Polyester-7

Polyester-7 is a synthetic polymer primarily used in cosmetics as a film-forming agent. It creates a flexible, often water-resistant film on the skin or hair, which can help to extend the wear of products and provide a smooth feel. This ingredient is commonly found in sunscreens and makeup for its ability to improve product longevity and texture.
