Hexanetriol beeswax is used in cosmetic formulations. Hexanetriol beeswax is the ester of fatty acids derived from beeswax with hexanetriol. The ester acts as a surfactant, as a moisturizer (the substance also retains the skin's moisture) and as an emollient (makes the skin supple and smoothes it).
