A synthetic polymer that is typically used as a viscosity modifier. Its benefits include a light after-feel on the skin and soft film, which is why it is frequently used in serums. It can form transparent gels and suspend some oils and particulates.

Overview
Glyceryl polymethacrylate is a polymer typically dispersed in water, glycerin or propylene glycol. It is typically used as a viscosity modifier to alter the rheology of formulations.
Typical benefits include a light after-feel on the skin, soft film, which is why it is used in serums quite frequently. It can form transparent gels and suspend some oils and particulates and is mainly used in skincare products.
It has an added benefit of promoting moisturization on the skin versus other rheology modifiers that thicken water. It is not naturally derived as it is modified with glycerin and polymethylacrylic acid.
