Primary Properties

1. Skin care: Polymethylsilsesquioxane has anti-aging and film-forming properties that lock in moisture and keep the skin hydrated throughout the day. This ingredient is responsible for the silky appearance of the skin and is also good for absorbing oil. Further, it also improves the texture and feel of the products, leaving them richer and creamier.
2. Hair care: Polymethylsilsesquioxane improves the look and feel of the hair shafts. It forms a film on the hair which reduces the loss of moisture and thus keeps the shafts nourished.
