Silky-Smooth Hair in Record Time – Lotion-to-Water Formulations with Three Times the Benefit
After a workout, you shouldn't have to spend a lot of time making your hair soft and attractive again. Innovative lotion-to-water formulations based on our BELSIL® silicones will save you time and energy: unlike traditional conditioners, these can simply be worked into towel-dried hair – for record results in record time.
Lotion-to-Water Formulations with Three Times the Benefit – a Few Highlights:
- Highly effective BELSIL® DADM 3240 E emulsion and BELSIL® GB 3010 gum blend – the latter formulated with a volatile solvent – envelop hair and provide lasting protection.
- Together, these two silicone products deliver silky smooth hair that is easy to comb, saving time and water with no need for rinsing.
- And delivering a supple shine, even for damaged hair.
Tell Your Hair to Relax. This Anti-Frizz Hair Oil Will Make It Settle Down.
Going to the gym with unruly hair? No way! Our new anti-frizz formulation tackles flyaways and frizz. What’s more, our special composition relies on biodegradable solvents for silicones.
Laboratory tests show that our innovative formulation can well match any of its cyclopentasiloxane-based counterparts.
Anti-Frizz Hair Oil – a Few Highlights
- BELSIL® GB 3010 is the new alternative to conventional gum blends for hair-care products. The biodegradable solvent (isododecane) evaporates completely after application.
- In addition, this creates a silky-smooth hair texture when used with the elastomer gel BELSIL® eco EG 3001. Instead of opting for a siloxane-based solvent, WACKER chose to rely on an organic mixture of undecane and tridecane that is completely degraded in the environment by microorganisms. The methanol required in the silicone production process is replaced by biomethanol.
- Our silicone resin BELSIL® TMS 803 effectively controls frizz, even in conditions of high humidity.
- Our silicone oil BELSIL® PF 100 has a high refractive index, which is instrumental in giving your hair its glossy look.
Easy-Comb Spray – Even for Tough Cases
The quick solution to gaining control over long hair after a swim or a visit to the sauna – a conditioner and easy-comb spray all in one. After application, hair can be effortlessly detangled and made to shine down to the tips.
Easy-Comb Spray – a Few Highlights
- BELSIL® GB 3010 is the new alternative to conventional gum blends for hair-care products. The biodegradable solvent (isododecane) evaporates completely after application.
- BELSIL® PF 100 silicone oil gives your hair the glossy look.
- When the two silicone products are used together, the result is silky-soft hair. In other words, no more unpleasant pulling when combing – wet or dry.
- The volatile silicone fluid BELSIL® DM 0.65 serves as the carrier.
Fresh in No Time – with the Right Cooling Lotion
Dab it on your face after a workout and feel this lotion soothe your skin and make you feel fresh. The gentle formula is quickly absorbed, nourishing stressed skin and speeding up the cooling process.
Cooling Lotion – a Few Highlights
- BELSIL® eco EG 3001 elastomer gel creates a silky feel on the skin. Thanks to its shear-thinning properties, the lotion is easy to spread. Instead of a siloxane-based solvent, BELSIL® eco EG 3001 uses a mixture of undecane and tridecane that is fully degraded in the environment by microorganisms. BELSIL® eco EG 3001 is based on biomethanol made from renewable raw materials and integrated into the production process using the mass balance method.
- BELSIL® CDM 3526 VP silicone wax improves the spreadability of the lotion. This also makes the skin feel pleasant and not sticky.
Anti-Chafing Cream – to Make Everything Run Smoothly
A potential companion of anyone who goes jogging or rides a bike regularly: chafing. With our new formulation, chafing and blisters will soon be a thing of the past. As soon as the cream is absorbed, a water-repellent, breathable, protective film covers the skin, reducing friction.
The anti-chafing effect sets in quickly. All you need to do is simply apply the cream before starting your fitness routine.
Anti-Chafing Cream – a Few Highlights
- Thanks to its water-break effect, BELSIL® REG 1103 B elastomer gel produces impressive results. After application, a water-repellent yet breathable film is formed. This prevents chafing.
- BELSIL® DM 3096 gum blend makes your skin feel soft and silky. Its lubricity provides elasticity and improves your skin’s resistance to friction.
Film-Forming Body Oil – Protective Padding for the Skin
Our new body oil formulation protects your skin against irritation, regardless of whether you’re going the extra mile or simply relaxing. Among long-distance runners, for instance, the film-forming oil prevents chafing. In the regeneration phase, it pampers your skin and gives it the feeling of being wrapped in protective padding.
Body Oil – a Few Highlights
- BELSIL® eco REG 1102 elastomer gel forms a transparent film on the skin that feels like a protective padding.
- BELSIL® eco DM 3096 gum blend makes your skin feel silky smooth, and, thanks to its lubricity, soft and elastic.
- BELSIL® eco DM 100 silicone fluid displays very good spreading characteristics and improves sensory properties.
Another highlight is that the emphasis in manufacturing the silicone products used was on sustainability and saving resources. In this regard, methanol that is usually obtained from fossil sources was substituted by biomethanol produced from renewable raw materials.
Antiperspirant Stick – Gentle, yet Powerful
A pleasant skin feel and protection you can trust – our new antiperspirant formulation not only stops annoying underarm wetness and resulting body odor; your skin also remains supple after application. When on the road, the handy stick is inconspicuous and can be kept out of sight in your backpack or handbag.
Antiperspirant Stick – a Few Highlights
- BELSIL® eco EG 3001 silicone elastomer gel makes your skin feel protected in a layer of padding. Environmentally friendly: instead of the usual siloxane-based solvent, WACKER uses an undecane and tridecane solvent blend that is completely degraded by microorganisms.
- HDK® H15 pyrogenic silica stabilizes the formulation. It prevents the active aluminum powder from clumping and the film from turning white on the skin.
- BELSIL® CDM 3526 VP silicone wax and BELSIL® DM 5 silicone oil improve the spreadability of the formulation.
In-Shower Body Lotion for Instant Gentle Care
The in-shower body lotion is the perfect choice for those who cannot spend much time on elaborate beauty rituals after a workout. Within seconds, you get the feeling that your skin is perfectly maintained.
