This macadamia-based silicone alternative is made with moisturising macadamia esters, which mimic the skin's natural lipids thanks to its high palmitoleic acid content. This translates to a silky, smooth after-feel similar to silicones but with added benefits, such as excellent oxidative stability, high spreadability, and low slip. It can be gelled to mimic the properties of medium viscosity silicones and can impart a relatively high degree of skin hydration. It's a nature-derived alternative perfect for a wide range of applications.
