Sunflower Wax?

[KristaMarie]

I had no idea such a thing existed until five minutes ago. I'm running low on candelilla wax and may consider getting sunflower instead.

Does anyone have experience working with it? What did you think? I'd be using it in lotion bars and lip balm.

Thanks in advance!

It does not stiffen as well as candelilla, but I do like it my lip balms as an additional wax. I add it in with beeswax and candelilla

I have tried it as a wax replacement and it did not work for my formulations, but is very nice in combination
