Protective, healing, film-forming

Yellow beeswax is the most traditional form of beeswax (Cera Alba). Unbleached, it retains its natural golden color and characteristic rich, warm scent. It is valued for its authenticity and protective benefits, making it an essential ingredient in natural and artisanal cosmetic formulations.

Cosmetic indications

It is used as a thickening, stabilizing, and film-forming agent. Its color and aroma make it ideal for traditional and natural products such as nourishing balms, ointments, rich creams, and protective sticks. Its concentration of active components also makes it a sought-after ingredient in organic cosmetics.

Specific components and properties

INCI: Paraffin, C10–18 Triglycerides, Cera Alba, Stearic Acid.
It contains fatty acid esters, hydrocarbons, and stearic acid, which contribute to its plasticity and structuring role. As a film-forming agent, it protects skin by creating a soft, natural barrier that retains moisture. Its yellow color comes from carotenoids and residual propolis.

Practical uses

• Face and body care: ointments, protective and nourishing balms.
• Lips: tinted or natural lip sticks and balms.
• Hair care: natural styling waxes, repairing balms.
• Artisanal products: soaps, ointments, organic treatments.
