Carbomer alternative / Film-forming polymer

ETHYLENE/​ACRYLIC ACID COPOLYMER

About this ingredient

Ethylene/Acrylic Acid Copolymer is a synthetic polymer that functions as a film-forming agent and rheology modifier in cosmetic formulations. It creates a protective, flexible film on the skin surface, improves product texture and spreadability, enhances water resistance in sunscreen products, and stabilizes emulsions and suspensions. This ingredient is commonly used in waterproof and long-wear cosmetic formulations.
