Nature’s hardest wax for shine, structure, and protection.
Carnauba Wax Yellow T1 is a premium natural wax derived from the leaves of the Brazilian palm tree (Copernicia prunifera). Known as the “Queen of Waxes,” it is one of the hardest natural waxes available, prized for its high melting point, glossy finish, and exceptional durability.
Its ability to provide structure, shine, and protective film-forming properties makes it essential in a wide range of products — from skincare and lip care to polishes and coatings.
