Paraffin Wax

Description

Paraffin wax is a colorless, odorless, and soft solid petroleum byproduct primarily used in skincare, physical therapy, and various consumer goods. Its key benefits include deep moisturization by locking in hydration, and soothing heat therapy to improve circulation, ease muscle tension, and relieve joint stiffness.

USES/BENEFITS

Deep Hydration: Because it is an occlusive agent, melted paraffin forms a physical barrier that prevents water loss, locking in moisture and oils. It is highly effective for dry, cracked skin on the hands, heels, and cuticles. 

Exfoliation and Softening: The warmth of the wax opens pores to release dirt, while the peeling action removes dead skin cells, leaving the skin supple and even-toned.

Dry Skin Relief: The intense moisturizing barrier helps soothe chronic dry skin conditions, including eczema and psoriasis

Heat Therapy: Melted paraffin retains heat and releases it slowly. Dipping sore areas (like hands or feet) into the warm wax increases blood flow and delivers oxygen and nutrients to tissues. 

Pain Relief: The soothing warmth helps alleviate discomfort, swelling, and stiffness from ailments such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, and muscle strains. 

Occupational and Physical Therapy: Therapists often use paraffin baths for burn survivors and patients with conditions like trigger finger to reduce pain, mobilize soft tissue, and improve joint range of motion.

Candle-Making: It is the standard wax used to create candles due to its ability to hold color and scent well
