Guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride is a substance used in cosmetic formulations. Guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride has an antistatic effect (reduces static charges by neutralizing the electrical charge on the surface of skin and hair). Guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride also acts as a film former (forms a film on skin, hair or nails when applied) and viscosity regulator (increases or decreases the viscosity of cosmetic products).
