Old beeswax

[Tricky]

Does anyone know if old beeswax would be safe to use in lip balm making or lotion making?

 

[Poly Hive]

With the proviso the colour might adversely affect the look of the end product and provided the wax is clean, and not full of propolis it should be good to go.

old beeswax

'Old' as in?

Been around several years as blocks, or as in wax from old brooded frames, or melted super wax?

All could be OK, but the favoured for lip blm is cappings wax, 'old' or 'new'.

Never done lip balm, but it makes excellent polish. Melted and mixed with Turpintine. (Don't mix over an open flame)
