Carnauba Wax

Collected from a tropical Palm Tree, native to Brazil. A hard yellowish/brown wax-like substance in it's pure form is obtained from the leaves of the palm, which after been dried is then beaten to loosen the wax. Further processes of refinement and bleaching allows the final wax product to be compatible with all vegetable, animal and mineral waxes. Carnauba wax can be used in cosmetics, especially lipsticks to give hardness and shine.
