About Beeswax

What is Beeswax?

Beeswax is a unique natural wax secreted by worker honeybees to make a honeycomb. Beeswax is a byproduct of the extraction process when beekeepers harvest honey. The wax is hard and breakable when cold but soft and pliable when heated. It can be reheated and reused because beeswax does not spoil or expire otherwise. For example, beeswax found in ancient shipwrecks is still usable.

The color of natural wax varies from almost white to dark brown, depending on the type of flowers and region where the bees live. Usually, it changes along the yellow spectrum, appearing to be bright yellow, butterscotch yellow, or light amber. Besides, this extraordinary natural substance smells heavenly, and you can use it in many ways.

Common Uses

Since ancient times, people have been using beeswax as a lubricant and waterproofing agent, a polish for wood and leather, an ingredient in cosmetics and medicine, a material for candle making, and as an artistic medium in encaustic painting. Also, nowadays, there are thousands of applications of beeswax in manufacturing, crafts, healthcare, cosmetic industry, aromatherapy, industrial applications, etc.

There are also many things you can do with this gift from nature. For example, beeswax is a wonderful substance to create various homemade products. When you use beeswax to make your natural cosmetics or for a variety of hobby and craft activities, you can rest assured that you are making a practical, healthy, and eco-friendly choice.

Beeswax is particularly popular for candle making due to its long, slow, clean, and smokeless burning. It has the delightful aroma of sweet honey, and it also produces a comparatively brighter flame. In addition, beeswax candles facilitate the elimination of airborne pollutants and promote the overall health of the body and mind.

Due to the many therapeutic properties of beeswax, it is often used in medicine and cosmetics. It has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, protective, regenerative, and strengthening properties. These qualities offer the perfect balance of nourishment to calm the skin, keep it clean and bacteria-free, heal wounds and fight infections.

How to Store?

Beeswax never spoils, but it can melt when stored at high temperatures. We recommend storing it in a clean place at room temperature (15-25 ℃) away from direct sunlight.

Keep in mind that beeswax, being fairly soft and tacky, has a tendency to pick up dust, dirt, or fuzz. Store the beeswax in a closed plastic or glass container to keep it clean.

If stored for a longer period of time, the colour of beeswax becomes lighter, and its special sweet fragrance becomes less intense.
