FunctionSilicone

What it is — Disiloxane (INCI: Disiloxane) is a very light, volatile silicone that spreads quickly and evaporates.

What it does — It is commonly used to give a silky, non-greasy slip and a quick-dry feel, and to help thin and spread heavier ingredients.

Typical use — Found in hair oils and serums, primers and lightweight facial products.

Who it suits / good to know — Suits those who prefer a weightless, dry-touch finish with no residue. It works well as a carrier for richer emollients.

Safety — Graded low risk as a light, volatile silicone. This is general information, not medical advice.
