Floral waxes are a by-product of the production of absolutes and are solid and aromatic waxes. Use these delicate waxes to create luscious lip balms, exotic solid perfumes and exquisite salves and ointments.

Please note these are, for the most part, very hard. It’s recommended that you melt the amount you need at very low temperature in a microwave or in a double boiler, it’s not recommended that the wax be placed in a pan directly on the heat as this may cause the wax to burn or scorch and this could be dangerous and a waste of money.

Once you’ve melted the amount of wax you need, you may add a small amount of warmed oil such as jojoba and mix well. Pour into your container and use it as solid perfume or lip balm.

If you wish to add the melted pure wax to your creams and lotions, follow the instructions for melting the wax and add the melted wax to the oil phase of your recipe.

You may also add the melted pure wax to cold process soap mixture. Keep in mind that by adding wax to a soap mixture the resulting bar may be a harder bar of soap and that the color of the mixture may also change slightly based on the coloring of the wax.

If you need only a few small pieces of wax, you can shave off a few slivers or slices with a sharp knife. The wax is gently enough to apply anywhere on the skin of adults.
