During Brazil\u2019s dry season, this palm, which also goes by the name \u201cThe Tree of Life,\u201d protects itself against moisture loss by secreting a coating on both sides of its leaves. This coating is called Carnauba Wax. It is considered the \u201cQueen of Waxes\u201d, one of the hardest natural waxes on the market today.<\/p>\n<p>Because Carnauba wax is a vegetable wax it is a great substitute for Beeswax in making vegan DIY skincare products such as balms, creams or salves.<\/p>\n<p>It comes in small flakes in a craft resealable bag which makes it easy to measure an exact amount you need and reseal the bag. It is yellow\/light brown in color and has a slightly sweet earthy smell.<\/p>\n<p>If you are using carnauba wax in your recipe in place of beeswax please note that it must be heated to a higher temperature than beeswax in order to melt, it has a melting point of 179.6 degrees Fahrenheit as opposed to 144 degrees. You can also use half the amount of Carnauba Wax in your recipe that calls for beeswax.<\/p>\n<p>Net Weight: 8 oz.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carnauba wax is a vegan vegetable wax.
