POLYACRYLATE-40
Safety grade: A
Polyacrylate-40 is a synthetic polymer, essentially a chain of molecules linked together, that forms a flexible, invisible layer on the skin or product surface. It's similar to how a thin plastic coating works.
This ingredient creates a lightweight, breathable film on the skin that helps products last longer, improves their texture, and can provide a smooth, polished finish to cosmetics like foundations and powders.
