In addition to candles, microcrystalline wax is also widely used in cosmetics and skin care products as an ingredient in creams, lipsticks and other products. Its good permeability and stability make it an important ingredient in the cosmetics industry, giving products a silky texture and long-lasting moisturizing effect.
However, although microcrystalline waxes themselves are generally considered not to be significantly harmful to human health, they may release harmful substances, such as volatile organic compounds, when burned, and prolonged exposure to these fumes may have health effects. Therefore, when using microcrystalline wax products, it is recommended to maintain good ventilation and avoid long-term exposure to the smoke generated by combustion.
In general, as a common material, microcrystalline wax has a wide range of applications in various fields. Understanding its characteristics and using it correctly can make us better enjoy the convenience and beauty brought by it.
