Skin health: Beeswax and your skin

www.grampagilmans.com
Beeswax is a natural wax secreted by wax glands from the abdomen of young worker bees. 

Beeswax is a natural emulsifier that infuses skin creams with the delicate rich scent of honey while sealing in moisture. It covers skin with a light, protective layer that allows the skin to breath. 

Added to skin creams, beeswax creates the bridge between oil and water allowing the two to mix flawlessly. 

Not only does beeswax allow oil and water to mix, it adds healing, soothing and deep moisturizing properties to skin creams.

Beeswax is known to;
  • lock in moisture, 
  • foster cells ***(Cell signalling is part of a complex system of communication that governs basic cellular activities and coordinates cell actions. The ability of cells to perceive and correctly respond to their micro-environment is the basis of development, tissue repair, and immunity as well as normal tissue homeostasis)***
  • protect skin from damaging environmental factors. 

Beeswax effectively softens skin and creates a long-lasting protective coating against the elements. 

Beeswax's properties and wound healing;
  • anti-inflammatory, 
  • antibacterial,
  • anti-allergenic
  • germicidal 
  • antioxidant 

properties make it beneficial for wound healing. It is reported that beeswax contains some vitamin A, which is necessary for normal cell development.

BENEFITS for your lips...

forum.chip.co.id

beeswax forms a protective seal over your lips, 
it helps lock in moisture, which helps soften lips; 
it also creates a pleasing sheen.
Because beeswax is biologically active even after processing, it
contains skin-friendly antioxidants and even has some anti-bacterial properties.


Products containing salicylic acid, a skin irritant, may foster lip balm addiction; beeswax, on the other hand, contains no skin irritants. 

Beeswax Soothes and Heals The Skin....
Beeswax is a natural anti-inflammatory. 
It heals and minimizes eruptions, acne, redness and minor rashes. 
The anti-bacterial and anti-microbial elements prevent infections from developing while healing existing discomforts.

***On the downside, beeswax lip balms tend to cost more than other lip care options.***

USES....
Face and body creams contain both water and oil elements. Oil and water will not mix willingly, but with an emulsifier they blend together.
The emulsifier breaks the oil and the water into tiny droplets that fuse to create creamy face and body creams. Beeswax provides the necessary emulsifying elements to create a skin cream without synthetic chemicals, while infusing the cream
with natural healing and deep moisturizing properties.
