Cosmetic Grade Candelilla Wax-CAS 8006-44-8
Cosmetic Grade Candelilla Wax is a high-purity natural flexible plant wax extracted from candelilla plants and refined by multi-stage purification and deodorization technology.
It is a classic flexible adjusting wax in the cosmetic industry, famous for high toughness, excellent ductility and mild thickening performance. Compared with Carnauba Wax and Beeswax, it has unique anti-cracking and flexible shaping advantages, which can effectively solve the problems of brittle fracture, hard texture and poor low-temperature toughness of solid cosmetics.
It can moderately adjust oil-phase viscosity, optimize product delicate texture, and stabilize emulsion system rheological properties. It forms soft and breathable protective film on skin and lips, with excellent moisturizing and soothing effects.
It provides natural and non-stiff shaping force for hair styling products. With pure natural source, mild and safe properties and ultra-wide formula compatibility, it is the best matching raw material for hard wax compounding and the preferred core material for soft and high-tough cosmetic molding systems.
Key Benefits
• High Toughness & Anti-Cracking Core Advantage: Outstanding flexibility and ductility, effectively improve the brittleness of solid cosmetics, prevent lipstick and molding products from breaking and cracking at low temperature, optimize product yield and appearance quality.
• Mild Thickening & Delicate Texture: Moderate oil-phase thickening capacity, no hard and stiff texture, endow products with smooth and delicate touch, balance fluidity and molding stability of emulsions.
• Perfect Compounding Matching Performance: The best partner for Carnauba Wax and Beeswax, balances the hardness and flexibility of wax system, avoids single hard wax brittleness and single soft wax soft collapse.
• Soft Natural Shaping Effect: Provide moderate and flexible shaping force for hair styling products, create fluffy and natural hairstyle, no stiff texture, long-lasting and non-caking.
• Breathable Moisturizing & Skin Protection: Form flexible breathable protective film on skin and lips, lock moisture, relieve dry chapped lips and rough skin, mild and non-occlusive.
• Natural Safe & Wide Compatibility: Pure plant refined, odorless and impurity-free, non-irritating and non-sensitizing, food-contact safe grade, suitable for lip and sensitive skin cosmetic formulas.
Applications
• Lip Cosmetic Series: Core anti-cracking and texture adjusting raw material for lipstick, lip balm and tinted lip products, improve product toughness, prevent breaking and chapping, optimize smooth application feeling.
• Soft Hair Styling Products: Key raw material for natural fluffy hair wax, hair pomade and light styling cream, provide flexible shaping force, create non-stiff and long-lasting hairstyle.
• High-Stability Emulsion Formulas: Applied in moisturizing cream, nourishing ointment and barrier repair cream, moderately thicken and stabilize texture, prevent oil precipitation and system delamination.
• Compound Wax Shaping System: Perfectly compound with Carnauba Wax and Beeswax to balance product hardness, toughness and gloss, widely used in high-grade solid molding cosmetics.
• Mild Skin Care Ointments: Used in dry skin repair ointment and lip moisturizing base, form flexible protective film to relieve dry and chapped discomfort.
• Low-Temperature Resistant Molding Products: Improve the low-temperature toughness of solid cosmetics, avoid cracking and breaking in cold environment, ensure stable product quality in four seasons.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
• Q1: What is the MOQ of Cosmetic Grade Candelilla Wax?
A1: The standard MOQ is 25KG, and sample orders are supported for formula testing and efficacy trial production.
• Q2: What certification documents can be provided?
A2: Complete COA, MSDS, heavy metal and microbial test reports and full set of customs clearance documents are available to support export declaration and cosmetic product filing.
• Q3: What is the recommended dosage in cosmetic formulas?
A3: Lipstick & lip balm: 2%–6%; Hair styling products: 1.5%–4%; Moisturizing cream & ointment: 1%–3%; Compound wax molding system: 3%–8%; Low-temperature anti-cracking formulas: 4%–9%, adjustable according to product toughness and texture requirements.
• Q4: What is the difference between Candelilla Wax and Carnauba Wax?
A4: Carnauba Wax is high-hardness and high-temperature resistant, mainly used for hardening and brightening; Candelilla Wax is high-toughness and flexible, mainly used for anti-cracking and soft texture adjustment. Carnauba Wax provides hardness support, while Candelilla Wax provides toughness ductility. The two are usually compounded to balance hardness, gloss and flexibility of products.
• Q5: Is Candelilla Wax safe for lip cosmetic formulas?
A5: Yes. It adopts pure natural plant purification process, deodorized and impurity-free, non-toxic and non-irritating, food-contact safe grade, fully compliant with domestic and international lip cosmetic safety standards, safe for long-term lip contact use.
• Q6: What are the formula matching notes?
A6: It is medium melting point wax material, recommended to heat and melt at 75-85℃ oil phase before adding; best compounded with Carnauba Wax and Beeswax to optimize texture; avoid excessive single addition to prevent product soft collapse.
• Q7: Do you support stable large-batch supply all year round?
A7: Stable raw material sources and standardized purification production lines ensure stable batch melting point, toughness and purity indicators, consistent product quality, sufficient inventory all year round, supporting long-term cooperative orders and customized formula matching services.
