Product Benefits – LIGHTWEIGHT LEAVE-IN HAIR SERUM WITH DIMETHICONE 350
Cyclomethicone provides a lightweight, silky feel and helps the serum spread easily through the hair.
Dimethicone 350 helps smooth the hair surface, improve slip and shine, reduce friction and make the hair feel softer.
Grapeseed Oil provides lightweight conditioning.
Jojoba Oil helps soften and condition the hair.
Argan Oil adds conditioning and shine.
Vitamin E provides antioxidant protection for the oils.
Important Formulation Information
This is an anhydrous, water-free hair serum. Because there is no water phase, a conventional water-phase preservative and pH adjustment are not required.
Do not heat the formulation. Cyclomethicone is volatile, so keep the container closed as much as possible during manufacture and avoid unnecessary exposure to heat.
Use clean, completely dry equipment and packaging.
Before commercial sale, conduct appropriate stability, compatibility and packaging testing on the finished product.
