Science

Mechanism of Action

This copolymer operates as finely engineered thermoplastic microspheres, frequently hollow and gas-filled (likely with isobutane). These microscopic spheres integrate into formulations, primarily in aqueous gels, where they function as lightweight textural modifiers. Their physical presence imparts a notable improvement in skin feel, rendering formulas more comfortable and perceptibly smoother upon application.
