair softness; Combined with cyclic siloxane to enhance smoothness.

Precautions

  • Excessive addition of powder type (>10%) may cause the product to dry and get stuck in powder. It is necessary to control the dosage and compound moisturizing ingredients;

  • Avoid using in strongly acidic (pH

  • The heating temperature should not exceed 100 ℃, otherwise it may cause damage to the liquid type molecular structure and affect the film-forming performance.
