Description
Dimethicone (350 cSt) is a medium-viscosity polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)—a linear silicone polymer. The “350 cSt” refers to its viscosity (centistokes), meaning it’s thicker than very light silicones but still fluid and easily spreadable. It forms a smooth, breathable film on skin or hair, giving slip, protection, and a soft feel.
