The honeybees produce this wax in order to build their honey comb or to repair it. beewax generally comes in colours like yellow, white, off-white, orange, brown or even red; depending upon the species of bees, location of beehive (whether in urban or rural area), and the age of honeycomb. Bee wax is known for its antibacterial and moisturizing effects. Extraction of bee wax from a honeycomb is a very lengthy process, but you can also order it online from well-known shopping sites. I had a honeycomb\/beehive in my gallery which I used to extract bee wax, which I used further to make a lip balm.
