Silicone in Wax with melting point close to skin temperature. It was developed to replace many types of Wax. The coating gives a soft and smooth feel to the skin, Helps add SPF to the sunscreen formula. , Help spread the color powder in the make-up formula , Helps to add shine And coat to protect the hair
SiliWax Melt, or Silicone in Wax form with a melting point close to skin temperature, was developed to be used as a replacement for a wide variety of Waxes with the following features:
1.Coating to give a soft feeling Compared with general Wax that may leave a sticky residue on the skin.
2. Helps increase the SPF to the sunscreen formula. With properties to help spread pigment or physical sunscreen

Dissolution of SiliWax Melt with various oils or silicones:
The company sells SiliWax or Silicone in the form of various waxes, ordered by melting point as follows.
1. Cetyl Dimethicone (5cP, Very Light, Low Viscosity) is a liquid wax at room temperature. (dissolved in silicone/oil)
2. Siliwax Melt (Stearyl Dimethicone, Melting Point 30C) is a creamy wax at room temperature. Ready to melt immediately when it's on the skin. (dissolved in silicone/oil)
3. C30-45 Alkyldimethylsilyl Polypropylsilsesquioxane is a solid Wax that melts at a temperature of 66 degrees to increase the longevity / water resistance of the formula (such as in lipstick) (dissolved in silicone/oil)
4. Siliwax Hard (C30-45 Alkyl Methicone, Melting Point 70C) is Hard Wax. melt at 70 degrees (dissolved in silicone/oil)
5. Siliwax Aqua (Bis-PEG-18 Methyl Ether Dimethyl Silane) is a thick cream wax. *can dissolve in water*

“Closest ingredient-family evidence: dimethicone barrier products may protect skin, but efficacy depends on complete formulation rather than dimethicone alone.”
“Closest ingredient-family evidence: silicone compounds are widely used in moisturizers, sunscreens and color cosmetics for emolliency, occlusion/barrier effects, and sensory improvement.”
“Direct ingredient safety/conditioning-family evidence: stearyl dimethicone and related substituted methicone polymers are considered safe as used in cosmetics; these ingredients function mainly as skin/hair conditioning agents.”
