Properties and benefits of Beeswax

Beeswax offers many virtues. Naturally composed of vitamin A, pollen, propolis (antioxidant, anti-microbial and purifying) and fatty substances (nourishing), it forms a natural, invisible and protective film on the skin. This feature has many advantages: incorporated in your preparations, it allows your cosmetic treatments to better maintain skin hydration.

100% natural, it forms a very effective (but also light) shield against external aggressions (pollution, cold, wind, UV rays, etc.) without ever clogging the pores of the skin. Beeswax is an essential ingredient as its virtues are numerous. It is particularly recommended for damaged skin of which it will accelerate healing. The skin is better hydrated, nourished and protected.

How to apply Beeswax?

It is recommended to use in the preparation of balms, creams, butters, sticks, bar soaps, deodorants ...

-Body butter for very dry skin: Melt in a bain-marie 30 g of shea butter with 5 g of beeswax and 70 ml of avocado oil. Out of the bain-marie, add 11 drops of vitamin E and mix. Cool the bowl in a pot of ice water, stirring. Leave to harden for 30 minutes in the refrigerator. Apply to clean, dry skin and massage.

-Exotic massage candle: Pour in a bowl 10 g of beeswax, 40 g of soy wax, 10 g of babassu butter and 6 drops of vitamin E. Melt this mixture in a double boiler. Meanwhile, take the wick and its metal support out of the bag and take the candle glass. Lightly dip the metal foot in the melting mixture to coat it with a little wax, then quickly place it in the center of the candle glass (before the wax cools). This operation makes it possible to "stick" the wick and its base to the bottom of the candle glass. When the wax has completely melted in the bowl, take it out of the double boiler and add 20 drops of mandarin essential oil and 10 drops of ylang-ylang essential oil. Mix to obtain a homogeneous color then pour your preparation while still hot in the candle glass. Let cool for a few hours. Light the candle and gently massage your body with the melted wax.
