Polyacrylate-13
A synthetic acrylic polymer used to thicken water-based formulas and stabilize emulsions.
What it does
Polyacrylate-13 is a synthetic acrylate polymer, usually supplied with a dispersing aid so it thickens quickly in water across a range of pH. It builds a smooth gel, suspends particles, and helps keep oil and water mixed. It is a texture-and-stability ingredient rather than a skin active.
