A2 All-Purpose Rosin Wax Beans

The bead for e-commerce sets — ten colours, your bag artwork, and a slow 15–20 second set built for first-time users.

A2 is the bead we pack for online brands selling waxing sets, and for the people who buy them. It is a rosin-based all-purpose wax: it wraps the hair instead of snapping at it, sets slowly enough that a mistake can still be corrected, and runs in ten stock colours so a shop page does not look like every other shop page. Bags come from 100 g to 1 kg with your artwork on the dieline, and the same bag goes into a kit with a heater and sticks.

Product overview

What A2 is built around

01

All-purpose, from ankle to brow

A2 is a flexible wax rather than a brittle one. It wraps the hair and lifts in one piece from legs, arms, underarms and the bikini line, and the same bead can be worked thin enough for the upper lip and brows. No muslin strips, no powder, no second product for the face.

Thin films behave differently from thick ones. Lay A2 thin on the face and read the film before pulling.

02

Grips hair as short as 3 mm

The rosin base gives A2 its tack. Hair that has grown back to 3 mm — the point where most people reach for a razor again — is long enough for this bead to hold. That is the practical difference between a wax that works on a two-week regrowth and one that needs three.

Grip depends on hair length, growth direction and skin preparation. Clean, dry skin is part of the result.

03

15–20 seconds: time to fix a mistake

A2 is intentionally slow to set. Where a salon wax is ready in under ten seconds, this one gives fifteen to twenty — long enough for a first-time user to spread it evenly, check the direction and correct a patch before it hardens. That single property is why it is the bead we pack for DIY and e-commerce sets.

Room temperature moves the clock. In a cold room the film takes longer; warm the room, not the wax.

04

Rosin, shea and plant oils — no chemical remover

Hair comes out at the root because the wax grips it, not because a depilatory chemical dissolves it. A2 carries shea butter, hydrogenated coconut oil and mineral oil alongside the rosin, which keeps the film pliable and leaves the skin conditioned rather than tight. Regrowth is slower than shaving because the follicle is pulled, not cut.

A physical wax is not a treatment for ingrown hair or a substitute for aftercare. Follow the instructions on the bag.

05

EVA is what keeps it in one piece

Ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer is the reason a hard wax film stays pliable instead of going brittle and cracking. Without it the wax would set hard and shatter when lifted; with it, the film stretches slightly and comes away in a single sheet — the difference between a clean pull and a cleanup.

EVA content is part of the declared formula. Ask for the batch declaration if your market reviews ingredients.

Certified & tested

The paperwork behind the bead

Four documents buyers ask for before a first container: the US cosmetic filing, the GMPC and ISO 22716 certificates for the plant, and the safety data sheet for the material. Excerpts are shown here; full copies are sent with the quotation.

Ten colours, one base

The colour is the shelf story

A2 is sold by colour more than by specification. Pink and cream move as stock; blue, lavender, honey, green, black and chocolate turn a catalogue into a range. The base is the same in every shade, so a buyer can add colours without adding a second formula to approve.

Nine A2 bead colours side by side — pink, rose, coral, orange, sage, mint, lavender, blue and white, each with a swatch from the pile
Nine bead colours on one sheet, each swatch read from the pile — the page a buyer compares against.

The chart above is the fastest way to sell it: nine piles on one sheet, each with the colour read straight off the bead. A shop page can carry six of them, one instruction sheet covers all, and a customer who reacts badly to a shade has not necessarily reacted to a different wax.

Stock shades are pink and cream. The other eight are produced to order, with a minimum run per colour, and can be matched to a Pantone reference or a physical sample.

  • 10 stock colours — Pink, cream, honey, blue, lavender, green, black, chocolate and a metallic silver
  • One base formula — Only the colourant changes between shades
  • Bags from 100 g — Retail size to 1 kg salon refill, plus 25 kg bulk

Colour matching to a sample or Pantone is part of the ODM service. Ask for chips before committing a run.

Stock colours

Six of the ten, photographed

Pink and cream are the two we hold in stock; the rest are produced to order. Every shade below is the same base formula with a different colourant load.

The default retail colour and the one most often requested for face and intimate areas. Opaque enough to read coverage on skin.

A soft cream bead for buyers who want the wax to disappear on skin and on white couch roll. Pairs with the same base as pink.

The traditional honey gold, closest to what a salon customer expects a hard wax to look like. Reads warm in the pot.

Legs · arms · back
A2 Metallic silver hard wax beads
Metallic silverMetal finish

A deep metallic silver: the pigment runs through the bead rather than sitting on it, so it reads dark in the bag and bright where light hits the film. The finish we hold in stock; bright silver, gold and rose gold are produced to order.

Purple is the colour that makes a six-shade range look intentional. Same base, same set time, different shelf impact.

Whole body

Green tea, tea tree, black and chocolate are the remaining stock colours. All ten are produced from the same base; only the colourant and, where declared, the fragrance differ.

The declaration

What A2 is made of, with the ranges

This is the declared composition from the A2 ingredient sheet: rosin first as the thickener, then the ester and hydrogenated rosin that build the film, the waxes, the oil, and last the colour. The percentages are the declared ranges, wider than a single batch because the plant adjusts the rosin load to the season.

Rosin, ester, waxes and oil — the same eight lines in every colour Colourant system — 0.5–2% and the only line that changes between shades

Rosin is the point of A2

Rosin at 15–50% is the thickener: it is what gives the bead its tack and what keeps the price where it is. Two rosin derivatives follow it — hydrogenated rosin and glyceryl hydrogenated rosinate — which soften the pull and keep the film flexible instead of glassy.

Paraffin sits at 10–30% as the second adhesive, with ethylene/VA copolymer at 5–18% holding the sheet together so it lifts in one piece instead of cracking at the edge.

The comfort layer is small: 2–10% beeswax and 1–6% mineral oil. That is a deliberately lean formula — A2 is built to a price for volume channels, not loaded with skin oils.

Colour is 0.5–2% and sits on a separate line by design: the eight permitted pigments cover the ten stock shades, and a new colour is a pigment decision, not a new formula.

Ranges are the declared values on the A2 ingredient sheet. The approved declaration for the colour and batch you buy governs the label.

Salon vs PRO vs consumer

Three grades, one decision

The grades differ in the resin, and the resin is the first line of every declaration. A1 carries no rosin at all, the PRO line is built on glycerol esters of refined rosin, A2 builds on rosin. Everything else — tack, set time, scent, colour, channel — follows from that. Columns run from the highest price tier down: A1 and B1 first, then A2 PRO, then A2.

Figures are the declared ranges on the three ingredient sheets, not a formulation guide. Percentages sum per ingredient and overlap by design: a formula can carry two rosins and an ester at once. Ask for the declaration of the colour you are buying. Price index is a relative tier, not a quotation — A1 and B1 sit on the same tier, above A2 PRO, then A2.

Metal finishes

Gold, rose gold and gunmetal — matched, not guessed

A metallic bead is a colour project, not a different wax: the same A2 base, pigmented differently. Silver is the finish we hold in stock; gold, rose gold and gunmetal are produced to order, with a pressed chip approved before the run so the sheen in the bag is the sheen on the shelf.

Bag weights are net. Printed panels show both grams and ounces for US and EU retail.

Who buys A2

Four routes to the same bead

A2 is an entry-price rosin wax, which makes it a volume product. The same 1 kg bag goes to a consumer, a shop page, a distributor catalogue and a private-label line.

E-commerce brandsA colour range, one formula

Six to ten shades from one base, one instruction sheet, one compliance file. The fastest way to look like a range without developing one.

DistributorsAn entry tier

A rosin wax at a price that lets a catalogue open below the rosin-free lines, with packs from 100 g to 25 kg.

SalonsA backup and a retail line

Bought in 1 kg for the trolley, or in 100 g to sell to clients who want to maintain between appointments.

Private labelYour artwork on the bag

The bag platform is ready: send artwork against the 100 g or 500 g dieline and approve a printed proof before the run.

A2 is a rosin formula. Buyers who need a rosin-free claim should quote A1 or B1; A2 is the entry-price option, not the rosin-free one.

Where it is used

Everywhere a razor would go

A2 is a whole-body wax. The same bead covers large areas, small detail work and the intimate areas that make first-time users nervous.

Legs and armsLarge areas where a flexible film lifts in one sheet and a 1 kg bag goes a long way.
UnderarmsShort, coarse regrowth is where the 3 mm grip matters most.
Bikini lineA soft film that stays pliable where the skin is uneven and the hair is dense.
Face and upper lipWorked thin and cool; the slow set gives time to keep the edges clean.
BrowsSmall patches, applied with a wooden stick, pulled in the direction the brow is shaped.
Back and chestLarger panels where a slow-setting wax can be spread before it grabs.

Questions buyers ask

A2 frequently asked questions

Is A2 the same wax as A1?

No. A1 is a rosin-free formula with a 42–48 °C melting range and three shades. A2 is a rosin-based all-purpose wax with a 50–60 °C melting range, a slower 15–20 second set and ten shades. A2 is the entry-price bead for DIY and e-commerce; A1 is the salon and private-label line.

Why does A2 set more slowly than a salon wax?

Because it is built for people waxing themselves. Fifteen to twenty seconds gives a first-time user time to spread the wax evenly and correct a patch before it hardens. A salon can work faster with it, but the extra time is the point.

Does rosin mean it is harsh?

Rosin is a natural resin, not a chemical depilatory. A2 removes hair physically — the wax grips and lifts it — and carries shea butter and plant oils to keep the film pliable. Rosin is, however, a material some people prefer to avoid; if that is your market, quote A1 or B1 instead.

Which colours are in stock?

Pink and cream are held as stock. The other eight — chamomile blue, lavender, honey, green tea, tea tree, black, chocolate and metallic silver — are produced to order, with a minimum run per colour.

Can I have a metallic colour?

Yes. Metallic silver is the finish we currently hold; gold, rose gold and gunmetal are produced to order. A pressed chip is sent for approval before the run, because metallic pigments read differently in the bag and on skin.

What is the minimum order?

Stock bags can be ordered by the carton. A custom colour under the ODM programme starts at 2,000 kg. Private-label artwork runs on the 100 g and 500 g dielines.

Can A2 go into an e-commerce kit?

Yes. Bags are assembled into kits with a heater, applicator sticks and an instruction card, and the kit can carry your artwork and barcode. Kit configuration and pack weight are set per order.

What documents come with A2?

The safety data sheet, the Intertek GMPC and ISO 22716 certificates, the FDA cosmetic filing reference and the batch ingredient declaration. Ask for the set for the colour you are evaluating.
