For adults, Polyglyceryl-3 Beeswax is usually safe when put on the skin. Most safety checks show low concern for cancer, allergies, or effects on having children. The main note is that it might irritate skin, eyes, or breathing in some people.
Before using a new product with this ingredient, do a small patch test on your inner forearm and wait 24–48 hours. If you have sensitive skin, eczema, or known bee/ingredient allergies, try a small amount first or choose a simpler product. Avoid getting products in the eyes. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding and worried, check with your healthcare provider.
Stop use and rinse well if you get redness, itching, swelling, stinging, or any trouble breathing. A cosmetic industry review (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) has noted possible skin, eye, or lung irritation though the evidence is limited; keep an eye out for irritation and watch for reactions caused by other ingredients in the product.
