moisturising

overview

Silanetriol is a silicone-derived synthetic ingredient that helps improve skin hydration and may be used to enhance a formula’s aesthetics. It is more popular in hair care formulations, where it contributes to a smooth, soft feel. It is sometimes combined with wheat protein to help improve the tensile strength of hair. Some studies show it offers thermal protection to hair. Adenosilane is a natural component of the body and is used in cosmetics as an anti-aging ingredient that helps to soothe, restore and improve the appearance of aging.
