Description
Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) is a water-soluble substance used in cosmetics as a thickener, stabilizer, and moisturizer. HPMC can change the consistency of a cosmetic product, providing it with the necessary viscosity and texture. The main functions of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose in cosmetics: 1. Thickening: HPMC can provide the necessary consistency of a cosmetic product, increasing its viscosity. 2. Stabilization: HPMC can provide stability to a cosmetic product, reducing its stickiness and improving the uniformity of its components. 3. Moisturizing: HPMC can retain moisture on the skin surface, improving skin hydration.
