Candelilla Wax is a 100% natural plant wax obtained from the bushes of candelilla plants (Euphorbia Certifera). This hard and brittle wax is composed of about 50% hydrocarbons with smaller amounts of esters and free acids.

Candelilla Wax is traditionally used to harden stick formulations. Its surface can reach high levels of brilliance once refined, delivering good surface gloss in a variety of applications. Candelilla Wax is often used in combination with carnauba wax, beeswax and other waxes to improve skin feel, adhesion and pay-off properties.
