I started using L'anza hair repair leave-in protector and I was doing a research on its very nice ingredients. The only cone this product has is dimethicone peg-8 meadowfoamate. I did a search here and I already knew this is water soluble. Then I gloogled it and I found some very interesting stuff.

First link is a study on dimethicone peg-8 meadowfoamate and dimethiconol meadowfoamate, also known as Fancorsil LIMs.
