Bees Wax

INCI Name: Cera alba CAS: 8012-89-3

The honey bee, Apis Mellifera, secretes beeswax to build the walls of the honeycomb. Secreted wax is a transparent colorless liquid, which turns into a semi-solid substance on contact with the atmosphere. Beeswax is purified from its raw state by freeing it of solid impurities by melting and centrifugation .
