Processing Methods & Reference Formulations
A. Cosmetic cream
In cosmetic cream production, melt beeswax in the oil phase to ensure complete liquefaction. Blend with other oils before emulsification to achieve a smooth texture and stable consistency.
| Key Ingredients | Indicative Dosage (% w/w) |
|---|---|
| Emollients | 5–20% |
| Emulsifiers | 2-6% |
| Humectants (e.g., glycerin) | 2-8% |
| Beeswax | 1-3% |
B. Lip balm
In lip balm production, melt beeswax with oils and butters until fully liquefied. Pour the mixture into molds while still warm but not hot to ensure smooth setting and prevent graininess.
| Key Ingredients | Indicative Dosage (% w/w) |
|---|---|
| Castor Oil | 30% |
| Beeswax | 25% |
| Candelilla Wax | 10% |
| Cocoa Butter | 5% |
| Shea Butter | 5% |
| Jojoba Oil | 5% |
| Titanium Dioxide | 2% |
| Iron Oxide | 0.5% |
| Vitamin E Acetate | 1% |
| Tocopherol | 0.5% |
C. Soap formulation
When adding beeswax to soap, melt it gently with your oils before mixing with lye to ensure even distribution. Beeswax can slow trace, so adjust mixing times accordingly. Avoid overheating to preserve its natural aroma and beneficial properties.
| Key Ingredients | Indicative Dosage (% w/w) |
|---|---|
| Palm Oil | 23.5% |
| Olive Oil | 23.5% |
| Coconut Oil | 11.8% |

| Key Ingredients | Indicative Dosage (% w/w) |
|---|---|
| Beeswax | 8-12% |
| Carrier Oil (e.g., Jojoba Oil, Sweet Almond Oil) | 15-25% |
| Pigments (Iron Oxides, Titanium Dioxide) | 10-20% |
| Water / Aloe Vera Juice | 30-40% |
| Emulsifier (e.g., Glyceryl Stearate) | 3-5% |
| Preservative (e.g., Phenoxyethanol) | 0.5-1% |
