This emulsifying wax is a versatile, cosmetic-grade ingredient used to bind oil and water together to create smooth, stable emulsions in lotions, creams, conditioners, scrubs, and other personal care formulations. It provides a powdery, soft, and silky skin feel that enhances the texture and glide of your finished products. Ideal for formulators seeking reliable performance and consistent results, this emulsifying wax NF is commonly used in both oil-in-water (O/W) and water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions. It’s a go-to choice for crafters making everything from lightweight lotions to thick, rich body butters. Lotions made with this wax tend to have a heavy, cream-like appearance and excellent spreadability. It helps stabilize emulsions, preventing oils and water from separating over time.

What Is Emulsifying Wax?

Emulsifying wax is a non-ionic emulsifier, meaning it carries no electrical charge—making it compatible with a wide variety of oils, butters, and active ingredients. The “NF” stands for National Formulary, indicating that the wax meets recognized standards for pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications.

This traditional blend of Cetearyl Alcohol and Polysorbate 60 offers an excellent balance of stability, consistency, and skin feel in emulsified products. It is a staple ingredient for anyone formulating skincare products at home or at scale.

Common Uses

This emulsifying wax for lotion and cream making is ideal for a wide range of water-and-oil-based applications, including:

  • Lotions – Create light to medium-weight moisturizers with a silky glide
  • Creams – Achieve thick, luxurious textures with long-lasting skin conditioning
  • Body Butters – Emulsify butters and oils into a rich, stable blend
  • Scrubs – Keep oil and exfoliants uniformly suspended in your formula
  • Hair Conditioners – Add consistency and smoothness to rinse-off and leave-in formulas
