Gransil SWM
Gransil SWM is a silicone-in-water moisturizing gel containing a combination of moisturizers such as glycerin and glycols, Vitamins and linoleic acid. As a result of the matched refractive indices of both the water phase and the silicone gel phase, Gransil SWM exhibits an attractive clear gel appearance. When used as a moisturizing gel, it features the following distinctive benefits:
- Excellent silky, soft powdery feel
- Smooth and comfortable to apply
- Prolonged superior moisturizing characteristics
- Desired nutritious benefits
Gransil SWM is also recommended as body gel, hand gel, after-shave gel, message gel and eye gel. A liquid color or fragrance can be incorporated without affecting the clarity of the gel. Gransil SWM also can be easily used to formulate a translucent lotion or a serum. The addition of water and cyclomethicones will lead to a desired viscosity.
