I want to know if when its dry will it irritate the skin? I am looking for a cheap silicone to put on the inside of some cloth headbands i made.

I wouldn't use this for something that was going to be worn against the skin: the chemicals in this product aren't rated/tested for that kind of use. Maybe try some products from your local fabric store for your purposes.

The consistency of the dried silicone is quite pliable so should not be bothersome; not sure of possible chemical irritation so check online before using. Might be better product at materials retailer. Good luck.

Kirsten, Maybe you could use this "food grade" silicone. AST-RTV 27110 Food Grade White 100% Silicone Adhesive/Sealant/Instant Gasket, 10.3 oz. Cartridge

Hi Kirsten, I believe this Silicone Adhesive Sealant is meant to be used on Automotive applications. I have used it to glue up an old tennis shoe, but the cured sealant does not touch my skin. On the package it says the sealant is an eye and skin irritate while wet, but no information if it remains so after the product has cured. It does contain Polydimethylsioxane, Methyltriacetoxysilane, Ethyltriacetoxysilane, and Petroleum Distillates. The company that makes it, Permatex, might be able to supply you with a MSDS, (material safety data sheets), that could supply you with the information you need on this product.

I wear a moisturizer with it because I have very dry skin. It does have a good moisterizing feel to it though not like other sunscreens.

I have used it and it works fine. Just be sure that it doesn't get to hot in Micro way. I let it go to long and it gets hot. So I only did it a few seconds and it felt goood on my dry eyes.

I'm the only one using it. If I leave it on too long (through several showers) my skin gets dry underneath, but that's all.

It is very thin, similar to consistency of water. It dries very fast. Once is dries you can feel your skin tighten. It works! Hope this helps.

I actually have really dry skin but I don't notice any more dryness with it. I usually put lotion on right after while it's still a little damp. My skin doesn't dry up like it used to when I used Ocean Breeze.

I will ask my son how it feels I bought it to send to him - he's in the Army. I'll respond again when tells me. If you have any other questions let me know. I'll ask him general ones though like how does it feel, is it greasy or dry and does it get sticky or runny etc. He just needs it for his ears where he is the most allergic. Thank you

Hi Deborah, This stuff is great at giving you a nice tan. I like it better than any other I have tried.......but recently I put it on under a black and white maxi dress.... I sweated and it ruined it! I am very careful now about what I wear it with.

The silicone component should always generate a filmy, "slippery" texture feel so long as there is NOT residue build-up (if it stops feeling slippery then it ceases to fulfill its purpose). Some people describe it as a tacky feeling. If you are worried about residual grease, a typical dish detergent should eliminate all residues when washing in hot water. Many people have said that wiping with a dry towel once the Silpat sheet is "dry" also helps eliminate any additional oils. Personally, I store mine between sheets of parchment or butcher paper, and I always wipe them down with a damp cloth before each use.

Its good for any types of skins but it can be a little drying on the skin. Personally I wouldn't use it if my akin was already dry. I hope I answered your question

i honestly believe it would not as i had a hard time with it and mine is about 40 ~ it also broke me out in a rash ~~~ i threw it in the trash as i don't want to break out again ~ make sure you put something cotton under it against your skin so it doesn't break you out if you decide to try one ~

It hasn't for me, so far, and I have been using it for over a year. Just wait the 5 minutes to allow for drying time and you're safe!

can't hurt. After washing, I use CRC Food Grade Silicone on my meat tenderizer and my grain mill which are both cast iron. It dries quickly and leaves no noticeable residue. It's safer than regular silicone.

Interesting question....I've read several reviews about moisture with this product. I can't explain it, but there is moisture, just not enough to require a seal or anything else. Perhaps it's the material that is used inside....but when I heat it in the microwave it feels slightly moist; just not a lot. But it works!!! Geez, anything was better for us besides that wet washcloth. :-)

Hi Wendy, I go to the gym at least twice a week here in Maryland and use the Belkin Armband all the time. There is a slight bit of moisture on my nano when I'm done, but it has not harmed the nano to this point. However, the conditions you are running in, I would probably use a plastic 'baggie' over top of the armband as I personally do not believe it would keep the nano dry over time. Again...just my obervations and opinion. Hope you are doing well. chuck

This will definitely not dry on your head like classic gel and make your hair crunch when you touch it. I don't know that I'd call it wet, however you can continue to adjust it throughout the day, so I think it should achieve what you are looking for.
