Cera Alba beskrivning

_Cera alba_ is the INCI (International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients) term for what is commonly known as beeswax. It is a natural wax produced by honeybees in the process of building their hives. Because of its emollient and occlusive nature, beeswax has been used since antiquity in treatments for a variety of skin ailments. Modern science backs up this usage, as beeswax is comprised of multiple fatty acids and fatty alcohols that restore skin, making it especially useful for those who have a damaged barrier. Beeswax is also a good source of flavonoids which provide antioxidant benefits. _Cera alba_ is most commonly used in skin protectant cosmetics, particularly in moisturizing balms and lip products. The independent Cosmetic Ingredient Review has ruled beeswax safe in its current usage in cosmetics. Note: while beeswax is a vegetarian ingredient, it is generally not considered vegan, as it is derived from an animal byproduct.
