CosIng Definition: Producing (upon application) a continuous film on the skin, hair or nails.
Film-forming agents are ingredients that create a continuous, flexible layer on the surface of the skin, hair, or nails after application. This film can serve multiple purposes, such as enhancing water resistance, improving wear time, providing a smooth feel, or protecting against environmental factors. Film-formers are commonly found in sunscreens, foundations, hair sprays, and nail polishes.
