## Description

## Features

- ✅ CHIHUAHUAN DESERT - Our candelilla wax is a plant-based wax that is grown and harvested in Mexico. The candelilla plant, also known as Euphorbia Cerifera, is native to the semi-arid regions of northern Mexico, where it thrives in the hot and dry climate. The plant is harvested during the dry season when the leaves are rich in wax.
- ✅ VERSATILE WAX - Candelilla wax is used in a wide variety of applications across multiple industries. Candelilla wax is a popular ingredient in the cosmetics industry, where it is used in lip balms, lotions, and other skin care products due to its ability to provide a natural emollient that helps to moisturize the skin. Additionally, this wax is commonly used in the production of candles, where it provides a hard, glossy finish and a slow, even burn.
- ✅ SKIN - Turn back the clock on your fine lines and wrinkles. Exfoliate and moisturize with this all-natural vegan wax that will take your skin care routine to the next level. Candelilla wax can help soothe dry and itchy skin by providing a protective barrier that retains moisture.
- ✅ HAIR CARE - When used on the scalp, candelilla wax can help soothe dry and itchy scalp by providing a protective barrier that locks in moisture. It also helps to prevent scalp dandruff by regulating oil production and reducing dryness. Additionally, candelilla wax can help to nourish and strengthen hair strands, making them less prone to breakage and split ends.
- ✅ PELLETS: Our Candelilla wax comes in small pellet form for accurate measurements and even melting.
- ✅ INGREDIENTS: Euphorbia Cerifera "Candelilla Wax"

## Questions & Answers

**Q: To make a batch of of 48 chapsticks, how much would i use? How fast would this go away?**
A: It's not the typical 1:1:1 (beeswax/butters/oils)... this vegan wax is harder than beeswax so you use less.  I use 25 grams of this, to 40 gm butters (mango & kokum) and 30 gm oils (coconut, jojoba and vit E)... then my optional 3ml flavor.   Makes 18-20 0.15oz tubes for me, way better than chapsticks. So you use maybe 1/4 cup, or so to make 48.  Just a guesstimate, so this 1 pound bag will last forever. It's a great product, and a great deal. Vegan! :)

**Q: How many cups (volume) are in the 16 oz bag? Not based on weight.**
A: It's about 2 cups

**Q: Would this be good for natural deodorant?**
A: Yes, some people like to use it because it makes the deodorant more solid.

**Q: Is this organic?**
A: No

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Quality
*by A***R on May 17, 2024*

I absolutely love this, it is such great quality. I make my own chapstick because I am allergic to beeswax and it works amazing. It would be great for other things too. Highly Recommend!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You use less of than beeswax so you get a lot for the money
*by I***E on July 24, 2023*

I use candelilla wax to make lip balms and lotion bars. You use half of what you would use with beeswax because it's a harder wax. The result is smoother than beeswax, but just as moisture preserving. I used 1 teaspoon of wax to yield 10 lip balms to give you an idea of how much goes a long way. There is a smell not unlike burnt sage - it's slight, but with the lotion bars I could detect it, and with the lip balm it was undetectable (and the lip balm is only flavored with peppermint). It's pleasant to me, but something to consider.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality

Perfect for what I needed it for
