Description and Directions

The label says to use Waxelene for: skin protecting and moisturizing, chafing prevention, removing makeup, many other household needs. 

Here are a few ideas of what you could use Waxelene for

  • Lip balm - put it over your lipstick for added hydration and shine or put it on before bed to keep chapped lips at bay.
  • Lip Exfoliator - put it on your lips and softly brush with a toothbrush to exfoliate.
  • Eye makeup remover - A little on a Q-tip works like a charm.
  • Dry feet relief - put on before bed and put socks on to seal in the moisture. You'll be amazed in the morning.
  • Makeup base - mix with a little powder blush for creamy cheek and lip color.
  • Exfoliator - Mix it with salts or sugar to make a powerful scrub perfect for an at-home pedicure.
  • Self-tanning lotion barrier - Put a little bit on areas such as fingers, nails, palms and areas that you don't want to get color.
  • Apply a little on your little one's cheeks before going out in the snow to prevent them from getting chapped from the cold and wind.
Waxelene has only four ingredients, two of which are organic. It currently comes in two sizes: 2 ounces, currently priced at $6.99 and 9 ounces, priced at $15.99. The product is made in California and is packaged in glass bottles.
