Foncepi is a specialized Brazilian manufacturer and exporter of carnauba wax, providing high-quality raw materials for the cosmetics industry since 1922. Manufacturers seeking consistent ingredients for lip liner formulations rely on our production expertise, derived from the Copernicia prunifera palm, to ensure the structural integrity and stability required for high-end cosmetic pencils.
The selection of the appropriate carnauba grade is critical for achieving the desired hardness and smooth application in lip liner formulations. Our team supports technical and procurement professionals by providing detailed specifications for our various wax types and forms, ensuring alignment with your production requirements. Contact our team to discuss your specific needs and request a quote for your next production batch.
Selecting the Right Wax Grade for Lip Liner Formulations
Achieving the ideal mechanical strength in a lip liner depends on the precise grade of carnauba wax utilized in the formula. At Foncepi, we offer Tipo 1 and Tipo 3 wax, each providing distinct characteristics in terms of color and purity. For cosmetic applications where aesthetic clarity and consistent performance are vital, understanding these variations allows formulators to fine-tune their product's hardness and melting points effectively.
When evaluating our grades for your manufacturing process, consider that the Gardner color index serves as a primary indicator of the wax's visual profile. Our Tipo 1 wax is noted for its lighter color, which is often preferred for formulations requiring color neutrality, while Tipo 3 offers a distinct profile suitable for a broader range of applications. Please reach out with your technical specifications to determine the best match for your project.
Processing and Granulometry for Cosmetic Integration
Lip liner manufacturing often requires specific physical forms to facilitate efficient blending and uniform incorporation into the product matrix. We provide carnauba wax in various presentations, including powder, which is essential for formulators who require rapid and consistent dispersion. Our powder is processed to meet strict granulometry standards, with options for 95% passage in 100 mesh or 200 mesh sieves, depending on your milling needs.
Choosing the correct particle size is a key step in optimizing your production cycle and ensuring the quality of the final cosmetic stick. Whether your process utilizes a high-shear mixer or a specialized melting tank, our team can provide the technical details regarding the physical characteristics of our powdered wax. We invite you to share your processing method so we can assist in identifying the most compatible presentation for your facility.
Ensuring Consistency in Raw Material Procurement
For manufacturers operating in competitive markets, the consistency of raw materials is non-negotiable. Foncepi’s production facilities in Piripiri, Piauí, and Coaçu, Ceará, maintain rigorous controls over the extraction and refining processes. This ensures that every shipment meets the established parameters for melting range, acidity, and saponification values, which are foundational for consistent cosmetic formulation outcomes.
We understand that procurement teams require reliable documentation to manage supply chains effectively. Upon inquiry, we provide the necessary technical data sheets and documentation to support your internal validation and quality assurance processes. By discussing your volume requirements and shipping preferences, we can streamline the procurement of your raw materials and ensure they arrive in the appropriate packaging, such as 25 kg bags or 500 kg big bags.
Technical Support for Cosmetic Manufacturers
Beyond supplying high-quality carnauba wax, Foncepi acts as a strategic partner for businesses looking to optimize their ingredient portfolio. We recognize the challenges faced by manufacturers in the cosmetic sector, including the need for documentation and adherence to specific regulatory standards.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Tipo 1 and Tipo 3 wax for cosmetic use?
The main difference is the Gardner color index, which indicates the color profile of the wax. Tipo 1 has a lower color range (3.50–5.50), making it ideal for formulations where color neutrality is required. Tipo 3 has a higher range (8.10–10.50), suitable for specific cosmetic applications.
Can Foncepi provide both 100 mesh and 200 mesh powder for my lip liner?
Yes, we provide powder in these two granulometry options, both with 95% passage in their respective sieve sizes. We recommend that you verify which particle size is most effective for your specific dispersion equipment and formula to ensure optimal incorporation during your production process.
How should I request the technical documentation or a COA for a specific lot?
Please contact our commercial team directly at carnaubawax@foncepi.com.br. When making your request, be sure to provide the specific wax type and product form you are interested in.
