Citric acid is a natural substance obtained from fruits and has various applications in industrial sectors. Multiceras has implemented this substance since 2016 to extract candelilla wax for skin care products. This natural organic acid is the ideal substance for beauty products because it is safe, beneficial for the skin, and environmentally friendly, benefiting both the purity of the wax and the well-being of the candelilla harvesters.

While it is not present in the final wax or skin care products, its application in the extraction process significantly contributes to the quality and purity of the wax used in our formulations. Many consumers are increasingly interested in natural, ecological, and skin-friendly ingredients, which are highly recognized by the medical sector.
