    Pullulan is an excellent film former at higher use levels, but it’s pretty expensive especially compared to PVA

    Oh, great! I’ll reach out to some distributors to see if they sell it here in the country that I live in and how much does it cost. Thank you for the heads up!

    Hey!

    Does anyone knows if there’s a natural substitute for Polyvinyl Alcohol than can be used in peel-off masks? By natural I mean that it has to be approved by Ecorcert or Natrue.

    Any suggestion would be appreciated!

    Kind regards.

    Which grade of polyvinyl alcohol do you use
