Natural Yellow Beeswax Pearls For Cosmetic Use And Polish Use
Origin of Yellow Beeswax Pearls:
Beeswax is a natural wax derived from honeybees. Typically ten (10) pounds of honey yields one (1) pound of beeswax. When originally formed, wax in the honeycomb is nearly white, but yellows with the addition of natural oils introduced by pollen from flowers. Beeswax is collected directly from the honeycombs of a beehive and can be found in different forms. Do to its high melting point; beeswax’s already easy workability is enhanced when in granules/pearl form.

Storage of beeswax
Beeswax has no special requirements for storage conditions, but due to the influence of the physical properties of beeswax, many things must be paid attention to in the storage process to avoid losses.
Beeswax is a fatty substance and is solid at room temperature. Therefore, beeswax can be stored at room temperature to achieve long-term permanent storage. Generally, it should be placed in a dry, ventilated, and cool place, not in a place directly exposed to the sun, and no exposure to the sun. Long-term sun exposure will not only reduce the color of beeswax, but also slowly melt and decompose the beeswax until it is completely decomposed and volatilized. Beeswax is a flammable substance. It must be stored away from fire and power sources to prevent fire.
