UNI-Sil 609 is a high-purity silica powder designed to tune feel and finish in modern formulas. With strong oil absorption and easy dispersion, it helps formulators build lighter, cleaner sensory profiles—reducing greasy afterfeel, improving slip, and supporting a more matte, soft-focus appearance in both skincare and color cosmetics. It’s a straightforward way to manage shine and texture without adding complexity to the system, while remaining stable as an inert mineral powder.
