Description:
Orange Wax is 100% natural; it is a by-product of the food industry that is extracted from the peels using mechanical presses. It is a very thick liquid that is deep orange in color.
Formulators will find natural Orange Wax to be an excellent emollient, as well as containing phytosterols. These phytosterols are excellent co-emulsifiers which aid in stabilizing emulsions. Orange wax is also reputed to possess anti-microbial properties as well.
Orange Wax is becoming a popular ingredient in leading lotions and creams, all while adding a beautiful orange citrus fragrance that is very similar in note to orange essential oil. Caution: If too much orange wax is added to any formulation it may stain the skin. Orange wax has photo-toxic properties and as such sunlight should be avoided immediately after use or sunblocks should be used.

I started using this in my lipbalms and it smelled fantastic mixed with benzoin and ginger. Cant wait to try formulating an all natural furniture polish with this.

This product says that it is a wax, but it looks more like syrup.
