BELSIL® DM 1 Plus S is a colorless and clear fluid with low viscosity and high volatility. It is a non-polar substance that is insoluble in water but can easily mix with mineral oils, lower alcohols, esters, and other solvents commonly used in cosmetics. Thanks to its low heat of vaporization, when applied to the skin, BELSIL® DM 1 Plus S evaporates without causing a cooling or stinging effect.
