NYLON 6 is a commonly known synthetic material used as a fiber in eyelash lengtheners and mascaras, and as a molding compound to shape cosmetics. NYLON 6 gives bulk to a formulation and, when appropriate, provides opacifying properties. It can cause allergic reactions. Nylon-6, a condensation polymer, can be produced by chainwise, ring openings of cyclic amide (lactam) without expulsion of small molecules, and also by stepwise polycondensation of #>amino acid.
