In some embodiments, a polymer film includes a base composition of poly(ethylene-vinyl acetate) and a surface composition comprising hydroxy groups. In some embodiments, a polymer film includes a base layer of a first composition of poly(ethylene-vinyl acetate), a surface layer at a surface of the base layer, and a coating layer of a second composition of a copolymer of glycerol and sebacic acid. The surface layer includes surface hydroxy groups converted from acetate groups of the poly(ethylene-vinyl acetate). The second composition is attached to the surface layer by ester bonds between carboxyl groups of the copolymer and the hydroxy groups. A single-use bioreactor bag includes a polymer film including a base composition of poly(ethylene-vinyl acetate) and a surface composition comprising hydroxy groups. A method of modifying a poly(ethylene-vinyl acetate) film includes converting acetate groups at a first surface of the poly(ethylene-vinyl acetate) film to hydroxy groups.

A method of forming a skin care product includes combining at least one additive including at least one active ingredient with at least one glycerol-sebacate component having repeating units of (glycerol sebacate), water, a co-solvent, and at least one of an emulsifier, a surfactant, and a bodying agent to form the skin care product. A dermocosmetic composition includes at least one additive including at least one active ingredient and at least one glycerol-sebacate component having repeating units of (glycerol sebacate). A method of skin care includes applying a dermocosmetic composition to a skin surface.
