At all levels. They help with personal care, beautify skin and hair, and even make the cosmetic product itself more attractive. For example, they confer smoothness on creams and prevent stickiness in oils. In sham- poos, they make hair softer and easier to comb. Silicones also improve the spreadabili- ty of natural oils, thus making it easier to spread emulsions on the skin. The uniquely soft feel that silicones confer on skin and hair is well known, and explains why they have been used in most successful products for a long time. A further benefit is that the diverse effects are often obtained with just a small addition of silicone. Provided it was engineered with the necessary expertise. WACKER, one of the world’s largest, most experienced silicone producers, offers you precisely this expertise. We help you make easy use of the potential residing in sili- cones – to improve existing products or develop new ones. 3 HOW TO MAKE THE BEST USE OF THE “ATTRACTIVITY” PRINCIPLE Attractivity is a question of chemistry, not only in the literal sense.
