Expert Verdict
Acrylate copolymers have been assessed by CIR and generally found safe as used in cosmetics; residual monomer levels (especially methyl acrylate) must be controlled as they can be skin sensitizers. Polymeric UV absorber - stabilizes other UV filters and photosensitive actives rather than providing direct SPF contribution; synthetic origin
