INCI: Helianthus Annuus Seed Wax (organic)

Helianthus Annuus Seed Wax is a light-colored, 100% natural sunflower seed wax, produced as a byproduct of edible oil extraction from non-GMO seeds. This wax offers excellent oil-binding capacity and provides a balanced softness and hardness, making it ideal for stable formulations with an elegant skin feel.

When used in stick preparations, it delivers long-lasting shine and enhances product stability. It improves viscosity in oleogels, pigmented pastes, and water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions without crystallizing like carnauba wax. In oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions, it stabilizes the oil phase, enhancing consistency and lubrication.

This versatile, vegan wax is suitable for decorative cosmetics, makeup, and hair styling products. It is also Ecocert-approved, Kosher, and Halal-compliant.

Key Benefits:

• Stable Formulations: Ideal for stick products, enhances viscosity, stability, and shine.
• Texture Enhancer: Provides an elegant, smooth skin feel.
• Oil-Binding: High oil-binding capacity for stable, long-lasting products.
• Natural & Vegan: 100% natural, Ecocert-approved, and compliant with Kosher and Halal standards.

This wax is perfect for eco-conscious cosmetic formulations, ensuring stability, texture, and shine.
