C lean beauty is something everyone is talking about with-
out ever defining it. While the specifics may vary, most
retailers, brands and even consumers agree the key pillars
include: safety, sustainability, ethics and transparency.
In attempt to decode this market phenomenon, consider
this quote from Gregg Renfrew, CEO and founder of Beau-
tycounter: “[O]ur mission is to get safer products into the hands of everyone … ”
Beautycounter grew 27% between 2017-2018, and in 2018, it was the most searched
beauty brand online in the U.S., generating $320 million in sales for the year, per NPD num-

bers. That makes it not only the largest digital-native
brand, but also one of the top stand-alone brands
in all of beauty. The brand even sent reps to Capitol
Hill in 2018 to lobby Congress to act on preventing
“harmful” ingredients from being used in beauty and
personal care. This activism represents a growing
embrace of the precautionary principle— the world
view held by many consumers and upstart brands.
The growing reality is consumers want brands
and retailers to deliver products that are thoughtfully
designed to have the least possible negative impact
on human health, the environment and society—as
they, the shopper, define it. This no doubt rightfully
rankles plenty of suppliers and chemists who are
frustrated by the nuances and technical realities that
are all too often lost in the conversation. But there
are ways to use emerging green technologies, safe
synthetics, consumer education and institutional
technical know-how to find new paths forward.
Free From ‘Free-from’
What’s not in a product has become the focus of
the beauty industry in recent years. It’s no surprise,
then, that data from Nielsen shows “free-from
artificial fragrance” brand dollar sales rose 2% in
2018, compared with 0.1% for the total personal
care sector. These now represent about 28.2% of the
total market.
Meanwhile, retailer no-no lists provide a strong
tool of trust-building and differentiation for retailers
of all sizes. SpaceNK, for instance, states that clean
beauty “refers to any formulation that is free from a
list of potentially harmful and irritating ingredients,
and instead uses a combination of plants, vitamins,
minerals and botanical extracts to help restore skin
to its optimum health and vitality.” The company
adds, “Clean also refers to products and brands that
showcase a concerted effort to manufacture more
consciously, whether it be recycled packaging or
sustainable ingredients.”
At the same time, the Clean at Sephora program
features products “formulated without SLS, SLES,
parabens, formaldehyde, phthalates and mineral
2019 Clean Beauty E-book www.grantinc.com
oils.” Qualifying products feature a Clean at Sephora
sticker. These designations also serve to make it
easier for consumers to determine which choices are
“best” in an increasingly crowded marketplace filled
with countless upstart indie brands.
But not all free-from claims are embraced equal-
ly by consumers. For instance, Nielsen data shows
clean brands that eschew specific no-no ingredients
and key artificial ingredients grew by 4.2% in 2018,
compared with brands that merely declared them-
selves artificial-free, which grew by just 2.6% in 2018.
Another Nielsen report noted, “In our study … ‘free
from’ claims didn’t stand out as much to consumers
as some of the specific ingredient mentions, but over-
arching ‘free from harsh chemicals’ and ‘non-toxic
ingredients’ themes were very believable to achieve
various skin care benefits.”
Brands that operate in the EU have an added
challenge: The latest update to the EU’s EC No.
655/2013 regulation now prohibits free-from claims
as of July 1, 2019. The latest annex prohibits the use
of free-from claims for ingredients prohibited by
the EU Cosmetics Regulation (e.g., heavy metals);
for formulations that are merely in compliance with
the law; for ingredients that aren’t supposed to be
present in the product; for products that leverage an
ingredient for specific attributes (e.g., preservation
or fragrance) without claiming those attributes (e.g.,
an aromatic material not claimed as a fragrance),
unless that attribute is a side function of the general
ingredient family; or for ingredients/ingredient fami-
lies that are legally used. Notably, there are instances
where free-from claims will be allowed, including des-
ignations for vegan products (i.e., free-from animal-
derived products).
The Case for
Safe Synthetics
The beauty industry, just like the foods industry,
has suffered from the false equivalency of natural
with safety. However, in the age of veganism and
safe ingredients, conventional materials have a role
to play. For instance, silicones are an inert, non-

reactive technology that boosts the sensory impact
of products without skin irritation. These materi-
als also comply with the Clean at Sephora beauty
standards. At the same time, consumers have real
concerns about sourcing ethics when it comes to
naturals, with palm oil and coconut oil often in
the spotlight. In fact, according to Mintel, 74% of
Spanish beauty and personal care consumers are
concerned that ingredients used in natural products
are not sustainable.
Ethical and sustainability considerations have
helped fuel the use of responsible synthetic op-
tions throughout the beauty industry. For instance,
Mintel found synthetic beeswax appeared in 5% of
global makeup launches in 2018, compared with 3%
in 2014. Carmine launches dropped from 37% to
23% between 2013 and 2018. Cruelty-free makeup
brushes with synthetic fibers are also on the rise
Conventional chemistry can continue to play a role
in improving the sourcing and sustainability ethics
of the beauty industry and score points for sound
science in the process.
Meet the Skintellectuals
The beauty industry may have an emerging ally
in getting the word out about the benefits of cosmet-
ic ingredients of all kinds. Skintellectuals are true
beauty nerds. They’re hyper-knowledgeable about
brands, products and ingredients and are probably
least likely to utter the phrase “if I can’t pronounce
the name, I don’t want it in my products.”
The skintellectual is the answer to the over-
whelming anti-technological attitude found among
a significant number of beauty consumers who prize
natural above all else. These consumers understand
why ingredients are included in products and can
explain what, exactly, they do.
But they’re also demanding. They want formulas
that work hard and deliver clinic-standard results
at-home. These consumers can also be leveraged by
4 | www.CosmeticsandToiletries.com www.grantinc.com
marketers and savvy social media teams to advocate
for science-based conversations about products that
focus on safety, efficacy and value.
Go Blue or Go Home
Brands in the clean/sustainable space grew rapidly
in 2018, including Tata Harper (38%), Kopari (66%)
and Coola (59%), according to NPD data. Many
brands have adopted green practices that focus on
limiting harm to people and the planet, while offering
transparency around ingredients and business prac-
tices. A subset of those brands have evolved further,
pushing into what’s known as blue beauty, which seeks
to avoid harm while also addressing or undoing dam-
age from the past.
This blue mindset takes the form not just of zero
waste, but also of generating negative carbon foot-
prints. Companies operating in this space will leverage
closed loop concepts, as seen with some packaging
pilot programs under way with P&G, Unilever and
others, in addition to upcycling concepts, reusable
technologies, truly recyclable materials that won’t ulti-
mately end up in a landfill, and, interestingly, focusing
on boosting the economic well-being of a wider swath
of society. (For more on this subject, see the July/Au-
gust issue of Cosmetics & Toiletries).
2019 Clean Beauty E-book
 This activity, paired with transparency, has a payoff. Accord-
ing to NPD data, 78% of consumers trust transparent brands more
than conventional companies, while 73% are willing to pay more for
products from transparent brands.

Label to Lab: 7 Strategies

What does clean beauty mean from a technical standpoint?
Initiated by food consumers, this movement started with the “clean
label” mindset. It meant omitting artificial flavors and colors; using
pure and safe ingredients; and minimizing additives, which ultimate-
ly shortened ingredient lists to the essentials—especially those with
familiar-sounding names. Rachel L. Grabenhofer
Similarly, clean beauty follows many of the same tenets: remov- C&T Managing Editor

t the heart of the argument for the creation of new sus-

tainability protocols and standards are the changing
Imogen Matthews
demands of the beauty and personal care consumer.
Consultant to in-cosmetics New research from Canadean1 confirms that 51% of
consumers globally say their beauty and grooming
product choices are often or always influenced by how
environmentally friendly/socially responsible the brand is.
“Living ethically is of growing importance to today’s consumers, particu-
larly as awareness of social and environmental issues grows,” said Jamie
Mills, analyst at Canadean. “This can be attributed to the accessibility to
information, as well as those issues being at the forefront of global and

6 | www.CosmeticsandToiletries.com www.grantinc.com 2019 Clean Beauty Ebook

national agendas. In turn, this concern is
trickling down to influence the choices of
today’s consumers.”
Mills argued that accreditation for
issues such as fair trade and recyclable
packaging are an imperative, as is greater
action by brands to include sustainability
initiatives at the product level and across
the wider brand ethos.
Beauty’s
Sustainability Leaders
So which brands are doing it best? Sus-
tainability pioneer Weleda, for example, has
undertaken ethical sourcing of raw materials
for decades, while Neal’s Yard Remedies was
the first UK high street retailer to go carbon
neutral. Neal’s Yard Remedies purchases car-
bon offsets from wind power projects in India
and China, supplied by The CarbonNeutral
Company, and has devised a “Carbon Action
Plan” to deliver its carbon emission reductions.
The brand uses its CarbonNeutral certification
in advertising, catalogs, shop windows and
its website.
“What has changed in recent years is that
large multinationals and conventional brands
are also now investing in sustainability,” said
Amarjit Sahota, CEO of Organic Monitor. “It is
common for many such companies to develop
natural lines (reflecting green formulations),
reducing packaging footprints, etc.”
Another approach is for companies to “buy
green expertise,” such as Unilever’s purchase of
the green brand Seventh Generation, with the
plan to re-engineer its product formulations.
Waste Not
Beauty companies including Unilever and
P&G are recognizing the commercial benefits
of reducing energy use and water footprints
and optimizing waste management.
Grupo Boticário, the second largest cosmet-
ics company in Brazil, has switched to green
polyethylene packaging for its Cuide-se Bem
brand. The polyethylene is made from sugar,
rather than petroleum, saving more than 90
tons of plastics per year.
“There are also cost benefits since moving to
eco-design, as there is 10% less plastic material
used in the packaging,” said Sahota. “Similarly,
2019 Clean Beauty Ebook www.grantinc.com Cosmetics & Toiletries®
Sustainability is a nebulous
term but has been moving
up the public’s political and
economic agenda.
P&G has made a commitment to have zero
waste to landfill; it currently has 68 zero-waste
manufacturing sites across the globe.”
Less is More
Sometimes, brands come unstuck when
taking a particular stance. Taking parabens
out of formulations, for example, was once
a ploy used to sell products. Only two of
the parabens in use in the industry actually
showed mild toxicity upon scientific review,
but now microbiome science is again bringing
the issue of preservation back into focus.2
However, Marie Alice Dibon, founder of
Alice Communications Inc., explained that
companies that jump on the latest sustain-
ability issue often do so without correct
knowledge of the science behind it.
“Understand it,” she advised. “Hire the peo-
ple that can help you communicate internally
about it, informing all levels. Not everyone
needs a Ph.D. in science but everyone who
works in our industry needs to understand at
least the basics and follow the news.”
Authentically Sustainable
According to Dibon, authenticity and ethics
are values that run throughout an organiza-
tion but are tricky to communicate.
“They’re not [just] injected into a product
one morning because we choose to convey
them now,” she explained.
Dibon believes the beauty industry needs to
be proactive in setting industry guidelines as
well as labels to reassure the consumer. If the
big players apply best practices, they will pull
the industry up as a whole.
“We can’t make the same mistake we did
with organic products,” she warned, “with too

 Replacing Microplastics
There are still significant scientific challenges
to finding replacements for
microplastic particles.
Based on these risks and consumer con-
cern, the use of microplastic particles, i.e.,
microbeads, in personal care products has been
prohibited in the United States as of January
2018. The British government also banned per-
sonal care products containing microplastics as
of January 2018, and several additional countries
in the EU are discussing similar bans.
While efforts are being made to phase them
out, microplastics are still used in some cosmetic
products; most commonly exfoliants. As soft
abrasives, these formulas help to remove dead
skin cells and stimulate blood circulation. In
addition, microplastics are used in some coun-
tries as abrasive particles for dental care.8
It is true that cosmetics represent a small
source of primary and secondary microplastics
in the environment, compared with other
sources. One report showed 4,300 tons of
microplastic particles were used in EU personal
care products in 2012.9 However, it is a source
that could easily be avoided using natural or
biodegradable alternatives.
Yet, there are still significant scientific chal-
lenges to finding replacements for microplastic
particles. Alternatives must satisfy requirements
for cleansing effects but also be biodegradable
and available at moderate costs. Several attempts
have been made to replace plastic microbeads
using natural particles such as hydrogenated
waxes, silica, sugar, salt and crushed plant stones
or nut shells.10 However, their scientific features
and effects have room for improvement.

alternative with good efficacy. The first objec-
tive was to define the criteria for the desired
characteristics, to produce optimal replace-
ments for specific microplastic particles.
This included finding the ideal size, shape,
hardness and surface morphologies, to obtain
the desired characteristics without causing
skin irritation.
From this information, biodegradable
cellulose particles were derived from various
sources and modified using a milling and
grinding technology. Their microstructures
were analyzed, and their abrasion and clean-
ing effects were tested for applicability in
facial exfoliants and toothpastes. This article
presents the results of these tests in relation to
facial exfoliants.
Material and Methods
Natural cellulose and reference particles:
Generally, the cellulose particles used in this
studya-c were made from organic and renew-
able raw materials. Natural cellulose particles
vary in terms of their particle shape and size,
which enables different functionalities in line
with the specific targets of cosmetic applica-
tions. Cellulose from different natural sources
was tested, including beecha, oatb and wheatc.
Reference particles including silica and
polyethylene were used for comparison.
Exfoliant formulas: In vitro measurements
for abrasion and cleansing effects were per-
formed with a water-based exfoliant formula
(see Formula 1). As noted, cellulose particles
were compared with polyethylene and stan-
dard silica abrasives in identical formulations,
each including a different particle at 3%. Two
market references containing polyethylene and
silica also were used as benchmarks.

microscopy (SEM)d. To avoid charging effects,
the particles were coated with an ultra-thin
platinum film by magnetron sputtering.
Validation of biodegradability: Biode-
gradability was verified according to DIN EN
14851 under fresh water conditions. This is
accomplished by determining the ultimate
aerobic biodegradability in an aqueous medium
by measuring the oxygen demand in a closed
respirometer. Cellulose particles were tested in
comparison with polyethylene beads and stan-
dard silica of similar particle sizes and shapes.
Silica was included as a reference as it became
established as one of the most-used natural
alternatives to polyethylene in exfoliants.
Abrasion and cleansing efficacy tests: Tests
to determine abrasion and cleansing efficacy
were performed in a brushing simulatore at a
pressure of 150 g with a 1 cm hub. Mechanical
abrasion was evaluated on a glass substrate (25
× 25 mm2) coated with a 1-µm layer of chrome.
This coating was deemed to be the most
reproducible variant in pre-tests. The substrates
were fixed on a sample holder (75 × 25 mm2) by
double-sided adhesive tape.
Before brushing, the coating was briefly
wetted with water under standardized condi-
tions.One gram of the exfoliant formulation was
applied to the sample holder. The slurry was
renewed after 30 min. The brushing unite was

applied onto the synthetic skin leather in the
sample holder. The brushing unit was equipped
with a makeup sponge fixed on a silicone

salt and crushed plant stones or nut shells.
Results: Biodegradability
The results of biodegradability tests are
depicted in Figure 2, which show the distribu-
tion of the non-degraded residue and degraded
parts of the particles after a time of 39 days.
Depending on the origin and shape of the
cellulose particle, its biodegradability ranged
between 78–100% after 1–2 months. While
cellulose will always degrade at 100%,11 PE
particles are non-biodegradable12 and silica
does not degrade due to its mineral origin.
Results: Abrasion Efficacy
The results for abrasion are shown in

significantly lower abrasion in comparison
with silica (p < 0.001). The abrasion behavior
of the cellulose particles was comparable to
polyethylene particles and to commercial
product 1, which also contained polyethylene
(p > 0.001). The most abrasive sample was
commercial product 2, containing silica.
The measurements also showed that
different cellulose particle sizes produced
different exfoliation levels. The combination
of two particles with different sizes, notably
globular beech cellulose at 100 µm and 300
µm, resulted in higher abrasion, in compari-
son with the individual abrasiveness of each of

 What is Clean Beauty?
Clean Beauty is all about ingredient safety over source incorporating both synthetic and natural
materials. While maybe a surprise to many not all natural ingredients are safe and not all
synthetic ingredients are unsafe. With Clean Beauty, brands are focused on not using materials
that are known to be harmful or irritating but instead ones that are safe and efficacious.

Why do silicones fit into Clean Beauty?

Along with their safety, enhanced performance of active ingredients, compatibility with other
materials including naturals, and the unmatched sensory acceptance, silicones are extremely
valuable and desired for cosmetic formulations. Besides the basic cosmetic products, silicones
are used extensively in OTC, baby care, medical applications, and sensitive skin products
due to their non-irritating characteristics. Silicones are also not animal derived and therefore
approved by vegans as a cruelty free materials. They are not related to palm and RSPO issues
and are certified as GMO free. The types of silicones used in cosmetic products are supported
by scientific research and are considered extremely safe for consumer use. Silicones are
effective, inert, and versatile ingredients that benefit skin and hair in numerous ways.

Includes scientific information and expert industry opinion

as to why silicones support the Clean Beauty ideology.

cellulose represents a mild, patch-test approved
and non-irritating alternative to other natural
scrubs and shows 100% biodegradability.

 Featuring the unparalleled skin safety, versatility, and
performance benefits of silicones in personal care applications

THE POLYSILICONE-11® ADVANTAGE:

• Unparalleled skin safety (non-irritating, non-comedogenic, OTC and medical applications)
• Reliability and reproducibility (odorless, colorless, consistent quality, chemically stable)
• Exceptional sensory performance (proven consumer soft touch experience and acceptance)
• Enhanced delivery of actives (stabilizing matrix improves efficacy)
• Multifunctional value-added benefits (a sensorial modifier with optical light diffusing properties)
• Versatile delivery substrate options to meet various formulation requirements
See below for our new GRANSIL
ALKANE-BASED ELASTOMER SERIES!
SILICONE EDUCATION AND FACTS:
• Silicones are synthetic molecules containing silicon atoms. Silicon and oxygen are the two most abundant elements (by
weight) found on the earth’s crust. In nature silicon exists as silica, silicone dioxides and silicates in the form of sand, clays,
and other minerals.
• Silicones are polymers which include synthetic compounds made up of repeating units of siloxane - a chain of alternating
silicon atoms and oxygen atoms, frequently combined with carbon or hydrogen or both.
• There are many types of silicone-based ingredients and not all should be classified the same way. Silicone reactive
intermediates are very different from silicone elastomer polymers and silicone cyclic and linear fluids.

ABOUT POLYSILICONE-11® CHEMISTRY:

• Polysilicone-11® is a large molecular weight inert crosslinking polymer prepared from silicone intermediates.
• Polysilicone-11® has no negative health or safety concerns. This elastomer offers maximum safety by remaining on the skins’
surface as a sensorial and visual modifier delivery substrate to enhance the performance of cosmetic formulations.
• Polysilicone-11® swells in the presents of volatile and non-volatile silicones, alkanes and other solvents to form a gelatinous
suspension of silky soft particles which are dispersible in creams, lotions, gels and makeup formulations.

KEY POINTS
• Silicones have a long and safe history of
use in cosmetics, which underscores their
relevance to the clean beauty movement.

• Yet, the industry is at odds with negative

perceptions of silicones. This is due, in
part, to misleading claims. The present
article reinforces the redeeming qualities of
these materials and highlights the need for
public-facing transparency, education and
advocacy to bridge the gap with consumers.

Safe and
Sustainable How Silicones Match the Clean Beauty Mindset
Charles Granatell and John Gormley
Grant Industries, Elmwood Park, NJ, USA
Editor’s note: Some may wonder why silicones are in a book about
clean beauty. Considering the science, however, it seems that one would
be remiss to omit these ingredients, which have a long history of safe use,
are sustainable in nature and offer unmatched esthetics to formulations.
2019 Clean Beauty Ebook www.grantinc.com Cosmetics & Toiletries®
A
ccording to a report from
The Benchmarking Com-
pany, 68% of consumers
buy natural and organic
products, and of those
surveyed, 95% said they
buy more natural products than they did 10 years
ago.1 Why? Because, as is well-known, they are often
considered by the consumer to be safer for both the
user and the environment—though clearly, this may
not always be the case.
Indeed, studies suggest atopic dermatitis has
been on the rise since the 1960s,2 and while this may
be due in part to the rise in environmental pollut-
ants, the fact that consumers are using more natural
products suggests there could be more to this story.
Naturally derived ingredients such as essential
oils are chemically complex, and their constituents
can vary from crop to crop, season to season, etc.
Therefore, if their purity is not carefully controlled,
or even in cases where it is, they can pose a risk
for allergenicity, especially to those consumers
with sensitivities.
Even jojoba oil, for example, which is ubiquitous
in sensitive care products, has been implicated in
contact dermatitis and sensitization.3 According to
a report published in the Journal of the American
Academy of Dermatology, “With the increase of
[jojoba oil] usage, it is well to be aware of its pres-
ence as a potential sensitizer. We have encountered
contact dermatitis in individuals who used it on their
scalps, either as a shampoo or hair conditioner, as
well as in others who applied it to glabrous skin,
either in creams or as pure oil.”
| 21
 Safe and Sustainable
One requirement for clean beauty remains
consistent: ingredient safety, be it for the
user or the environment.
Here, the researchers found that of six
individuals suspected to be sensitive to jojoba
oil, five developed erythema or erythema and
vesicles on their forearms within 24 hr or 48 hr
after patch-testing with it. Notably, comparative
patches using pure olive oil, pure mineral oil or
muslin cloth alone were negative. As a control,
28 patients with no known sensitivities were
patch-tested using muslin soaked in pure jojoba
oil, and no reactions were elicited after 72 hr.
Furthermore, while consumer demand rises
for natural products, at the same time, 95% of
consumers surveyed cite product efficacy as the
most important factor when choosing a prod-
uct. While strides have been made to develop
naturally derived materials with improved
functionality, the gold standard especially for
esthetics is still silicones.
As a result, the cosmetic industry has
evolved to support these market priorities for
safety and performance, as well as responsible
sourcing. “You want a product to be both
efficacious and safe,” said Margarita Arriagada,
former chief merchant of Sephora. “But just
because something is natural, doesn’t neces-
sarily mean it’s good for you. The promised
land is safe and effective. …and the entire
beauty industry needs to be transparent,” says
Arriagada, “That is clear.”
Clean is a term popping up more and more.
It generally describes products that are free-
from certain ingredients but definitely does not
mean all natural or organic.

Regarding the latter point, the European
Union took steps to do exactly that—i.e., pro-
vide transparency—when it announced it would
require brands to list commonly identified
allergens on ingredient listings.4 Subsequently,
multinationals such as P&G have followed suit.5
Clean Beauty Defined
Just as Whole Foods set the stage for organic
product claims,6 Sephora has defined clean
beauty7 in what could become the future direc-
tion for the cosmetics industry. According to the
company’s website, “Clean is simple: the beauty
you want, minus the ingredients you might
not.” It adds that, to get it right, the company
“scoured the scene, met with brand founders
and experts, and asked [the consumer] exactly
what [they’re] looking for in clean beauty.”
Sephora notes, “When you spot our Clean
seal, you can be sure we’ve checked that this
brand’s products don’t include the ingredients
you’d most like to do without.” The current list
includes the sulfates SLS and SLES, parabens,
formaldehydes, formaldehyde-releasing agents,
phthalates, mineral oil, retinyl palmitate,
oxybenzone, coal tar, hydroquinone, triclosan
and triclocarban; though without additional
explanation beyond consumers feedback.
Interestingly, Sephora’s definition is more about
what clean beauty is not than what it is. The
company notes it will continue to update this
ingredient list as the clean movement grows.
Silicone Chemistry
While consumers and leading retailers are
still hammering out the definition, one require-
ment for clean beauty remains consistent:
ingredient safety, be it for the user or the envi-
ronment. And as most formulators are aware,
silicones are inert, non-reactive ingredients
derived from quartz; i.e., sand. These colorless,
odorless and non-ionic materials exhibit no
oxidation issues and often are used to provide
unique sensorial attributes in formulas without
causing irritation.8 In fact, silicones are some
of the most innocuous ingredients known,
as evidenced by nearly 70 years of research
and consumer use history.9 Due to their
low incidence of allergies, hospitals rely on
silicone-based dressings for wound care. And
in the consumer market, over-the-counter skin
protectants and silicone scar sheets are sold for
FDA-approved scar prevention.
Though silicones began as basic linear
polymer systems of polydimethylsilocane (INCI:
dimethicone), or more volatile, shorter cyclic
silicones such as cyclopentasiloxane, technolo-
gies have evolved to develop various forms from
these main backbones. Derivatives that were
made from phenyl substituted silicones, such
as phenyl trimethicone, also gave the industry
more options for less volatile applications,
compared with most linear systems.10
In the past, the molecular weight would
dictate a silicone’s viscosity and utility within
2019 Clean Beauty Ebook www.grantinc.com Cosmetics & Toiletries®
formulations but today’s technologies can
provide differentiated benefits with a range
of volatilities and physical characteristics.
Specifically, elastomer chemistry created by
cross-linking linear polymers has been a sig-
nificant development in the cosmetics industry.
Advances in silicone emulsifier chemistries
also have expanded the capabilities of silicone
elastomers in formulations and extended
their use.11, 12
Silicones in Formulation
The introduction of silicone elastomers
to the cosmetics industry offered unique
replacements and modification properties for
traditional high oil and fatty alcohol systems,
which dominated formulations for most of
the 20th century. This allowed formulations
to deliver exceptional aesthetics while provid-
ing additional benefits such as soft focus and
line-filling, without the oiliness attributed to
traditional systems.
When linear polymers are chemically
altered into a cross-linked matrix, the resulting

claims.
elastomer becomes insoluble in most solvents.
As such, silicone elastomers can swell in a
solvent vehicle with varying expandability that
is proportionate to the number of cross-links
present in the elastomer. In many cases, these
elastomers create a mattifying effect upon
application, providing a smooth, soft and even
skin appearance. Elastomer powders also
provide distinctive aesthetic properties that can
range from smooth and silky, to powdery with a
dry yet soft finish.
Another attribute provided by silicone elas-
tomers is sebum absorption13 without the risk
of over-drying and irritating the skin, compared
with alcohol and other lipid-stripping solvents.
This makes silicone elastomers a popular choice
for anti-acne products. In relation, silicone
elastomer materials have a low irritancy profile
and provide a safe barrier on the skin. This low
irritancy is true for most silicones and as such,
as noted, they are used in the medical field
thanks to their safety profile.14
Elastomers can also entrap actives or
fragrances in their matrix, enabling the
elastomers to act as delivery vehicles within
formulas. The release of an active or substance
from the matrix can be stimulated by shear or
by diffusion when applied on the skin. Besides
personal care applications, it is common to
see silicone elastomers embedded into skin
treatment patches and other devices for this
delivery function.
Depending on the chemistry and process
to make them, silicone elastomers are referred
to as silicone crosspolymers, dimethicone
24 | www.CosmeticsandToiletries.com www.grantinc.com 2019 Clean Beauty Ebook
crosspolymers, dimethicone/vinyl dimethi-
cone crosspolymers or polysilicone modified
silicone.12 Commercially available silicone
elastomers are offered in both gel and powder
forms. They can be designed as hard or soft,
for use in product types ranging from compact
makeup to serums.
Additional Claims
Since silicones are derived from quartz,
they are inherently sustainable. They are also
non-animal-derived, making them vegan and
cruelty-free by default. They omit palm-derived
materials as well, alleviating concerns over
unsustainable or unethical sourcing practices.
These factors support additional marketing
claims that align with the clean beauty con-
sumer’s mindset.
Addressing Objections
In the interest of transparency, while the
benefits and safety of silicones have been reiter-
ated above, it is important to consider why
silicones were denounced in the first place. Two
main claims have misled the public about sili-
cones: buildup on hair and in the environment.
Hair concerns: In online forums, com-
plaints had emerged around silicones weighing
down long hair. This issue was traced to the
overuse of two-in-one-type shampoos that
contain high molecular weight silicone gums in
combination with cationic polymers to enhance
the deposition of these gums.
Today, two-in-one shampoos are not as
popular as they used to be, at least for women
with long hair, since the market has shifted dra-
matically, since then. However, the silicone-free
demand remains, for now, due to this percep-
tion of silicones building up on hair.
Environmental concerns: The environ-
mental impact of silicones also is widely
misunderstood. While it is true that cyclomethi-
cones are restricted to limited amounts—and in
rinse-off applications only in the United King-
dom due to concerns over persistence—most
formulators know the same does not pertain to
all silicones; unfortunately, consumers do not.
The current recommendation is to restrict
octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (D4) and deca-
methylcyclopentasiloxane (D5) to less than
0.1% across all rinse-off products. Restrictions
for leave-on applications are also being consid-
ered although they treat D4, D5 and D6 as the
same materials. Furthermore, safety reviews
have already concluded that D5 (with less than
1.0% D4 content) and D6 are safe for leave-on
cosmetics; D4 is no longer formulated into
leave-on cosmetics except as an unavoidable
by-product. As such, any proposed leave-on
restrictions concerning cyclomethicones D5 and
D6 are not warranted. In most applications, this
provides a greater than 100-fold safety margin;
the threshold used in all data-driven toxicology
for leave-on cosmetics.
What’s more, even after decades of using
them at unrestricted levels, only minuscule
amounts of silicones, if any, have been detected
in environment samples.15 In fact, cyclomethi-
cones evaporate rapidly and degrade in air
under the influence of sunlight. The small
amounts that may enter soil degrade, catalyzed
by clays present in the soil. In water, they parti-
tion out, again to be degraded in soil or in air.16
Ultimately, silicones return to their basic silica
(sand), carbon dioxide and water components.
Freedom from
Free-from Claims
It is important to note that fewer products
will soon be stamped with free-from silicones
2019 Clean Beauty Ebook www.grantinc.com Cosmetics & Toiletries®
or most other ingredient statements. This is
thanks to the EU’s cosmetic regulation, which
monitors such claims as outlined in the CTPA’s
“Confidence in Cosmetic Claims” document.17
This explains that unless an ingredient has
proven negative health effects, it will be
impermissible to claim free-from on the label in
upcoming months.18
Even parabens are excluded because they
have extensively been reviewed and found to be
safe when formulated within the recommended
safety levels. Likewise, since silicones are safe
as reviewed—including D5, with recommended
0.1% D4 inclusion—therefore, it will no longer
be possible to market products as silicone-free
in the EU.
Conclusions
Let’s face it, reliable information on the
Internet is limited, which is why retailers are
compelled to take on the social responsibility
of educating consumers and being transparent
about the products they carry. Luckily, Sephora
has stepped back to consider what it means to
stamp a product as “Clean.”
The long-reigning natural and green move-
ment must shift to prioritize safety and efficacy,

 Safe and Sustainable
not just all-natural claims; in other words, as
an industry, we should not continually respond
to what customers want if it does not support
their best interests.
In reality, silicone-based raw materials
have already been a crucial contributor in the
natural, clean and ethical products category.
A search19 in Mintel’s Global New Products
Database, between 1998 and June 2018, reveals
that silicone elastomers were included on the
labels of some 12,856 skin care and makeup
products designated as natural. Further find-
ings demonstrate significant growth between
2012 and 2017 of products containing silicone
elastomers making claims around “ethical”
and “environmental” marketing positions.
These findings make a lot of sense given the
mineral origin, safety and reliability of silicone
materials.
Consumers choose products with natural
and clean claims because they are trying to
align their purchases with personal ideologies.
Individuals who care about animals support
vegan products, while others value sustainable
packaging over anything else.
“The consumer is taking matters into their
own hands. They’re coming from a position
of strength,” reflects Arriagada. “It’s about
lifestyle. It’s what we’re living.” Enter: the
clean beauty movement. This is one we can get
behind.

 ELASTOMER TIPS AND
FORMULATION GUIDE

• Enhanced compatibility with organic materials such as natural oils and butters, esters and sunscreens, while
maintaining the unique sensory characteristics and texture imparted by silicones
• Combination of Polysilicone-11 network with naturally-based fluids will serve as the perfect delivery system for
natural actives into the skin while leaving a light dry, smooth and powdery finish
• Addition in formula:
– Add to oil phase or silicone phase of any type of emulsion, including o/w, w/o, Si/w, w/Si and
anhydrous systems; post addition is also possible, if viscosity >50,000cPs
– Disperse SiAPPTM elastomer with homogenizer or propeller type blade
– Silicone elastomer is not heat sensitive. If heat is applied refer back to SiAppTM elastomer flash point to
determine maximum temperature allowed (the use of a closed vessel will prevent volatilization):
• GRANSIL GVL-LITE: 65° C
• GRANSIL GVL-912: 75° C
• GRANSIL OGH: 81° C
• GRANSIL SUG: 110° C
• Odor: silicones are odorless; however, combined with naturally-derived fluids, a stronger characteristic wax-type
odor may occur. Use of high temperature may enhance this effect. To off-set it, use a citrus type fragrance or an
essential oil (not limited to) or post-add raw material, once batch is a room temperature.
• Finish product packaging: organic portion in SiAPPTM elastomer may migrate to surface of the plastic and behave
as a plasticizer altering the shape of the packaging as well as finish product performance; to avoid this phenom-
ena it is recommended to use co-extruded, thick wall, polyester or polyethylene terapthalate type plastics or glass
packaging when applicable
• Applications across the board:
– Skin and sun care (including anhydrous clear systems), color cosmetics and hair care

GRANSURF PG-14: Polyglyceryl-6 Polyricinoleate (and) Polyglyceryl-10 Dioleate

• HLB: 9 – 9.5
• Compatible with naturally-derived and synthetic ingredients; these include low and high polarity esters,
volatile and non-volatile hydrocarbons and silicone fluids
• Enhanced wetting properties for pigments with vegetable-derived or silicone coatings
• Applications: w/o or w/Si serums, creams, sunscreens, foundations
– Use level 4-10%
– Add to oil phase for optimal performance
– Water content up to 80% (formula dependent)
– Can be used as w/o main emulsifier or co-emulsifier
– Low to high viscosity emulsions

DID YOU KNOW?
MAJOR MISCONCEPTIONS REVERSED:

• In the environment silicones degrade rapidly in sunlight and soil. In

water, they partition out, again to be degraded in soil or in air. Ulti-
mately, they return to silica (sand), carbon dioxide and water.

• Are silicones sustainable? Absolutely. Silicones are derived from

quartz (sand) the second most abundant mineral on earth.

• Do silicones cause acne, allergies, or clog pores? No actually the

complete opposite. Silicones are inert, non-reactive materials that are
extremely safe for topical use. They have proven to be non-comedo-
genic and are even used for irritation relief from dermatoses such as
atopic dermatitis. Dimethicone specifically is FDA-approved as a skin
protectant to help prevent skin sensitization to allergens.

• Natural is implicitly equated with “safety”, and yet ironically essential

oils are a quintessential example of natural ingredients laden with
allergens. Even jojoba oil, ubiquitous in “sensitive” products, is a
proven source of contact dermatitis and sensitization. Bottom line:
nothing safer on the skin than silicones.
