Formulation Deep Dive

The Oil by Crown Affair is formulated as a high-performance anhydrous hair treatment designed for lightweight lipid replenishment and surface occlusion. The carrier system utilizes a strategic blend of Dimethicone and Isodecyl Neopentanoate, a branched-chain ester, to ensure rapid absorption and a silky, non-greasy skin-feel. Active performance is driven by a synergistic combination of Camellia Japonica (Tsubaki) Seed Oil and Limnanthes Alba (Meadowfoam) Seed Oil, which work together to reinforce the hair's natural lipid barrier and improve oxidative stability. This anhydrous formulation is inherently stable and utilizes the volatility of its primary silicone and ester base to deliver concentrated botanical actives without the need for a traditional aqueous preservative system.
