Ammonium Polyacryldimethyltauramide is a synthetic polymer that functions primarily as a thickener and stabilizer in cosmetic formulations. It helps to create desirable textures, from light gels to richer creams, and prevents ingredients from separating. This ingredient also contributes to the overall feel and spreadability of a product.
