What it is — Vinyl Dimethicone is a silicone ingredient used for its smoothing, conditioning feel.

Typical use — Common in hair serums, primers and skin products where a silky, refined texture is wanted.
Who it suits / good to know — Broadly suitable across skin and hair types; it is a texture-and-feel ingredient rather than an active. Those avoiding silicones may prefer alternatives.
