White beeswax pastilles
Choose a Variant

White Beeswax can easily be used in a wide variety of natural bath and body products as well as candle making. Packaged in pastille form for easy handling and measuring, this pure beeswax has a reduced odor when compared to Yellow Beeswax due to a filtration process that removes the color. White Beeswax can be dyed to achieve vibrant colors in a variety of products. 

Beeswax is ideal for detailed embeds, pillar candles, and wax melts. It can also be a key ingredient in balms, salves, butters, bars, and more personal care products!

Candle Maker's Notes:
Beeswax can be very difficult to wick. When, where, and how it was obtained all factor into how it will perform in candles. With so many variables, it's hard to predict which wick size to use. For this reason, it will take a bit more testing to find the best one for your candles. We generally recommend the ECO series for beeswax.

Love this for botanical products

I love this beeswax. I use it for balms, salves, and lotion bars. It will even pick up a little blue color when I mix it with lavender infused oil.

Good wax

Made some wax melts with this wax, it worked very well, the liquid dye I use mixed well in it, wax itself doesn't have much of a smell. Seems to be a good texture. Will order again!

Different texture

I ordered my second bag and this one has more of a granulated texture. My first bag mixed it with 464 and I loved it but I haven’t used this one get, not sure if it will work well like the first bag.

Great quality

I don't agree with the reviews saying they smell bad - they have the faint smell of honey along with the characteristic scent of wax. The honey scent is obviously not as strong as ones in unrefined beeswax, but it's not unpleasant all the same. Melts really well and I love that they come in pastilles.

Bad smell

The bees wax smells like stinky feet. This batch left cracks in my candles. Even after using a heat gun. I mix the bees with soy
