How to use
For cosmetic formulation, not direct use on skin. Determine the appropriate amount for your specific recipe and consult the manufacturer’s technical guidance. The store’s general starting guidance is approximately 1% for many applications, with 0.5–2% listed for gelling. Validate stability, preservation and compatibility in the finished formula.
Suitability & care
A raw cosmetic ingredient for formulation. Keep dry, reseal after use and follow batch storage and use-by details on the package. A preservative-free raw ingredient does not make a water-based finished creation safe without an appropriate preservation system.

“Siligel lives up to the hype!” - Dave G., Formulator
I use Siligel in many of my skincare formulations. It is a superior ingredient for slip, glide, skin-feel, and creating gels. I have not found anything else like it for premium skincare creation. It has become increasingly difficult to source this ingredient in small amounts. I purchased in bulk, and I am able to offer this amazing product to formulators and DIY enthusiasts who need small amounts.

Siligel™ is a natural gelling agent that leaves an amazing silicone-like skin feel. Siligel™ is easy to use (cold process, no pre-dispersion) and has an exceptional electrolyte tolerance (up to 20% NaCl), making it the ideal partner for formulations containing stressful ingredients. The versatility of Siligel™ leads to several applications either as a gelling agent, stabilizer, co-emulsifier, suspending agent, skin feel enhancer as a substitute of silicones and it even has moisturizing properties. Its natural origin with a sustainable green manufacturing process answers today’s demand for eco-friendly ingredients.
Siligel is preservative-free and eco-friendly. It provides an amazing silicone-like skin feel and a high resistance to electrolytes, due to its patented synergistic combination of phospholipids and polysaccharides. It is the natural solution to create robust formulations with no compromise between efficiency and aesthetics. It decreases the TEWL and high resistance to electrolytes. Siligel is suggested for use in cosmetics and personal care products.
USAGE instructions: for most applications, 1% Siligel is appropriate, check your individual recipe. To mix Siligel in the water phase, first mix with glycerin (4 to 5 grams per 1 gram Siligel works well to make a paste). Then add paste to water or add some water to paste, mix, and then add to water phase.
