About Methylcellulose

Methylcellulose is the methyl ether of cellulose.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to help formula ingredients bind together and maintain their form, prevent emulsions of water and oil from separating easily, and keep the formulation’s state and properties from changing readily during storage.[2] It is also used to control viscosity and flow.[2]
