Question
If separated out, which products are these?
Answer
For Silky Serum Base Plus (Face/Eye, Oil), the INCI components can be matched to these separate MySkinRecipes products:
| INCI / component | Separate product name | Role in the base |
|---|---|---|
| Cyclomethicone | Cyclopentasiloxane (Low-Odor Cyclomethicone) | Light, volatile silicone; helps give a light/slippery feel and reduces heaviness |
| Dimethicone | Dimethicone (Light/50, Low-Odor) | Non-volatile silicone; gives longer-lasting smoothness/slip |
| Lauryl PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone | Lauryl PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone | Silicone-based W/O emulsifier/binder; helps bind water with oil/silicone |
The catalog composition of Silky Serum Base Plus (Face/Eye, Oil) is approximately:
- Cyclomethicone 78%
- Dimethicone 20%
- Lauryl PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone 2%
So, if separated, it corresponds to the three product names above. However, if you want to reproduce the ready base by mixing yourself, the mixing process must be done thoroughly until uniform; Cyclomethicone is volatile, so keep the vessel covered during mixing and re-check weight after mixing if needed.
