Dimethicone copolyol shea butterate is used in cosmetic formulations. The substance is an ester of a dimethylsiloxane-glycol copolymer (silicone derivative) and the fatty acids derived from shea butter.

Dimethicone copolyol shea butterate acts as an emollient (makes the skin smooth and supple) and also has a skin caring effect.
