Description
Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA) is a polymer used in cosmetic products to create various textures, such as for creating matte effects in powder or for filling in wrinkles in creams or foundations for makeup. One of the main properties of PMMA is that it can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles on the skin, as well as help smooth out the texture of the skin. PMMA is able to expand when applied to the skin, allowing it to fill in any gaps created by wrinkles or other irregularities on the skin surface. In addition, PMMA can be added to cosmetic products to create various textures, such as matte or shimmery effects in powder or to create a smoother texture in creams or foundations for makeup.
