Candelilla wax

(0 review)
Candelilla Wax (Cosmetic Grade) is a natural, plant-derived hard wax obtained from the leaves of the Euphorbia cerifera shrub. It is widely used in cosmetic and personal care formulations as a structuring agent, thickener, and consistency enhancer. Candelilla wax provides firmness, gloss, and improved stability to anhydrous and emulsion-based products. It is an excellent vegan alternative to beeswax, improving texture, hardness, and heat resistance. In cosmetics, it enhances payoff, reduces oiliness, and gives a smooth, glossy finish. Due to its high melting point and compatibility with oils and butters, Candelilla Wax is commonly used in lip care, balms, sticks, creams, and makeup formulations.
