How to achieve extra smooth cream texture

Ingredients for Extra Smoothness in Cream Texture

To enhance the smoothness of your face cream, which already contains 4% Cyclopentasiloxane, to an exceptional level ("super smooth"), you can consider adding Silicone Elastomer Gels or Silicone Elastomer Powders. This group of ingredients helps to improve the texture of the cream, making it soft, smooth, easy to spread, and providing a luxurious feel.

Recommended ingredients include:

• Silicone Gel (Ultra Clear, Super Silky): This silicone gel provides the highest level of softness and a silky texture compared to other types of silicone gels. It makes the cream easy to spread, light, non-sticky, and leaves the skin feeling soft. It is ideal for formulas requiring exceptional smoothness and is compatible with the Cyclopentasiloxane already in your formula.
• Silicone Gel 9040: This silicone gel has properties similar to Silicone Gel (Ultra Clear, Super Silky), helping to increase softness, spreadability, and making the cream texture light and comfortable on the skin, providing a pleasant soft feel. It is another popular option for improving product texture.
• Silicone Elastomer Powder: This silicone elastomer powder effectively makes the cream texture softer and smoother. It also has oil-absorbing properties, giving the skin a slightly matte appearance and helping to blur wrinkles. It is suitable for formulas that require both smoothness and oil control or wrinkle-blurring benefits. It disperses well in silicone oils like Cyclopentasiloxane.

The choice of which ingredient(s) to use and the amount will depend on the desired final feel and texture. It is recommended to start with small amounts and gradually increase until you achieve the preferred texture.
