Polysiloxangele zur Verwendung in der Kosmetik

Soft, creamy translucent and transparent gels suitable for use in cosmetic applications may be prepared by hydrosilylating an unsaturated MQ resin or its equivalent with an Si-H functional organopolysiloxane cross-linker having Si-H functionality along its polysiloxane backbone, in the presence of a low viscosity and preferably volatile organopolysiloxanes. The stable gels obtained may be converted to creamy gels of a wide range of consistency by simple shearing. Gel firmness can be maintained through addition of a catalyst inhibitor to the gel formulation.
