About

On an ingredient list it is written as Microcrystalline Wax. It is natural (petroleum-derived) fossil wax.

In the Formula

It is a structural material. It gives a stick its backbone and a balm its set, and it governs how the product holds its shape.

The Evidence

It is a listed cosmetic ingredient with an established function in the EU CosIng inventory. We hold no finished product study on it and do not imply one. We cite what the ingredient is assessed for, not what a finished product was claimed to do.

Honest Limits

Microcrystalline Wax does its job inside the formula. It is not an active, and nothing on this page should be read as a treatment claim.
