  • Using C13-15 Alkane as a Replacement for D5 to Achieve Similar Skin Feel?

    Posted by spadirect on November 16, 2018 at 9:39 pm

    What is your impression of using C13-15 Alkane (brand name Neossance™ Hemisqualane by Aprinnova) as a replacement for cyclopentasiloxane (D5) in order to achieve a similar skin feel in skin care products?

    What are your favorite non-silicone based alternatives to D5 in order to achieve a similar skin feel?

    Thanks!

    Does it feel much better than squalane?
