Description

Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer is a polymer compound created by stitching together methyl methacrylate monomers. In cosmetic products, it is used as a texturizer, absorbent, and component that provides a soft matte effect. Thanks to its porous structure, this substance is able to absorb skin oils, reducing shine and improving the appearance of the skin. Additionally, Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer helps to scatter light, visually smoothing wrinkles and imperfections - the soft focus effect. Because of this, it is often used in primers, powders, mattifying creams, sunscreens, and even foundation creams.
