  • pH restrictions β€” the finished product must stay within a specific pH range
  • Mandatory labelling β€” certain allergens must be listed on the packaging

Texture & Feel

Texture & Feel

Expected texture
Viscous, serum-like β€” slightly "thick water" feel
SpreadabilityVery easy
AbsorptionVery fast
Tackiness / ResidueNone
Finish:Luminous / radiant β€” subtle light-reflecting glow

Silicones create a smooth, velvety "slip" with a blurring sensory effect. Slight initial tackiness that fades into a hydrated dewy finish.
