Wrinkle-blurring Film Former for Mobility, Stability

Posted: November 11, 2009

Centerchem has introduced a polymer chain network that imparts sensory elegance as well as fine line- and wrinkle-blurring effects. Organza (INCI: Cyclopentasiloxane (and) Polyethylene (and) PEG/PPG-20/15 Dimethicone (and) Phenyl Methicone) also provides flexible film-forming characteristics and a tactile mobility that adds to sensory moisturization.

This film-former delivers a fine, spreadable film to the skin that remains mobile for an extended period of time and since it is a complex polymer chain network, it can entrap and hold a variety of oil- and water-soluble ingredients within its matrix. This property makes it effective in stabilizing w/s and s/w emulsions.

The ingredient is recommended at 3% in anhydrous makeup and skin care; emulsion products such as skin care, makeup, hair care and sun care; and cleansing products.
