CDF Flake Resin Liquid is a ready-to-use MQ silicone resin solution designed to deliver durable, flexible films with excellent adhesion and wear resistance. As the volatile silicone carrier evaporates after application, a smooth, continuous resin film remains, enhancing transfer resistance, gloss, and overall product longevity.

Common Applications

• Long-wear foundations, primers, and complexion products
• Transfer-resistant lipsticks, liquid lips, and glosses
• Waterproof mascaras and eyeliners
• BB and CC creams
• Hair serums, shine sprays, and frizz-control products
• Sunscreens and body glow formulations

Why Use CDF Flake Resin Liquid?

Trimethylsiloxysilicate is one of the most effective silicone film formers used in modern color cosmetics and long-wear formulations. Delivered here in a volatile silicone carrier, this liquid resin spreads easily during application and forms a thin, flexible, water-resistant film as the carrier evaporates.

Key Benefits

• Creates strong yet flexible, breathable films
• Significantly improves adhesion and transfer resistance
• Enhances gloss, clarity, and pigment payoff
• Provides a lightweight, non-tacky sensory finish
• Improves durability and wear time in color cosmetics
• Acts as a co-solvent for pigments and silicone-compatible actives

Usage Guidelines

• Typical use level: 1–30%, depending on desired film strength
• Add to the silicone or oil phase prior to emulsification
• Compatible with volatile silicones, dimethicone, esters, and isododecane
• Recommended processing temperature: approximately 40–60 °C

Formulation Notes

• Blend with isododecane or dimethicone for lighter, faster-drying films
• Combine with polymethylsilsesquioxane or boron nitride for enhanced slip and soft-focus effects
• Excellent for transfer-proof lip products and long-wear eye makeup
• Compatible with pigments, fillers, and many UV filters
