AMMONIUM ACRYLOYLDIMETHYLTAURATE/VP COPOLYMER
Is AMMONIUM ACRYLOYLDIMETHYLTAURATE/VP COPOLYMER safe for seborrheic dermatitis?
There is not enough seborrheic-dermatitis-specific evidence to label Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer especially helpful or harmful. It is a texture and stability ingredient, not a fatty oil, fragrance or treatment active.
No applicable exact-ingredient human seb derm or Malassezia study was found. Because this polymer mainly controls how a product feels and flows, other ingredients are more likely to determine whether the finished formula suits inflamed skin.
