Hydration continues to be a top skin care beauty trend, and is perceived as the key to healthy and vibrant skin. To propel this trend forward, Shin-Etsu Silicones of America (SESA) has advanced its line of super-hydrating PG-modified silicone emulsifiers, with ingredients that are silicones functionalized with polyglycerin groups.
This polyglycerin modified family of products has demonstrated, through in-vitro measurements, outstanding humectancy which is used to retain essential moisture. The resulting formulations deliver unique, versatile textures, including serums, lotions, creams, balms and sticks with exquisite skin feel. Notably, the PG-modified series is also PEG-free (polyethylene glycol free).
Ultimately, the series’ polyglycerin-based benefits provide essential functionality in achieving superior hydration, moisturization, and ease-of-use. The series’ versatility also allows formulators to leverage specific ingredients to achieve products with a wide array of properties in terms of feeling–from light & fresh to rich & nourishing.
SESA’s new generation of PG-modified cosmetic silicone formulations work alone and collectively to deliver synergistic sensory, stability, and functionality benefits based on their application for a wide variety of cosmetic products.
Key products/formulations in the cosmetic silicone system include:

This achieves unlimited looks and feels such as light, fresh, smooth, silky, etc.”
