Similar to our Beeswax Pastilles - Yellow Cosmetic, but in a bulk chunk form, this beeswax is a versatile and premium ingredient, perfect for both personal care formulations and those looking for a clean, bright yellow beeswax for candle-making. Naturally refined and filtered to remove impurities, this pure beeswax retains its bright yellow hue with a light aroma, making it an ideal choice for those seeking this gift from the bees in their cosmetic creations.

In personal care products, Natural Beeswax is prized for its skin-loving properties. It acts as a natural emollient, creating a protective barrier on the skin that helps to lock in moisture while allowing the skin to breathe. Whether you're formulating lip balms, body butters, or salves, this beeswax provides the perfect balance of texture and firmness, enhancing the overall quality and effectiveness of your products.

For candle makers, this beeswax offers excellent burn quality, producing a warm, steady flame that enhances the ambiance of any room. Its high melting point ensures that your candles have a longer burn time and a smooth, even finish, making it an excellent choice for crafting dipped tapers, pillar candles, votives, and container candles.  For those wanting a more unrefined beeswax product with the traditional scent and appearance, we recommend our Canadian sourced Raw Beeswax Chunks


Using Beeswax in Personal Care Products

Beeswax is a versatile ingredient in personal care formulations, offering moisturizing and protective benefits to the skin. To incorporate beeswax into products like lip balms, body butters, salves or cold and hot process soaps, begin by measuring and melting the beeswax in a double boiler. Once the beeswax has melted, combine it with other oils and butters, stirring continuously until all ingredients are fully blended.

Beeswax helps to thicken these formulations, providing a firm yet smooth texture that is easy to apply. It acts as a natural barrier on the skin, locking in moisture and protecting against environmental factors, making it an essential ingredient for nourishing, long-lasting skincare products.

Using Beeswax in Candle Making

Beeswax is a cherished ingredient in candle making, known for its natural golden color, subtle honey aroma, and clean-burning properties. To use beeswax in candle making, start by measuring the desired amount of beeswax. Melt the beeswax slowly in a double boiler, ensuring that the temperature remains below 170°F (77°C) to prevent scorching or discoloration. Once melted, you can add essential oils or natural fragrances if desired, though beeswax's natural scent often needs no enhancement. Beeswax is wonderful for making hand dipped taper candles, pillars, votives and container candles.

What is Bloom?

  • Over time, 100% Pure Beeswax can develop a naturally occurring white film on its surface. This white film is known as bloom, and is similar to what occurs with pure chocolate over time, and serves as an indication of the purity of the wax.
  • If you do not like the look of bloom, it can easily be removed by buffing the surface of the candle with a soft cloth or applying a low amount of heat gradually with a tool like a hair dryer.
