FAQs

Questions

Are natural beeswax pellets suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes – hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic; ideal for lip balms, baby care, and eczema formulas.

How do they differ from blocks or refined white?
Pellets are convenient pre-filtered beads; natural retains honey scent/colour vs. refined white (neutral).

What's the usage in cold-process soap?
1-3% for harder, longer-lasting bars; SAP ~0.069 NaOH – add to oils.

Can they be used in candles or lip balms?
Yes – 100% for clean-burning candles; 20-30% in balms for gloss and protection.

Is this beeswax vegan?
No – animal-derived from honeybees. Consider candelilla/carnauba for vegan options.

How to melt for formulations?
Double boiler at 65°C; pour candles at 70°C for best scent throw.

How to store in Australia's climate?
Cool, dry pantry; stable solid – 2-5 year shelf life.

Why pellets over blocks?
Faster, even melt without cutting/straining – saves time for consistent results.
