Beeswax is the oldest and purest wax in the world. There are no artificial ingredients. Beeswax has been used in hundreds of products, including: candles, cosmetics, soap, potpourri, adhesives, lubricants, fly paper, furniture polish, and paint removers. It also has many uses, like: Easter Egg decorating, sculpting, lubricating of thread and nails, waxing bowstrings, coating on waffle irons, and many, many other craft uses. The melting point of beeswax is 142 degrees. Care of beeswax products is very simple: occasionally buff with a soft cloth or warm with a blow dryer to return original luster and honey scent, insuring many years of enjoyment.
