Ingredient
Organic Carnauba Wax
Copernicia cerifera
Benefits
Natural
Carnauba wax palm is native to Brazil, and its leaves are covered in a waxy coating to prevent water loss. This wax is obtained by drying these leaves in the sun, which turns the wax to dust that is removed and melted with water, then strained and cooled.
We use carnauba wax in blends with other thickening ingredients, like cocoa butter, to harden the texture of a product. Like all waxes, it creates a protective layer and adds shine and luster to skin and hair.
