Beeswax in Cosmetics
Long-Lasting Burn
Made from 100% pure, refined beeswax, our Beeswax Yellow Beads are ideal for candle making. Beeswax candles are known for their long, clean burn and produce little to no smoke, unlike petroleum-based waxes. Naturally fragrant, these slow-burning beads have a melting point of 146°F, making them a premium choice for high-quality candles.
Skin Benefits
Beeswax isn’t just for candles—it offers a range of cosmetic benefits as well. Naturally hydrating and conditioning, beeswax creates a protective barrier on the skin while soothing and nourishing. It’s commonly used in lip balms, lotions, salves, deodorants, and hair care products for its moisturizing and skin-protective qualities.
Pure, Natural Color
Our Beeswax Yellow Beads range in color from light yellow to deep yellow, depending on the batch, as color variations are natural. Over time, the color may appear lighter due to exposure to light or heat or from the natural process of efflorescence, which can create a hazy surface as minor components migrate to the surface.
Caution
To preserve its natural fragrance, beeswax should be melted at the lowest possible temperature, stirring gently. Overheating can impact its delicate aroma, so it’s best to use as soon as it reaches a fully melted state.
DESCRIPTION
Our Beeswax Yellow Beads are crafted from 100% pure, refined beeswax, making them a top choice for high-quality, eco-friendly candle making. Beeswax is a natural alternative to paraffin, producing a long-lasting burn and minimal smoke. Additionally, beeswax is rich in cosmetic benefits, offering natural hydration, conditioning, and a protective barrier for the skin. It’s a versatile ingredient used in lip balms, lotions, salves, deodorants, and hair pomades, enhancing products with its moisture-retaining and skin-soothing properties.
Beeswax has a naturally occurring light to yellow color, which may vary slightly with each batch. Exposure to light, heat, or efflorescence—a natural process where minor components migrate to the surface—can lighten the color or create a hazy appearance over time.
