Tuberose Wax: The Exquisite Natural Emollient and Fragrance Enhancer
Elevate your cosmetic creations with our luxurious Tuberose Wax, a premium ingredient sourced from Germany. This solid wax, ranging in color from orange-brown to greenish, offers a unique nutty, fruity, yet light floral scent. As a 100% natural organic product, Tuberose Wax is celebrated for its rich emollient properties and its ability to act as a natural fragrance fixative, enriching formulations with its subtle aroma and superior texture.
Description and Key Features
Tuberose Wax (INCI: Polianthes tuberosa flower wax) is a captivating botanical wax extracted from the exquisite tuberose flower. Unlike essential oils, the wax captures a broader spectrum of the flower's aromatic compounds, offering a softer, more nuanced fragrance. Its melting point of 50°C makes it versatile for a variety of cosmetic applications.
Key features and benefits:
- Exceptional Emollient: Provides profound conditioning and softening to the skin, creating a smooth and luxurious feel. It forms a protective barrier, locking in moisture and preventing transepidermal water loss.
- Natural Fragrance Fixative: Beyond its own beautiful scent, Tuberose Wax acts as a natural fixative, helping to prolong the longevity and enhance the richness of other fragrances in your formulations. Its unique aroma profile — nutty with fruity and light floral notes — adds a sophisticated touch.
- 100% Natural & Organic: Sourced from natural, organic processes, ensuring a high-quality, pure ingredient for clean beauty formulations.
- Versatile Solubility: Easily disperses in both carrier oils and essential oils, allowing for seamless integration into oil-based formulations.
- Texture Enhancer: Contributes to the stability and texture of emulsions, creams, and balms, providing a desirable consistency and improved spreadability.
- Skin Conditioning: Ideal for dry, mature, or sensitive skin, offering soothing and protective benefits.

Instructions for Preparation:
- Sanitize: Thoroughly sanitize all your equipment (beakers, stirring rods, balm containers) with isopropyl alcohol and allow them to air dry completely.
- Melt Phase A: In a heat-safe beaker, combine Jojoba Oil, Shea Butter, and Tuberose Wax. Place the beaker in a double boiler (bain-marie) over low to medium heat. Gently heat until all ingredients are completely melted and clear. Stir occasionally to facilitate even melting.
- Cool Slightly: Remove the beaker from the heat. Allow the mixture to cool slightly, but ensure it remains in liquid form.
- Add Phase B (if using): If you are adding an essential oil blend for additional fragrance, add Vitamin E Oil and your chosen Essential Oil Blend now. Stir gently but thoroughly to ensure even dispersion of the essential oils.
- Pour into Containers: Carefully pour the liquid balm mixture into your sanitized balm jars or tins.
- Cool and Solidify: Allow the balms to cool completely at room temperature until they are fully solidified. For faster solidification, you can place them in the refrigerator, but avoid placing them directly in the freezer.
- Label: Once solid, cap the containers and label your luxurious Tuberose Solid Perfume Balm.
Recommendations for Application and Use:
- Tuberose Wax Dosage: The 10% concentration of Tuberose Wax in this recipe provides excellent firmness and stability for a solid perfume balm, while contributing its unique aromatic profile. For other cosmetic waxes, the concentration can go up to 5%, as per the general guidelines.
- Melting Point: Tuberose Wax melts at 50°C, so ensure your oil phase reaches this temperature for complete integration.
- Fragrance Profile: Tuberose Wax has a lovely natural scent (nutty, fruity, light floral). You can use it as the sole fragrance or enhance it with complementary essential oils like citrus, rose, or sandalwood.
- Storage: Store the solid perfume balm in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent melting and preserve its scent and texture.
- Application: To use, simply warm a small amount of the balm on your fingertips and apply to pulse points (wrists, neck, behind ears) for a subtle, long-lasting fragrance.
- Patch Test: Always perform a patch test on a small area of skin before widespread use, especially if you have sensitive skin or are new to an ingredient.
