Waxelene is a natural alternative to petroleum jelly, meaning it’s less harsh on your skin. Chemicals and other ingredients in petroleum jelly are known to be comedogenic, block pores, and can induce acne and have different impacts. Created as a part of the crude oil refinement process, petroleum jelly is not a sustainable resource and requires industry that has massive environmental impacts.
We use natural beeswax as the base of Waxelene Multi-Purpose Ointment to lock in the moisture provided by soy oil and the soothing effects of rosemary.
The aerated texture of Waxelene means your skin can still breathe and the natural plant-based ingredients work to nourish sore skin alongside the waterproof protection of whipped beeswax. Plus, the ingredients of beeswax and rosemary give Waxelene a subtle, natural scent. (Try our Calming Ointment if you’d like to add additional aromatherapy benefits of lavender.)
