Jeanne Rose has an article about using floral waxes in cosmetics on her site: http://www.jeannerose.net/articles/essential_flower_waxes.html Here is a link to: Final report of the safety assessment of (including other things) Acacia Farnesiana Flower Wax: http://cat.inist.fr/?aModele=afficheN & cpsidt=17193843 Some very high end lines that are coming out are using flower waxes - a few examples: This cream contains Chamomile Wax & Rose Wax http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P42592 And this cream from Fresh contains Helichrysum Wax: http://www.amazon.com/Fresh-FRESH-Rice-Face-Cream/dp/B00022UB6E This one contains Rose Wax and Cassie (Acacia) and Narcissus Wax http://www.dermstore.com/product_Aromessence%99+Baume+de+Nuit+-+Ang%E9li que+Night+Balm_5668.htm If you want to get a more detailed idea of each individual wax and the properties, I suggest looking up the concretes. You might find more info that way, as the wax is the waxy part of the concrete left behind after the concrete has been washed and all the liquid stuff went off to become the absolute. *Smile* Chris (list mom) Pre-Buy - Floral Waxes - 9 Varieties Decyl Polyglucose - Make Bubbles For The Holidays Special Pricing On All Items Through October 30th Only! http://www.alittleolfactory.com/prebuys.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
