Silica/ Hydrated Silica
Product Introduction
Cosmetic-grade silica has uniform granules and good oil absorption. When used in foundation and makeup products, it can improve skin texture and create a smooth and delicate makeup finish.
Our latest launched Hydrated Silica(UNI-SIL 200), with a silica content of over 97%, has good dispersibility and can be evenly dispersed in water, polyol, and oil. It is commonly used as an adsorbent in makeup and skincare formulations, providing a lubricating effect and ensuring safe and reliable usage. Some hydrated silica is also commonly used as a friction agent in scrubbing creams and toothpaste.
