Candelilla wax comes to us from the tree of Euphorbia Antisyphillitica and Pedilanthus Pavonis and is predominant in most parts of Mexico. Because of its safe and continued use in food and cosmetics it is popularly incorporated into numerous applications including balms, lotions, chewing gum, solid lotion bars, lip glosses, candles and lipsticks. Because of its high ester, fatty acid and resin properties it is one of the best suited ingredients for increasing the protective coating on cosmetic applications and is a great vegan alternative to traditional beeswax.
This versitile wax is a natural wax in granular form, from the Candelilla plant. This product is twice bleached and filtered to a light yellow color.
It can be purchased from Soapcrafters (http://www.soapcrafters.com/), Majestic Mountain Sage (http://www.thesage.com/), and Mountain Rose Herbs (http://www.mountainroseherbs.com/).
