Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer is a synthetic polymer used in skincare as an emulsifier, stabilizer, thickener, and gelling agent. It helps create stable emulsions, thickens and stabilizes products, and works over a wide pH range. It is also used as a dispersing agent to aid in the distribution of beneficial ingredients like UV filters. It is often combined with ingredients such as isohexadecane, various polysorbates, and a blend of dimethicone- or siloxane-based silicones to create appealing aesthetics.
