BELSIL® EG 6000 elastomer gel is a silicone copolymer network blended with a volatile dimethicone. It appears as a transparent, colourless gel providing a very pleasant sensation during the application and after use. It can act as a thickener in formulations. In addition, it exhibits shear thinning behaviour, which allows formulating cosmetic products that spread easily during application and facilitates the incorporation of pigments into a formulation. BELSIL® EG 6000 is easy to distribute on skin and gives a very smooth, non-greasy, silky skin feel. It leaves a non-tacky film which improves matte effect on skin. It also can add a cushiony feel. It can act as a thickening agent. In pressed powder cosmetics, it acts as binder. It is a very versatile ingredient for various skin care and colour cosmetic products.
