Silkier lotions. More efficient shampoos and conditioners. Brighter, smoother, longer lasting cosmetics. Drier antiperspirants. More spreadable and effective sunscreens. Formulators in the personal care industry have long looked to Momentive for silicone ingredients to help them produce new products with benefits consumers can see and feel. And, we've put our more than 75 years of experience to good use creating a wide range of personal care solutions to do just that.


ANTIPERSPIRANT / DEODORANT

Consumers are working up a sweat when it comes to antiperspirants and deodorants. The days of these perspiration-busting products being purely utilitarian are gone. Both men and women are looking for deodorants that offer more skin-caring benefits. Our ingredients can help you produce underarm formulations that are easy to spread, moisturizing and feel smooth, dry and refreshing whether sprayed, rolled-on or applied in a different form.

MEN’S GROOMING

Male self care is no longer just about basic toiletries and shaving. Oily skin, acne or irritation now need to be met on a more gender-specific level with light, non-tacky formulations that also mask dark circles and minimize fine lines and wrinkles. And, for hair care, the modern man is moving beyond mere functionality to styling aids. Let our specialty ingredients help you create products that are easier to spread, offer interesting textures and leave hair and skin feeling its best.

COLOR COSMETICS

Sometimes beauty is just on the surface: by forming a film on skin, your personal care product formulations can have real staying power—and less transfer. Optical and sensory enhancing additives can blur wrinkles and smooth the texture and appearance of skin—leaving a luxurious feel. Our ingredients can help you create a  lasting sensory experience to connect with consumers on a deeper level.

SKIN CARE

Creating a meaningful beauty experience is all about the feel. How does the product make you feel? How does it affect your mood? Along with this psychological reaction, consumers link texture and thickness to quality and performance. Our ingredients offer a wide variety of sensory experiences that put the “wow” right there on your fingertips from anti-aging effects to interesting textures and moisturization. Make prestige the new normal.

HAIR CARE

Consumers refuse to accept that hair can be damaged beyond repair. Fortunately, so do we. Healthy hair should be soft, full, strong and shiny, not heavy, greasy or brittle. Our multifunctional ingredients can help repair and restore while moisturizing each strand, leaving hair easier to comb, wet or dry. Having the hair we want can take its toll. Our ingredients can help you create shampoos, conditioners and hair care treatments that help replenish hair’s youthful characteristics.

SUN CARE

Consumers have long been aware of the dangers of sun exposure. But now, more than ever, they are looking beyond those heavy creams and lotions slathered on to provide protection from the rays. Their attention is focused on products that play a variety of roles from anti-aging and skin conditioning to formulations that don’t transfer onto clothing. Our ingredients enable comfortable sun protection to be delivered from lotions, sprays and solid bars/sticks.
