Dimethicone bisamino hydroxypropyl copolyol is used in cosmetic formulations. The substance acts as a hair conditioning agent (makes the hair easy to comb, smooth, soft and shiny and gives it volume) and emollient (nourishes the skin).

The use of dimethicone derivatives in cosmetic formulations is not recommended due to their poor degradability.
