In this capacity, it can impart water-resistance to formulations, including sunscreens. It may also add thickening properties, depending on the formula and amount of acrylates copolymer used. This ingredient is also used in other types of beauty products including hair care, nail care, and makeup where it can take on various other functions including: adhesive, artificial nail builder, binding agent, hair fixative, and suspending agent. One comparative study looked at whether acrylates copolymer could be beneficial in body washes to reduce skin itchiness. Their results concluded that the inclusion of acrylates copolymer was successful; their theory being that the film-forming properties help reduce friction between skin and clothing, which in turn decreases skin irritation. In its physical form, suppliers of acrylates copolymer describe it as white beads or as a white powder. In 2019, the Cosmetics Ingredient Review Expert Panel reaffirmed acrylates copolymer as “safe for use in cosmetics when formulated to avoid irritation.” Their report looked at products containing a supremely wide range, as low as 0.00025 up to 98.6%.
