I added the colloidal copper because it is suppose to increase collagen production in the skin. Im not sure what is in the polymer, TriethanolAmine is an alkanolamine and is classed as such. It is used as a pH adjuster and emulsifying surfactant as well as a fragrance ingredient and is also known as TEA and Trolamine. Triethanolamine is used as a pH balancer in a variety of different cosmetic products - ranging from skin lotion, eye gels, moisturizers, shampoos, shaving foams etc. As to your prevous post about using gelatin ,some gelatin is obtained by boiling the skin, tendons, and ligaments of animals, mostly cows. If it doesnt say vegetarian or derived from fish its made from dead boiled animal parts, dont know it thats considered natural or not. Sam L
