Pure beeswax is white, usually beeswax is light yellow, medium yellow or dark brown, which is caused by fat soluble carotenoids or other pigments in pollen and propolis. Under normal temperature, beeswax is in solid state, which has beeswax aroma similar to honey and bee flower powder.
Due to the enhancement of local skin metabolism of beeswax, the improvement of nutrition and the moistening effect of beeswax on the skin, it can keep the skin elastic and soft, prevent the skin from over relaxation and forming wrinkles, and is used for moistening, skin care, wrinkle removal, beauty and anti-aging.
Beeswax has good plasticity, viscosity, thermal expansion and contraction, so it can be closely attached to the skin on the body surface. With the diffusion and cooling of heat energy, beeswax gradually hardens, and its volume can be reduced by 10-20%, thus producing slight mechanical compression on the tissue.
