These sophisticated forms of silicone have the unique property of forming a thin, non-occlusive film on the skin. This helps the skin to retain moisture effectively and maintain it over the long term. Think of it as a semi-occlusive protective layer that allows the skin to ‘breathe’, whilst at the same time preventing moisture loss.
