Turns out sunflower wax is a bit of a game changer

This wax is super hard, odorless, quite tricky to work with. Requires high temperature to melt so when I used it in soap making as substitute of beeswax I had to keep oils very hot to keep wax melted and in result my soap erupted out of mold. Learning experience! Not so recommended for soap making.
Nice and hard easy to use
I used this as a combination with beeswax for my moisturising bars for the first time. Turned out well yay!!! Looking forward to making the second batch with it.
