Rice Bran Wax is a plant-derived cosmetic wax used to add structure, firmness, and texture to anhydrous and emulsified formulations. It is commonly used in balms, sticks, creams, and other products where a harder wax with a clean, dry finish is useful. This ingredient is supplied as a solid material in the form of pastilles, pellets, or spheres and has a relatively high melting point compared with many softer plant waxes. It is not water soluble and is intended as a raw material for cosmetic and personal care formulation.
♡ Why we love it: It gives makers a dependable plant-derived structuring wax that works across a wide range of textures. It is a practical ingredient to keep on hand when building richer balms, solid products, and more structured emulsions.
