Acrylates Copolymer Powder (100 g / 3.38 oz) - Cosmetic Grade Thickener & Film-Forming Agent for Gels Creams Hair & Skin Formulations

This is probably a great item. I was eager to test it out in my lotion and soap making. However, it never arrived for me to compare to my other brands or test in my soaps. Good value if it arrives.

This acrylate copolymer is fantastic for adding viscosity and stability to skincare and hair care products. It creates a smooth, professional texture in creams and lotions without making them feel heavy or sticky.Myoc is one of my top brands to purchase from for my company.

Playing around with using this in some cosmetics and a conditioner, it works as expected. Still working out a few issues with a few things, but this isn't the issue, and there's plenty of product for me to test with.

MYOC Acrylate Copolymer blended evenly into my DIY cosmetics without any clumping. It gave my lotions a nice smooth consistency and was easy to work with. I had been trying to get more body to some relatively thin, almost watery formulas and this worked perfectly.

This is a nice, fine, powder with no odor. It only takes a tiny bit so this bag is perfect size for homemade products. I am pleased with it so far.This review is for the product listed as, “MYOC Acrylate Copolymer, Acrylate Copolymer Thickener, Acrylate Copolymer for Cosmetic, Acrylate Copolymer for Skin & Hair Care Products - 3.38 Ounce."

Acrylate Copolymer adds water resistance and protection to skin products in addition to acting as a thickener. This is very difficult to get to mix but what I have found works is after the hot phase has been made, carefully sprinkle or sift this in while having vigorous mixing going. This does not want to mix into water so if you have both an oil and water hot phase, make sure to add it to the oil phase. Once this is done, be prepared to mix for a long time to ensure there is a very even distribution. 5-30mins depending on batch size.Working with specialty ingredients like this can be intimidating but having small quantities of product available like this makes R&D very accessible.

Acrylate copolymer is a great ingredient for adding water resistance to cosmetic formulations. I’ve only made a small test batch of sunscreen with it so far, but it seemed to work perfectly. While I’m still fine-tuning my final recipe, this has been a promising addition to my formulation toolkit.
