Silicone Ingredients in Cosmetics
On the silicone component in makeup
Today's cosmetics, silicone components often exist. Silica has a special function in makeup.

One, it can change the texture. Make the makeup smoother, when applied, it feels delicate to the touch, easy to spread, can evenly cover the skin, not stagnant or condensed, like clouds floating in the air, smooth and natural. Such as creams, after adding silicone, its quality is more suitable for the skin, without the risk of astringency.

Second, it has protective properties. Silica can form a film on the surface of the skin, but this film is not thick and stuffy, but light and breathable. It can protect the skin from external dust and foreign bodies. It is like a light cover, but it does not hinder the skin's breathing and makes the skin relatively comfortable.

Third, it helps the makeup last. With the blessing of silicon, the makeup is firmly attached to the skin, and it is not easy to take off makeup. Sweating in hot summer, or over time, the makeup can still maintain its initial state, with fresh color and regular layout, and will not be patchy.

However, silicon is not completely safe. Long-term use of silicone-containing cosmetics may cause pore congestion. Although the silicone film is skin care, it will accumulate in the pores for a long time, and the dirt will be difficult to discharge. The pores will gradually increase, and the skin may become rough. And some people are allergic to silicone, which can cause itchy, redness and discomfort to the skin.

Therefore, those who use silicone-containing cosmetics should check their own skin type. Those with delicate skin and not prone to allergies can enjoy its benefits; those with sensitive skin and easy clogging of pores should choose them carefully to find more suitable cosmetics to achieve skin beauty without damage.
