Review on 100% Pure White BEESWAX Pellets - 1 Lb Bag by Brian Cheney

This is my first purchase of Beeswax for making my own bath and body products. I was skeptical of buying beeswax because of the reviews for both yellow and white beeswax saying the smell overpowers the fragrance in the finished product. I have used other waxes, but I finally decided to take the plunge and try beeswax for my body butter shower scrub bars. It did have a smoky scent when I opened the bag which I have read is because of the process to cultivate the wax (this may be the wrong term to use, I am by no means an expert.) However once a smaller amount was out of the bag and I was measuring out my other ingredients, the smell diminished significantly. The beeswax melted quickly and evenly (I use the double boiler method, so I am not sure how well these work in the microwave.) The finished product was indeed white and I could no longer smell the smoky scent. I did add a fragrance oil, but it is a very light scent so it didnt just mask the smoky smell, the smell was truly gone. It set up very quickly and my bars are solid, just how I wanted them. The beeswax was very easy to use and virtually foolproof as I am a beginner at DIY body products. I included a picture of my first product made with beeswax. I will definitely repurchase in the future.
