Silicone Surface-Treated Powders for Cosmetics

It was more than 30 years ago that silicone oil began to use for coating the surface of powder particles. This invention led to the development of two-way foundation powder which can be resistant to both oil and water. Sweatproof and waterproof makeup was the further development in this field, which has been mainly intended for women in sporty occasion.
Silicone surface-treated powders are excellent in their water repellency and dispersibility, which has been widely used as a functional filler in cosmetic products.
