Science
Mechanism of Action
As a condensation polymer, this ingredient forms a protective, conditioning film upon skin application. The sesame oil component contributes emollient and antioxidant benefits, while triricinolein further conditions the skin and aids in viscosity control. Succinic acid is structurally integrated, potentially influencing the polymer's film-forming capabilities and offering mild pH modification, resulting in enhanced skin smoothness and barrier support.

Safety Profile
While individual components such as Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil and Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil/Ricinoleates have been deemed safe by the CIR Expert Panel (Sesame Seed Oil up to 73%), the specific copolymer 'SESAME OIL/SUCCINIC ACID/TRIRICINOLEIN COPOLYMER' has not undergone a direct safety assessment by CIR, SCCS, or FDA as a distinct ingredient.
