Instructions

Melt beeswax gently using a double boiler to prevent overheating and degradation.
Once fully melted, it can be blended with oils, resins, or other ingredients for use in cosmetics, candles, polishes, food coatings, or industrial applications.
Pour into molds and allow to cool and solidify at room temperature.
Avoid direct heat or open flames, as hot wax can cause burns and is flammable at high temperatures.
Use caution when handling molten wax, wear heat-resistant protection if needed, and keep out of reach of children.
Store in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
