๐ฌ How It Actually Works
A cyclic silicone very similar to D5, but with a slightly larger ring structure. It evaporates slightly slower, giving you more "play time" to blend in foundations or heavy creams.
๐ Why your skin loves it
Improves product texture, reduces stickiness, and leaves a silky finish.
๐ก Pro Tip
Often formulated alongside Cyclopentasiloxane.
โ๏ธ Myth vs. Fact
It causes acne.
Like D5, it evaporates completely and is strictly non-comedogenic.
