About this ingredient

A synthetic polymer copolymer composed of ethylene and propylene units. It functions as a film-forming and texture-modifying agent in cosmetic formulations, providing smoothness, slip, and a silky feel to products such as powders, foundations, and sunscreens. It helps improve product spreadability and creates a lightweight, non-greasy sensory profile.
