Create Professional Skincare with Confidence and Simplicity

Stop worrying about your homemade lotions separating or feeling greasy. Polawax is the go-to, all-in-one emulsifier for both beginners and expert crafters because it is incredibly reliable and easy to use. As a “complete” emulsifying wax, it doesn’t require complex calculations or additional co-emulsifiers to create a stable, beautiful final product.

Simply melt it into your oils, combine with your water-based ingredients, and watch the magic happen as a perfect, creamy emulsion forms.

Why Polawax is the Professional’s Choice:

  • Creates Luxurious Textures: Naturally builds thickness and body, giving your lotions and creams a rich, elegant, and non-greasy feel without needing extra synthetic thickeners.
  • Provides Long-Lasting Hydration: Forms a unique liquid crystal structure that delivers “time-release” moisture, keeping skin feeling soft and hydrated for hours after application.
  • Incredibly Stable & Reliable: Produces highly stable emulsions that resist separating, even in warm climates or when stored over long periods. Your product remains safe, effective, and consistent.
  • Versatile & Easy to Use: The perfect all-in-one solution for a wide range of oil-in-water products. It’s tolerant of most skincare additives and works across a broad pH range.

Perfect For Creating:

  • Daily Moisturisers and Face Creams
  • Rich Body Lotions and Butters
  • Soothing After-Sun Creams
  • Silky Hair Conditioners and Detanglers
  • Creamy Deodorants

How to Use:

  1. Usage Rate: Use at 3% – 6% of your total formula weight. For thinner lotions, use a lower percentage (e.g., 3-4%). For thicker creams, use a higher percentage (e.g., 5-6%).
  2. Instructions: Add the Polawax pastilles to the oil phase of your formulation. Heat both your oil phase and water phase in separate containers to around 70-75°C.
  3. Once both phases reach the same temperature, pour the water phase into the oil phase and mix with a high-shear stick blender until the emulsion forms. Continue to stir gently as it cools and thickens.
