Our beeswax is all pure, there is no additives or coloring. All the beeswax thatwe sell comes direction from privately owned hives and all the farmers keep exceptional standards in collection and and storage . They don't treat their bees with any type of pesticides or chemicals. Which means you can use this for cosmetics too. Most beekeepers use pesticides to kill the mites, They DON'T! This beeswax is all organic and natural. The beeswax that we are selling is from honey cappings, and still has a sweet honey smell to it.
