This is a polymer that works behind the scenes in your formula. It stabilizes emulsions, which means it helps oil and water stay mixed together instead of separating. It also controls how thick or thin your product feels on application. You won't feel it doing anything on your skin. It's there to keep your serum or moisturizer from breaking down and to give it the right texture. Pretty standard stuff in skincare.
