Beeswax Beads White Cosmetic Grade - 500g

Beeswax Beads Refined White 500g Warm, sweet and naturally scented, Beeswax is a natural substance obtained from the honeycomb of the honeybee. Beeswax is often used as a thickener, emulsifier or stiffening agent in various cosmetics, as well as other uses such as polishing furniture and carvings. It can also be used alone for making pure beeswax candles, working to improve a candle's colour and lengthen its burning time. The white Beeswax ensures that the colour is intensified.

• Beeswax Beads White - Cosmetic Grade - 500g
• White Beeswax is the wax obtained by melting the walls of the honeycomb made by the honey-bee, Apis mellifera L., with hot water and removing the foreign matter. Once the wax has cooled down, it sets ready for treatment with oxidant agents (bleaching), to obtain White Beeswax.
• Uses: Naturally scented White Beeswax Beads can be used to lengthen a candle's burning time. The hardness of beeswax makes it unsuitable for direct use as an ointment base, but its high capacity for absorbing water is exploited in mixtures with liquid paraffin or oils as an emulsifier in lipsticks, face-creams, lotions, mascaras, eye-creams, eye shadow, make-up, de-keratinising products (body cream) and nail-white pencils.
• In this partially synthetic beeswax, the chemical and physical properties are comparable to normal beeswax.
• Ingredients: Paraffin, Glyceryl palmitate and-stearate, Beeswax and Stearic acid
