Capryloyl Glycerin/Sebacic Acid Copolymer

Capryloyl Glycerin/Sebacic Acid Copolymer is a plant-derived polymer that functions as a film-former and emollient in cosmetic products. It helps to create a flexible, non-tacky film on the skin or hair, which can improve product longevity and texture. This ingredient also contributes to a smooth feel and can help to reduce water loss from the skin.
