Gransil PC-12

Gransil PC-12 is a C12 paraffinic gel free of cyclic silicones, which is made by dispersing silicone elastomer in isododecane fluid. The C12 fluid has a very sharp cut-off of low molecular weight components to provide the driest, silky feel while counteracting the oily feel of any other make-up ingredients. Gransil PC-12 is a very strong mattifying product, leaving the skin with the desired attributes of a matte, smooth and non-oily-look. The recommended usage level is 5 - 60% for skin care formulas and 5 - 25% for makeup applications
