Pediatr Hematol Oncol 2012;29(3):285-292. View abstract. This natural wax complies with the BP specification and provides strength, stability and structure in formulations for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food industry. The first identified use of beeswax was to fill a cavity in 6500+ year-old tooth discovered by archeologist in Europe. Other ancient uses of beeswax were as an ingredient in nail polish and in medicine in early China (c. 2500 BCE), and as a haircare product, painting medium, and ingredient in embalming mummies in Egypt. Beeswax has been found on clay pots from the 5th millennium BCE—no doubt used as sealant to make the pots waterproof. Greeks and Romans mixed beeswax with olive oil and herbs to create salves to treat sores, cuts and burns, and as cosmetic creams to moisturize skin. Beeswax is an ingredient in surgical bone wax, which is used during surgery to control bleeding from bone surfaces; shoe polish and furniture polish can both use beeswax as a component, dissolved in turpentine or sometimes blended with linseed oil or tung oil; modeling waxes can also use beeswax as a component; pure beeswax can also be used as an organic surfboard wax. [18] Beeswax blended with pine rosin is used for waxing, and can serve as an adhesive to attach reed plates to the structure inside a squeezebox. It can also be used to make Cutler's resin, an adhesive used to glue handles onto cutlery knives. It is used in Eastern Europe in egg decoration; it is used for writing, via resist dyeing, on batik eggs (as in pysanky) and for making beaded eggs. The wax may be clarified further by heating in water. As with petroleum waxes, it may be softened by dilution with mineral oil or vegetable oil to make it more workable at room temperature.

The use of beeswax in skin care and cosmetics has been increasing. A German study found beeswax to be superior to similar barrier creams (usually mineral oil-based creams such as petroleum jelly), when used according to its protocol. [22]

Bee Health: Bees play a crucial role in pollinating plants and the production of honey, and their health is essential to the sustainability of our ecosystem. When purchasing beauty and personal care products that contain beeswax, choosing products that are produced using ethical and sustainable practices is vital. This includes using methods that do not harm the bees or their hives, such as sustainable beekeeping practices and protecting wild habitats. As an edible substance, it can be eaten, and while not digestible, it can provide roughage and some beneficial chemicals to the human system. One of the most popular applications of beeswax is in skin care products. This is because beeswax has several beneficial properties for the skin, including:Pure or filtered beeswax is used to treat diaper dermatitis, psoriasis and eczema; moisturize the skin; protect the liver; lower cholesterol levels; relieve pain; reduce inflammation; promote relaxation; and more.

Natural and sustainable: Unlike many synthetic products, beeswax is a natural substance produced by bees and is, therefore, sustainable and environmentally friendly. Healing: Beeswax has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties that make it ideal for treating skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.

The worker bee collects the wax from her abdomen with her legs. She masticates the wax until it’s pliable and shapes it into the hexagonal cells that make up the honeycomb. Beeswax is edible, having similarly negligible toxicity to plant waxes, and is approved for food use in most countries and in the European Union under the E number E901. However, due to its inability to be broken down by the human digestive system, it has insignificant nutritional value. [1] Production [ edit ]

Protecting: Beeswax forms a protective barrier on the skin and hair that helps to protect against environmental stressors, such as wind, cold, and sun. White beeswax has a very neutral scent, you won’t notice it in your finished product. Is beeswax good for the face? Beeswax is an incredibly versatile substance — it can be mixed into solutions to create a host of medical, cosmetic and home care products, made into candles, eaten, melted and molded into ornaments and used as a sealant. It’s common to think of beeswax candles when you think of beeswax. This is a good thing since candles made from paraffin can endanger your health and that of your family due to the soot from paraffin wax that can be inhaled. Also, it can cause significant damage to the inside of your house, such as your computers, electrical appliances and ductwork. Downs, Colleen T; van Dyk, Robyn J; Iji, Paul (September 2002).
