INCI Acrylamidopropyltrimonium Chloride/Acrylates Copolymer

Conditioning / Film-Forming Polymer Formula Support

What it is & what it does

This is a cationic film-forming polymer used to improve conditioning, adhesion and the way a formula sits on skin, hair or nails.
It forms a thin flexible film that can reduce rough feel, improve combability or coating, and help the product stay evenly distributed. Its benefit is mainly surface conditioning and performance rather than a biological treatment effect.

Usage & cautions
