Cetearyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer

Cetearyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer is a silicone-based polymer that creates a soft, smooth feel on the skin. It helps to blur the appearance of fine lines and pores by forming a flexible film. This ingredient also contributes to a matte finish and can improve the longevity of cosmetic products.
