Product Description:
Beeswax is widely used in cosmetics and skincare products due to its natural emollient properties. It helps lock in moisture, making it a common ingredient in lip balms, lotions, and creams. Its thick consistency provides a protective barrier on the skin without clogging pores.
In the pharmaceutical industry, beeswax serves as a binding agent in pill coatings and ointments. It controls the release of active ingredients and improves texture.
Beeswax is also used in candle making because it burns cleanly and slowly with a pleasant natural scent. Unlike paraffin, it does not release toxic fumes when burned.
In food production, it is used as a glazing agent for candies and fruits to enhance appearance and extend shelf life. It is also used in cheese making to coat wheels of cheese, preventing drying and mold growth.
Artists and craftsmen use beeswax in encaustic painting, batik, and lost-wax casting due to its workability and natural adhesion. It is also used in woodworking as a polish and conditioner for tools and furniture.
