Functions
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Film Forming
Creates a physical seal on skin to lock moisture in and keep irritants out. The "slugging" ingredient — barrier protection.
Emollient
Fills in the tiny cracks between skin cells to make everything feel smooth and soft. The "silky finish" ingredient.
Nail Conditioning
Strengthens nails
Traditional Use
A complex synthetic polymer developed in the 20th century for cosmetic use. Created to improve texture, spreadability, and film-forming properties in skincare and makeup products.
