BEES WAX - FILTERED

Beeswax is a natural substance produced by honeybees within their hives. It is a waxy substance secreted by worker bees from special glands on their abdomens. Initially colorless, beeswax takes on a yellowish hue as it ages and accumulates pollen and other hive debris. Beeswax has a distinct sweet and slightly floral scent, reminiscent of honey and the natural environment of the hive.

In its raw form, beeswax appears as opaque, solid blocks or flakes, with a smooth texture that can range from soft and pliable to firm and brittle depending on factors such as temperature and processing methods. When warmed, beeswax becomes malleable, making it easy to work with for various applications.

Known for its versatility and beneficial properties, beeswax has been used for centuries in a wide range of products, including cosmetics, skincare, candles, and woodworking. Its unique composition makes it an excellent natural emollient, providing moisturizing and protective properties to the skin and hair. Beeswax also possesses anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, making it beneficial for soothing and healing minor skin irritations.
