Emollient
Fills in the tiny cracks between skin cells to make everything feel smooth and soft. The "silky finish" ingredient.
Locks In Moisture
Traditional Use
A modern ingredient combining silicone with mohwa (mahua) butter, traditionally used in Indian skincare and Ayurveda for its emollient properties. The silicone-enhanced version was developed for improved cosmetic performance.
