INCI Name: Cera Alba
Molecular Formula: C15H31CO0C3OH61.
The ingredients are 98% pure.
Appearance: beads (yellow)
Cosmetic Grade: Refined Our White Beeswax Beads are cosmetic grade and have been bleached and filtered to remove contaminants. They are then formed into little pellets for simple application. Our Beeswax Beads are made from natural ingredients and processed without the use of chemicals. The natural wax is melted and filtered through active carbon to remove the aroma and colour, which can range from white to off-white.
BENEFITS AND USES:
• Crystalline structure binds solvents or oils together.
• Forms a protective barrier to prevent sweating out of compositions.
• Beeswax candles have a longer burn time and are easy to clean. They burn brighter and do not bend.
• Beeswax is used in art materials as a binder in wax paintings and a stabiliser in oil paints to provide solidity.
• It is a healthier and more natural alternative to mineral-based petroleum jelly.
• It is commonly found in lip balms, glosses, hand creams, moisturisers, eye shadows, blushes, and eyeliners.
• It is also a key element in beard waxes and hair pomades, giving hair a sleek and shining appearance.
• It increases your product's spreadability. The suggested concentration range is 1 to 12%.
Solubility: It's insoluble in water but soluble in oils.
Caution: This wax has a melting point of 62°-67° C (143°-152° F). Overheating will affect the aroma and colour. Melt at a low heat, stirring gently, and use immediately to avoid poor quality outcomes like burnt odours and off-white colour.
HOW TO USE: Heat the water and oil phases of your mixture separately. Melt beeswax in hot oil using a double-boiler pot. Before the oil phase cools, add a few spoonful of olive oil. Use a mini-mixer to combine both phases into a homogeneous mixture.
