A light vegetable wax that helps strengthen cosmetic formulations, adjust their consistency and create a pleasant, smooth product. It is ideal for lip balms, ointments, solid deodorants, cosmetic sticks and natural candles.
Jojoba wax is a practical ingredient for anyone who wants to make solid or thicker cosmetic products without using beeswax. It gives the formulation structure, helps maintain its shape and allows you to adjust the softness or hardness of the finished product.
You will appreciate it especially when making balms and cosmetic sticks that need to remain firm in their packaging but should apply pleasantly when in contact with the skin. Thanks to its light colour, it does not significantly affect the appearance of the finished product and combines easily with vegetable oils, butters and other waxes.
It helps you create a product that is not too soft, does not melt easily and holds its desired shape better. In balms and sticks, it supports a smooth texture and pleasant glide over the skin.
It is a purely plant-based and vegan alternative to beeswax. It is therefore also suitable for formulations intended for customers who prefer cosmetics without animal-derived ingredients.

Jojoba wax can be used in lip balms, solid deodorants, body and face sticks, ointments, anhydrous balms, creams, emulsions and natural candles. It thickens mixtures of oils and butters, helps create a firm structure and supports pleasant application.
Add jojoba wax to the oil phase together with vegetable oils, butters or other waxes. Heat the mixture in a water bath until all solid ingredients have completely melted. Then mix thoroughly, add any heat-sensitive ingredients and pour into prepared containers or moulds.
Adjust the amount of wax to the desired consistency. A higher proportion will create a harder product, while a lower proportion will provide a softer and more spreadable balm. Before preparing a larger quantity, we recommend making a small test sample and assessing the final hardness only after it has cooled completely.
When developing a balm, start with a small test batch. If the product is too soft, reheat it and add a small amount of jojoba wax. If it is too hard, adjust the consistency by adding vegetable oil.
