The pursuit of smooth, hydrated, and supple skin has driven innovation in skincare ingredients for decades. Among the many compounds that contribute to desirable skin feel, Polyquaternium-7 has emerged as a particularly effective and versatile player.

Polyquaternium-7 is a cationic copolymer, renowned for its ability to impart a luxurious sensory experience to skincare products. Its unique chemical structure allows it to interact with the skin in several beneficial ways, enhancing both feel and function.

One of the most frequently cited benefits of Polyquaternium-7 is the velvety smooth sensation it leaves on the skin. This is achieved through its film-forming properties. When applied, it forms a thin, continuous layer on the skin's surface. This film helps to reduce friction and imparts a silky-smooth texture, contributing to a pleasant application experience and a soft after-feel.

Beyond its sensory contributions, Polyquaternium-7 also acts as an excellent emollient and humectant. As a humectant, it attracts moisture from the environment and draws it into the skin. Its film-forming ability then helps to seal this moisture in, preventing transepidermal water loss (TEWL). This dual action results in skin that feels more hydrated, plump, and less prone to dryness or tightness, especially after cleansing.

In cleansing products like body washes and liquid soaps, Polyquaternium-7 not only conditions the skin but also improves the quality of the lather. It helps to create a richer, creamier foam that feels more luxurious and rinses off cleanly, leaving the skin feeling refreshed and conditioned rather than stripped or dry.

The compatibility of Polyquaternium-7 with a wide range of surfactants and other cosmetic ingredients makes it a valuable tool for formulators. At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., we understand the importance of ingredient synergy.
