Waxes & Structure
What this group includes
Waxes and structure ingredients help give products their shape, stability, and smooth application.
This group may include ingredients such as beeswax, candelilla wax, carnauba wax, and other plant- or mineral-derived waxes commonly used in cosmetics.
Why we use them
These ingredients help products apply evenly, maintain their form, and feel comfortable on the skin—without tugging, cracking, or dryness.
Why they’re considered safe
- Widely used in cosmetic and sensitive-skin formulations
- Evaluated for safety and skin compatibility
- Selected for balance between structure and comfort
Good to know
Waxes do not sit “on” the skin in a heavy way. In balanced formulations, they support smooth application and flexible wear.
The Lotus Standard
All waxes and structure ingredients are reviewed for safety, tolerance, and performance as part of the complete formula.
