It's
quite amazing the number of people who report allergies and symptoms
relating to products containing chemicals especially sulfates like
SLS and SLES which are known irritants of skin and hair cells. SLS
can be absorbed by the liver and can mimic the effect of the hormone
estrogen in the body. Additionally, sulfates can contain 1.4-dioxane,
which is considered a probable carcinogen.
Beeswax
is the perfect ingredient for skin care products because the wax
esters are very similar to those naturally occurring in human skin,
enabling it to bind and emulsify ointments, lipsticks and lotions.
As
a natural hydrating ingredient, beeswax increases essential moisture
in skin and relieve itching of sensitive skin. It is
non-irritating and will not clog the pores.
Beeswax
has general healing and softening properties and is also useful
as an antiseptic.
Beeswax
is used as an emollient to cosmetic products. In foaming cosmetics
such as skin and body detergents, beeswax improves skin compatibility
and reduces the aggressive properties of surfactants, while in shampoos
and hair conditioners it improves the hair condition and manageability.
Many of our customers have discovered relief and enjoyment in natural
products - greatly enhanced their well-being.
