Beeswax is an essential base material for handmade cosmetics.
Refined beeswax (bead wax/beeswax) is natural wax obtained from honeycomb, and serves as a key ingredient for making ointments and lip balms. It helps to keep the skin moist and soft. When making ointments or lip balms, it should be melted using a water bath. This is a refined type (white) with the color and scent removed.
