Hexadecene Copolymer
An oil-soluble synthetic polymer used to thicken the oil phase and adjust a formula's feel.
What it does
Hexadecene Copolymer is a synthetic polymer that dissolves in oils. It thickens the oil phase and gives a smooth, non-greasy slip, so it is used as an oil-phase texture agent. It is a texture ingredient rather than a skin active.
