Silicone emulsifiers for water-in-oil systems provide a smooth and silky feel, wash-off resistance, substantivity, improved barrier properties, emolliency, and ease of use. PEG/PPG-19/19 dimethicone in cyclopentasiloxane, a volatile silicone (below left). PEG/PPG-19/19 dimethicone in isoparaffin, a volatile organic (below right). The newest silicone emulsifiers offer broader options for the oil phase and increase textural possibilities. Earlier work identified primary parameters affecting formulation viscosity and stability: water-to-silicone/oil ratio, mixing process, emulsifier level, external phase viscosity, and presence or lack of coemulsifier [1]. In this study, impact of emulsifier structure and carrier on particle size and the influence of oil phase density on final emulsion viscosity are reviewed in more detail. In addition, new formulation concepts illustrate broader emulsifier capabilities: Stabilization and delivery of fragile actives such as vitamin C in a cream with high moisturization potential and a nongreasy, smooth feel. Stabilization 2 of low-viscosity fluid foundation. Introduction Recent studies gave recommendations for formulating with water-in-silicone+oil formulations [1]: The (glycerin+water)-in-silicone emulsion showed sensory improvements compared to pure glycerin. Faster absorption Reduced gloss Powdery feel provided by the silicone elastomer Tackiness before absorption (99.9%) Tackiness after absorption (99.9%) Most of the oil phase is dimethicone, 2 cSt; therefore, the carrier of the emulsifier itself is somewhat diluted. Impact on particle size might be explained by difference in availability for the emulsifier when delivered in a silicone or an organic carrier. Impact of oil phase density on emulsion viscosity Moisturizing properties of the high level (glycerin+ water)-in-silicone emulsion are equivalent to those of pure glycerin. Specific gravity of isododecane = 0.74; 20 g = 27 mL. Specific gravity of cyclopentasiloxane = 0.95; 20 g = 21 mL. 250 Moisturization Increase vs. Untreated Skin (%) 1 1 Direct replacement would affect oil/water ratio, resulting in lower viscosity for final emulsion. When changing oil phases, consider density and modify oil/water phase ratio to obtain viscosity that ensures optimum stability. of the oil phase (i.e., polarity and compatibility with the emulsifier) also impacts viscosity and stability. 200 150 100 50 0 Two novel formulation concepts were developed based on the new silicone emulsifier technologies. The current work provides additional insight on parameters that influence final emulsion characteristics and support new formulation concepts. Materials and Methods New silicone polyethers evaluated: PEG/PPG-19/19 dimethicone (and) C13-16 isoparaffin (and) C10-13 isoparaffin PEG-10 Glycerin-in-silicone systems for vitamin C stabilization Until recently, stability and poor aesthetics limited the success of this approach. New silicone polyethers, such as PEG-10 dimethicone and PEG/PPG-19/19 dimethicone, allow formulation of polyol-in-silicone emulsions with stable viscosity. High level of silicone elastomer in the emulsions gives good sensory profiles. dimethicone Glycerin-in-Silicone Emulsion Existing materials: Cyclopentasiloxane dimethicone Cyclopentasiloxane crosspolymer (and) PEG/PPG-19/19 (and) PEG-12 dimethicone Summary of procedure: recorded with rheometer after one day and one month.

Emulsions observed under light-reflecting microscope at one day and one month. Stability of Systems Containing 10% Vitamin C as a Function of Water Content (50°C) Glycerin-in-Silicone Emulsion (Glycerin+Water)in-Silicone Emulsion Water-in-Silicone Emulsion After 3 days For emulsions containing fragile active, stability observed at 50°C after one month. Vitamin C stability data further evaluated using HPLC (mobile phase; trifluoroacetic acid/methanol; 95/5; flow 1.5mL/min; temperature: 22°C). Conditions used to evaluate potential impact of emulsifier structure and carrier on emulsion particle size: After 1 month Formulation: W/Si ratio 80/20, emulsifier level 1% (nondispersed), silicone phase composed of dimethicone, 2 cSt. Particle Results and Discussion Molecular weight of the emulsifier can affect particle size.
