Crude Beeswax is a natural wax produced in the hive by worker bees of the genus Apis mellifera (European Honey Bee). It is completely unrefined - retaining its natural color and characteristic smell.

Beeswax is an amazing ingredient that can be added to a wide range of "home-made" cosmetics such as:

• soaps
• balms
• lotion bars
• lip balms
• candles
• perfume bases

It is a completely natural product that softens the skin and is suitable for people with dry, irritable, or very sensitive skin. You will find it in many baby skincare products.

Due to its antioxidant properties, beeswax is often used in the preparation of cosmetics that offer a "shield of protection" against environmental pollution.
