Overview
Polymethyl methacrylate is a powdered ingredient with an impressive sensory profile.
This ingredient is made up of tiny microspheres that have a ball-bearing effect within skincare products. A ball-bearing effect is where the microspheres roll smoothly across the skin and create the feeling of slip and high spreadability.
Polymethyl methacrylate, commonly known as PMMA, gives off a creamy, sometimes velvety feeling on the skin, and is frequently found in lotions, creams, and powder-based skincare products.
