The mechanism of action of methyl phenyl silicone oil in skin protection and treatment is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
Forming a protective film: Methyl phenyl silicone oil has low surface tension and good lubricity, which can form a uniform protective film on the surface of the skin. This film can effectively prevent the direct contact and stimulation of external substances (such as dust, bacteria, etc.) on the skin, while reducing the evaporation of skin water and keeping the skin moist.
Lubrication and softness: Methyl phenyl silicone oil has excellent lubrication properties, which can reduce the friction between the skin and external objects, thereby protecting the skin from mechanical damage. In addition, it can also give the skin a soft, smooth feeling and improve the touch of the skin.
Antistatic and breathable: methyl phenyl silicone oil has good antistatic properties, which can prevent the accumulation of static electricity on the skin surface, thereby reducing the stimulation of static electricity on the skin. At the same time, it also has a certain breathability, will not hinder the normal breathing of the skin.
Antioxidant and stability: Methyl phenyl silicone oil has antioxidant properties, which can resist the oxidation of free radicals and protect the skin from oxidative damage. In addition, it has a high stability in cosmetics and will not have adverse reactions with other ingredients, thus extending the shelf life of the product.
Improve the spreadability and stability of cosmetics: methyl phenyl silicone oil can improve the spreadability and stability of cosmetics, so that cosmetics are easier to apply and evenly distributed. For example, adding methyl phenyl silicone oil to liquid foundation can enhance its makeup holding effect and prevent makeup from peeling off due to sweat and oil.
Treatment of skin diseases: Methyl phenyl silicone oil is also used to treat certain skin diseases, such as dermatitis, eczema and so on. It reduces inflammation, relieves itching and promotes skin repair. For example, adding silicone oil to the ointment can improve the ability of the drug to penetrate the skin, thus enhancing the efficacy.
Sunscreen and anti-UV: methylphenyl silicone oil has certain anti-UV properties, can reflect or absorb ultraviolet light, protect the skin from ultraviolet light damage. This is especially important in sunscreen products.
Methyl phenyl silicone oil plays an important role in skin protection and treatment by forming protective film, lubricating skin, anti-oxidation, improving cosmetic properties and other mechanisms. It is safe and suitable for a variety of skin types and applications.
