Polyethylene Terephthalate

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is a synthetic polymer commonly known for its use in plastic bottles. In cosmetics, it can function as a film former, creating a thin layer on the skin or hair, or as a mild abrasive in exfoliating products. It is also the material used for glitter particles in makeup.
