In cosmetics, it is primarily used in lipsticks, eye makeup, foundations, nail products, some skincare products, sunscreens, perfumes, and hair care. 

INCI Name– Microcrystalline wax

Purity of the Ingredients- 99%

Country of Origin- India

BENEFITS AND USES-

• It is used to improve the texture and consistency of a product, making it thicker/soft and more easily spreadable. It will give your DIY formulation a brilliant sensory feel.
• It helps in the emulsification of oils. Hence, you can add multiple oils to your formulation and get the benefits of multiple oils without sacrificing texture or spreadability.
• Improving a product’s spreadability can aid in delivering important elements uniformly throughout the skin.
• It also contributes to the sturdiness of stick compositions, such as stick blush or deodorant.
• Our microcrystalline wax is a more flexible wax, which makes it ideal for thick or semi-solid items that must spread uniformly without breaking.

HOW IT WORKS-

• It works by using its fine crystal size to bind solvents or oils together.
• It also creates a protective layer that prevents the sweating-out of the compositions.  

CONCENTRATION AND SOLUBILITY-

• It is recommended that it should be used at a concentration of 5-25%.
• It is insoluble in water but is soluble in oils.

HOW TO USE- 

• Heat the water and oil phases of your formulation separately.
• Add our microcrystalline wax to the heated oil phase.
• Blend both the phases together using a mini-mixer until a smooth mixture is not obtained.
