POLYESTER-10
Safety grade: A
Polyester-10 is a synthetic plastic-like polymer that forms a thin, flexible coating on the skin or hair. It's created in laboratories by chemically linking smaller molecules together to create a larger, film-forming substance.
This ingredient creates a protective, breathable layer on the skin or hair surface that helps lock in moisture, improves product durability, and gives a smooth, polished finish.
