Cellulose gum, also known as carboxymethylcellulose, is a plant-derived polymer used as a thickener, binder, and film-former in cosmetic products. It helps to stabilize emulsions, prevent ingredient separation, and improve the texture and spreadability of formulations. It is generally considered safe and non-irritating.
