For adults (grownups), crosspolymer is usually safe when put on normal, unbroken skin. It mainly helps with texture and thickness in creams and lotions. The biggest worry in the safety data isn't the polymer itself but possible contamination left over from manufacturing.
Use products that come from trusted brands and that state they test for impurities. Do a small patch test on your inner forearm if you have sensitive skin. Don’t apply to open cuts or irritated skin. Avoid inhaling any powder or spray form. If a product causes burning, strong stinging, or a rash, stop use and rinse the area.
The safety listing flags contamination concerns (examples named include methacrylic acid, acrylic acid, and benzene) and recommends limits on impurities and concentrations. Also watch for skin, eye, or breathing irritation. These warnings come from the ingredient safety information provided with the product data. If a product label or brand states it does not test for impurities, be cautious.
