Introducing The Ingredients Store's Rice Bran Wax—a natural, vegetable-based wax derived from the extraction of rice bran oil. This light-yellow wax is available in pellet form with a high melting point, making it ideal for enhancing the strength and thickness of formulations. A favorite among formulators, it provides a glossy finish and serves as a powerful emulsion thickener, gelling agent, and antioxidant, especially in skin and hair creams. Rice Bran Wax is a sustainable, budget-friendly alternative to Carnauba and Candelilla Wax, commonly used in lip and sun care products. With a melting point near 80°C and a distinct, brittle hardness, it’s often chosen as a coating agent similar to Carnauba wax.

Renowned for its superior oil-binding capabilities, Rice Bran Wax is frequently used as a thickener, binding agent, and gelling agent in various formulations.
