How To Improve Greasy & Sticky Feel in Skincare Products?
Table of Contents
What causes greasy and sticky skincare texture?
Many skincare formulas feel heavy and sticky after applying on skin. Traditional oily raw materials stay on the skin surface, forming thick oil film, which leads to poor spreadability, sticky touch and slow absorption. Proper selection of silicone raw materials can optimize this skin feel.
Main application scenarios
Facial cream, body lotion, sunscreen, primer, serum and other cosmetic formulation development, cosmetic raw material screening, skincare product texture optimization.
Core knowledge
Different types of silicone bring different skin feel. Volatile silicone evaporates quickly, leaving non-greasy silky sensation on skin.
Low viscosity dimethicone can improve spreadability, reduce heavy oily feeling, without blocking pores easily.
Match silicone with emollient reasonably. It can balance moisturizing performance and avoid sticky residue after application.
Adjust dosage: excessive addition of oil phase materials will still cause stickiness. Formula trial is required to find the best proportion.
Reminder: Choose cosmetic-grade silicone raw materials that comply with cosmetic regulations for skincare formulation.
