Beeswax White

White beeswax, due to its pure color, is often used for cosmetics and soaps because of how manufacturers are given the leeway to add colorants to such products. Because it lacks the yellowish color of beeswax, white beeswax is ideal for those who want to make candles and other products with a whitish or light tone.

Benefits

Used in aromatherapy, Beeswax is known for its long, slow, clean, smoke-less burn. It not only exudes the aroma of honey but it also produces comparatively brighter flames, facilitates the elimination of airborne pollutants, and promotes the overall health of body and mind.

Used cosmetically, Beeswax hydrates, conditions, soothes and calms the skin. It exfoliates repairs damage, promotes the skin’s regeneration, diminishes the appearance of the signs of aging, relieves itchiness and irritation, and creates a hydrating, long-lasting protective barrier against environmental pollutants. Used in hair, Beeswax nourishes, conditions, and softens the strands while promoting the hair’s luster.

Used medicinally, Beeswax helps soothe and facilitate the healing of abrasions. It prevents harmful bacteria from entering the body through chapped and broken skin and it provides the skin with a layer of protection against external irritants. Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties benefit those who suffer from topical allergies or skin ailments, such as eczema and rosacea.

For candle making, natural beeswax burns cleaner and longer than petroleum-based paraffin waxes. It does not smoke as with petroleum-based paraffin. Made of 100% pure refined beeswax, this slow-burning wax is preferred when making aromatherapy-grade candles.
