The present invention relates to a series of crosslinked silicone polymers that by virtue of the nature of the crosslinker, have unique solubility and properties. These include improved tolerance for oily materials and water soluble materials. These polymers find use in personal care applications like pigmented products. In the personal care arena, solid products that do not experience syneresis are important. Syneresis is a condition that exists in a solid product that causes a liquid that is incompatible to ooze out, which is cosmetically unacceptable.
