Skep Beehive Candle

Description

Wonderful 100%, yes 100% beeswax candle.

This candle comes in a natural beeswax colour, where the wax has simply been filtered, and a beeswax aroma, the same smell I get when I open a hive.

Here are some interesting facts about natural beeswax:

1. Beeswax is a natural wax produced by honeybees in the form of scales from the glands on the underside of their abdomens.
2. Beeswax is used by bees to build honeycomb cells where they store honey and raise their young.
3. Beeswax is an important ingredient in many natural beauty and skincare products, including my own (naturally),  due to its moisturizing and protective properties.
4. Beeswax has a high melting point hence its great suitability for candles.
5. Beeswax is naturally antibacterial, which makes it a great ingredient in natural cleaning products.
