FORMULATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF SILICONE DERIVATIVE BASED MOISTURIZING LOTION: HARNESSING THE SYNERGISTIC EFFECTS OF DIMETHICONE (AND) CETEARYL DIMETHICONE CROSS POLYMER
Cosmetics are becoming more important in daily life as they are used regularly by increased number of people and very large quantities are consumed each year. If the purpose of cosmetics is examined, the most obvious is protection of the body from the element of nature, such as heat, sunlight and microbes. In modern society, the primary goals of using cosmetics are personal hygiene, improving attractiveness through the use of make-up, boosting self-confidence and, protecting the skin from UV rays, pollutants, and other environmental factors, preventing ageing, and generally assisting people in living more fulfilling lives. Moisturizing lotion plays a crucial role in maintaining the health and appearance of the skin. Some important role of moisturizing lotions are hydration by restoring skin’s moisture and preventing TEWL, skin protection, skin elasticity and smoothness etc. Silicone derivatives in moisturizing lotions contribute to their efficacy by providing enhanced moisture retention, improving texture and skin feel, and facilitating the delivery of active ingredients, ultimately promoting optimal skin hydration and overall skin health. Although silicone derivatives are frequently found in personal care products, such as moisturizers, there are some common myths about their usage. Few typical misconceptions are: they clog pores and cause acne, they can suffocate the skin, they are toxic, it prevents other beneficial ingredients from working, it causes long term damage to the skin, and it can harm the environment. Misconceptions and myths about silicones in cosmetics can lead to confusion among consumers. Conducting research and disseminating accurate information helps educate consumers about the benefits and safety of silicones. This empowers consumers to make informed choices and dispels any unwarranted fears or concerns they may have regarding the use of silicones in cosmetics. The current research work has been undertaken to formulate and evaluate the properties of silicone in moisturizing lotion.
