Hi friends:
I wanted to talk about the various types of silicones! Note - silicones are completely safe for your skin and hair. There are SO many different variations of silicones and how they perform on your hair and skin. I've highlighted the different types based on their chemistry! .
1. Evaporative - These silicones are volatile. They usually evaporate shortly after using using your product. There is zero build up. And the distribution is very even.
2. Easy wash out - These silicones don’t evaporate and are excellent at conditioning hair. Dimethicone may build up for damaged, curly or colored hair. However, all other hair types find that these are perfect at giving them the right amount of shine, spreadability, smoothness and heat protection.
3. No build up - This group consists of silicones that have “amo,” “amine” or “amino” in their name. This type of silicone sticks to your hair better. They form a positive charge which means they stay on your hair for longer. They also increase hair strength because they protect the hair strand from moisture evaporation.
4. Build up - These types of ingredients are non-water soluble which requires sulfates in order to remove them from your hair. That’s because they form a thick coating on your hair. Note - these ingredients are completely safe. They are excellent at heat protection. The downside is that they don’t allow moisture into the hair shaft which can cause easy breakage. .
As always, every hair type is different. These ingredients may or may not be problematic for your hair. It’s all about trial and error and what works best for your hair. .
I hope this was helpful! Comment below for any questions :)
Let’s try understanding the ingredients together
Save this post to always be prepared

Yesterday it was pointed out that many of my products are not super cgm safe. For example to use sulfates once in a while is totally ok, as long as there is a deep conditioning treatment afterwards, but certain silicones & alcohols can be death for the curls. ☠️
So here is a table that I found & summed up from naturallycurly.com, which helped me read and at least understand the ingredients. Hopefully it’s helpful for some of you too
For sure, it takes time & memorizing a lot of chemical ingredients until you can recognize cgm safe & not safe products. But to know the essentials is a legit first step!

Hi friends,
Let’s talk about Silicones. I have so much to share. I tried really hard to make this post simple, but educational and informative.
The word “silicone” may sometimes sound dirty, likely because it conjures thoughts of synthetic materials. The truth is that silicones synthetic. They’re made from a combination of silicon, oxygen, and often other elements—typically carbon and hydrogen. In that sense, silicones are derived from natural ingredients but undergo chemical processing in order to be used in products. The fact they they’re synthetic doesn’t make them inherently bad, though.
Silicones are LARGE and OPEN structures. Check out the structure of Silicone. It has a LARGE open space in between. This means it can freely allow water, air and actives to pass through. That’s pretty awesome, because it means it can allow any type of ingredients such as vitamin C, retinols, Niacinamide to pass through and get to work.
Finding a serum with a silicone base will be very helpful for actives to penetrate into your skin. There is absolutely no need to be scared of silicones in a skincare product. They are completely harmless. While silicones don’t stimulate collagen or help conditions such as hyperpigmentation, they are able to provide a quick fix for wrinkles, fine lines and a better sensory experience with cosmetics.
They are extremely smooth and emollient in texture due to their unique fluid properties. Overall, silicones are used to improve the feel, appearance and performance of all types of skincare (and haircare) products.
Silicones also create a nice barrier on the skin that locks moisture in. But, this barrier doesn’t suffocate skin. Skin doesn’t have lungs. Without lungs, it can’t breathe or be suffocated. Not to mention, silicones have so many gaps in their structures. That means they can trap water in without interfering with your skin’s natural functions.
I hope that the structure of silicones makes you understand WHY silicones do NOT clog pores and how it allows for penetration of other ingredients.
I really hope this was educational. Let me know if you have any questions or comments below!
Os silicones possuem função semelhante à dos petrolatos: formam uma camada, como um plástico filme, nos fios. Ele ajuda a desembaraçar os fios e controlar o frizz, mas o seu uso constante pode acabar semelhante o petrolato, já que muitos deles não são solúveis em água. Quero ressaltar que estou falando que os produtos insolúveis em água podem trazer malefícios aos fios.
.
Assim como os petrolatos, o silicone não trata o cabelo, possuem função condicionante e não hidratante. Nem tudo sai com o shampoo, necessitando às vezes lavar duas vezes ou usar shampoo antirresíduo, e essas lavagens fazem mal aos fios.
.
A questão dos silicones insolúveis é você pesar o que mais vale para sua rotina capilar. Se você está disposto a usar shampoo antirresíduo de 15 em 15 dias cheio de componentes que agridem seus fios e não se importa com isso; não há problema em usar silicone insolúvel, até porque ele os protege tanto do calor do secador e chapinha, mas os silicones solúveis também fazem isso.

Fiches mémo : Les ingrédients à bannir dans vos cosmétiques .
J'avais envie aujourd'hui de vous repartager ma liste de bons et mauvais ingrédients qui se cachent dans nos cosmétiques !
Pour vous aider à décrypter vous-même vos cosmétiques et ne plus vous faire avoir par les marques qui font du greenwashing ⚠️
.
Pour plus d'informations et pour savoir pourquoi il est nécessaire d'éviter ces ingrédients j'ai rédigé un article complet sur les ingrédients à bannir dans nos cosmétiques, il se trouve dans la catégorie "Décryptage" du blog (il est aussi disponible dans mon linktree dans ma barre d'info !)
.
À force de lire les listes INCI ça devient un automatisme et on reconnaît directement les mauvais ingrédients et les produits qui font du greenwashing.
.
En espérant que ces petites fiches vous soit utiles ✨
Et toi, tu décrypte toi-même tes produits ou tu utilises une application/site ?
What a fun and crazy weekend At @comic_con with @amcthewalkingdead 20 walkers a day for 4 days straight with just my small team and I. We sculpted and made mostly transfer pieces and vacu-form teeth fronts, and did small build ups with #artex silicon from @kryolanofficial In fact a BIG shout out and thank you to @kryolanofficial for sponsoring us this year. We used a lot of their products including their #icekits , #silicones, #siliconeglue, #fishskin, #prosaid and a number of stuff from them! Such great products and it’s all in how you use it!
We also used @maccosmetics for eye liners, makeup wipes and marula oil and Shea butter to help keep everyone’s skin in good shape!

#AD There are so many myths about silicones out there - but is there any truth behind them? My latest video (sponsored by @grant.industries) goes into the many many myths about silicones in skincare, make-up and haircare. Link in bio and stories! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

#AD Hair is pretty fragile, and also dead - so protecting what's there is super important to getting "healthy" hair! Silicones don't work for all hair types, and certain silicones will be better for different people, but it's underrated what silicones can do for hair. Silicones can smooth out the hair cuticle, which stops cuticle scales from snagging and breaking off when you comb your hair or just move your head around. Silicones can also make hair stronger and more resistant to snapping, plus protect it from heat damage.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My personal favourite is amodimethicone - I love how it makes my hair feel like it's almost undamaged, without weighing it down! I've been trying out the @elizavecca_ Cer-100 Collagen Coating Hair Protein Treatment lately which contains it, and I've been really impressed by how well it's working!
