Silky, Smooth, Soft and Sexy, all come to mind when formulating with our new Gelaid® SILK. Chemsil Silicones introduces Gelaid® SILK, the latest silicone formulation aid which creates elegant skin care treatments and cosmeceuticals.

Formulas using Gelaid® SILK (INCI) Cyclohexasiloxane (and) Vinyl Dimethicone/Methicone Silsesquioxane Crosspolymer (and) Acrylate/Sodium Acrylodimethyltaurate Copolymer (and) Isohexadecane (and) PEG- 10 Dimethicone (and) Polysorbate 80 are instantly transformed into elegant, silk to the touch, rich emulsions, at low use levels (8%-15%) eliminating the need for heat. This advanced micro-sphere technology creates a protective barrier which ensures increased hydration resulting in unmatched silky softness.

Gelaid® SILK expands our existing line of cold mix silicone formulation aids which includes Gelaid® CPE and Gelaid® CPE-CF. These innovative ingredients were designed to meet your formulation requirements for differentiated after-feel and product functionality.
