Functions
Film Forming
Creates a physical seal on skin to lock moisture in and keep irritants out. The "slugging" ingredient — barrier protection.
Emulsifying
Forces oil and water to stay mixed instead of separating into layers. The unsung hero holding your lotion together.
Creates Protective Barrier
Traditional Use
A specialized synthetic polymer combining acrylic polymers with perfluorinated compounds. Developed for cosmetics to provide enhanced water and oil resistance without traditional use.
