Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer

Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer is a polymer used to thicken, suspend, or film-form in cosmetics.

What it does

Builds viscosity, suspends pigments/filters, or forms a light film that changes spread and after-feel.

The evidence

Functional ingredient (not graded for skin benefits): Rheology modifier or film-former; safety assessments typically focus on residual monomers and use level, not clinical actives. Credible chemical identity and cosmetic-use context come from CIR/SCCS/manufacturer INCI definitions and databases such as SpecialChem/PubChem[1].

How to use it

Expect this as a supporting INCI line item unless labelled as a featured active.
