Description
Hydrogenated polydecene is a chemical substance belonging to the class of petroleum-based polymers and used in cosmetics for several reasons: 1. Moisturizing: it creates a barrier film on the skin surface, helping to retain moisture and protect the skin from external negative factors such as wind or dry air. 2. Softening: it has the ability to soften the skin, reduce its roughness and make it smoother to the touch. 3. Smoothing: it can improve the appearance of the skin by smoothing out fine wrinkles and unevenness. It can temporarily fill in micro pores of the skin, creating a visual effect of a smoother surface. 4. Texture: it can give products a smooth and creamy consistency, making them easier to spread on the skin.
