Gransil VL-15
Gransil VL-15 is a silicone blend of 15% of a super-high viscosity dimethiconol silicone with an ecocert approved, vegetable derived coconut alkanes and coco-caprylate/caprate solvent/emollient. Gransil VL-15 provides an exceptionally silky feel and prolonged substantivity, and leaves a soft film on skin to protect the skin moisture. When combined with oils, Gransil VL-15 effectively eliminates disfavored tacky feel. The recommended usage level is 1–10% for general skin-care, hair-care and makeup formulations.
