Description
Copernicia Cerifera Wax is a carnauba wax obtained from the leaves of the Copernicia cerifera palm, known as the "king of waxes". In cosmetics, it is used as a natural thickener, emollient, and protective barrier. It forms a thin breathable film on the skin, helping to retain moisture and protect against external aggressors. Carnauba wax adds texture and stability to products, increasing their water resistance. It is used in lip balms, lipsticks, creams, hair care products, and also in decorative cosmetics.
