Science

Mechanism of Action

Polysilicone-25 operates by forming a surface film that conditions the skin, contributing to a smoother feel. In cosmetic formulations, it acts as an emulsion stabilizer, preventing the separation of oil and water phases to maintain product consistency and efficacy over time.

Verdict

Insufficient Data

While Polysilicone-25 offers emulsion stabilization and conditioning properties with a low irritancy profile, the absence of specific clinical efficacy data and a comprehensive safety review by the CIR limits a definitive assessment of its overall value.
