Cera Bellina is a derivative of natural beeswax where the free fatty acids have been converted to polyglycerol esters, therefore increasing the hydrophilicity of the molecule. Elimination of these fatty acids improves stability, oil gelling, and increases overall consistency of a formula.

Cera Bellina is similar to beeswax with improved oil gelling properties. It suppresses oil syneresis and inhibits crystallization in formulation. Uses include dispersions, anhydrous systems, colour cosmetics and skin care. Usage levels for improvements as low as 2%.
Melting Point: 145-163F
I love it I used it for lip balms.
Used 2% (from beeswax volume) in lip balm. It gave the balm a slippy glide and fully distributed oils better.
