So, what is helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed cera (wax)?
Helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed cera is a plant-based wax derived from sunflower seeds. It is used as a natural emollient and thickening agent in cosmetics, skincare, and hair care products due to its high melting point and smooth texture. The wax forms a protective barrier on the skin, helping to retain moisture and soothe dryness. It also provides a shiny finish and conditioning benefits to hair products. Sunflower seed wax is a vegan alternative to beeswax and a sustainable ingredient choice.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
