Cera bellina Wax is derived from beeswax. It is hydrophilic, which means it can be easily incorporated into water-based lotions, creams and balms to provide a smooth, luxurious, satin-like texture. Cera Bellina Wax allows oils and butters to be gelled using relatively low wax concentrations. Cera Bellina Wax can also be used as a co-emulsifier or thickener in your lotion and serum formulations because it inhibits crystallization in the oil phase.
Sold by the gram, $0.2100/g. Please bring or order a bag
MINIMUM ORDER IS 100g OR $5 WORTH and buy a bag or other suitable container (search JAR or BOTTLE on our website).
You can bring your own container if you are picking up. Please make sure that you bring bottles for liquids and wide-mouthed jars or bags for solids. Please make sure that the containers you bring are the right size. To use your container for oils, the bottle must be exactly the right size because I will be filling your order by volume. A 1000mL J jar, not a quart jar. In case of shorting due to metric versus imperial measures, I may fill your container right to the top, your measure might be short, or I may ask you to buy an extra container.
