Almond Wax
Almond Wax is a natural, plant-based wax derived from the hydrogenation of almond oil (Prunus amygdalus dulcis). It is a creamy to white, semi-solid wax with a mild, nutty scent and excellent emollient properties. Almond Wax is rich in fatty acids and has a smooth, soft texture, making it ideal for use in cosmetic, personal care, and candle formulations.
Due to its gentle consistency, skin-friendly profile, and moisturizing capabilities, Almond Wax is widely used in body butters, balms, lip care products, massage bars, and artisan soaps. It functions as a natural alternative to petroleum-based waxes and provides structure, viscosity, and glide to formulations. It also finds application in soft wax blends for natural candle products.
Beeswax
Beeswax is a natural wax produced by honeybees of the genus Apis. It is secreted by worker bees from specialized glands and used to build honeycomb cells. Beeswax is a complex mixture of esters, fatty acids, and hydrocarbons, characterized by a pale yellow to brown color, a pleasant honey-like aroma, and a firm yet pliable texture. It has excellent emulsifying, binding, and protective properties, making it widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, food, and industrial applications. Beeswax is prized for its natural origin, biodegradability, and skin-friendly characteristics.
Camelia Oil Infused
Camelia Oil Infused is a gentle, nutrient-rich botanical oil made by infusing the flowers or leaves of the Camellia sinensis or Camellia japonica plant into a carrier oil such as olive, jojoba, or sweet almond oil. Unlike cold-pressed camellia seed oil, this infusion captures a wider spectrum of antioxidant polyphenols, flavonoids, and saponins from the plant material, delivering enhanced skin and hair benefits. Known for its lightweight, non-greasy texture and rapid absorption, Camellia Infused Oil is deeply moisturizing and ideal for sensitive, dry, or aging skin.
Popular in Japanese and Korean beauty traditions, this oil is often used to promote skin elasticity, smoothness, and overall rejuvenation, making it a preferred ingredient in natural cosmetic and personal care products.
Coffee Butter
Coffee Butter is a natural, plant-derived fat extracted primarily from the coffee seed pulp or coffee cherry, sometimes from the coffee bean itself. It is a creamy, pale yellow to light brown solid at room temperature with a mild coffee aroma. Coffee Butter is rich in fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins, making it a valuable ingredient in cosmetics, skincare, and specialty food products. Known for its emollient, moisturizing, and antioxidant properties, Coffee Butter helps to nourish and protect the skin while providing a pleasant sensory experience. It is gaining popularity as a sustainable by-product of coffee processing, contributing to zero-waste initiatives.
Fatty Acid
Fatty acids are a group of carboxylic acids consisting of long aliphatic chains, which can be either saturated or unsaturated. They are typically derived from natural fats and oils through hydrolysis or saponification and appear as colorless to pale yellow liquids or solids depending on the chain length and degree of saturation. Fatty acids are fundamental building blocks in biochemistry and industrial chemistry, serving as raw materials in the manufacture of soaps, detergents, lubricants, cosmetics, plastics, and food additives. Their amphiphilic nature—containing both hydrophilic (carboxyl group) and hydrophobic (alkyl chain) components—makes them versatile for various chemical and industrial applications.
Jojoba Wax
Jojoba Wax is a natural, golden-yellow to amber-colored wax ester extracted from the seeds of the jojoba plant (Simmondsia chinensis). Unlike traditional vegetable oils, jojoba wax is chemically a liquid wax, known for its excellent stability, moisturizing properties, and similarity to human sebum. It is odorless or mildly nutty and is widely used in cosmetics, personal care, and pharmaceutical applications as an emollient, thickener, and skin conditioning agent.
Oleic Acid
Oleic Acid is a naturally occurring monounsaturated fatty acid commonly derived from vegetable oils such as olive, sunflower, and canola oils. This oily liquid is widely used in the chemical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries due to its excellent emollient, surfactant, and stabilizing properties. Oleic Acid 75% is a key raw material in manufacturing soaps, detergents, lubricants, and personal care products. Its amphiphilic nature makes it an effective emulsifier and penetration enhancer.
Petroleum Jelly
Petroleum Jelly is a semi-solid mixture of hydrocarbons, originally derived from petroleum refining. It is odorless, colorless (or slightly yellow), and known for its moisturizing, protective, and lubricating properties. Widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and industrial applications, Petroleum Jelly forms a barrier on the skin that locks in moisture and protects against irritants. The 175kg packaging is typical for bulk industrial or large-scale cosmetic use.
