Polyquaternium-7 is a water-soluble polymer that is commonly used in hair and skin care products. It is a type of cationic polymer that is positively charged, meaning it can interact with negatively charged surfaces like hair and skin. Polyquaternium-7 can help to improve the texture and feel of hair, reduce static electricity, enhance shine, and improve manageability. It can also act as a conditioning agent for the skin, helping to improve hydration and reduce irritation. Additionally, polyquaternium-7 is known for its ability to form a thin film on the surface of hair and skin, which can provide a protective barrier against environmental pollutants and other harmful substances. Overall, polyquaternium-7 is a versatile ingredient that can benefit both hair and skin care products.
