Do not be silly! It’s not that you are allergic to beeswax, but that kind of beeswax is what you wear!

May 31, 2023

A few days ago, Xiaobian heard a very ridiculous thing: said a big sister named Zhang, at the invitation of a friend to buy beeswax, but after the beeswax shop, others are busy trying to ask, ask what And Zhang Sister is just looking at the window. After the salesperson saw the situation, he immediately took out the beeswax jewelry in the window and prepared it for Zhang Dajie to try on.

Who knows that Zhang Dajie said: "No, these are very beautiful, but I can't wear it because my body is allergic to beeswax." She said that she would stretch her neck to other people, and it was all red dots. It is indeed a symptom of allergies. The owner of the beeswax shop heard: stupid! I have sold so many years of beeswax and have never heard of the fact that "being waxy will be allergic".

So, at the suggestion of the bee wax shop owner, Zhang Dajie took the beeswax necklace she had worn before. The boss smiled after seeing it, which is obviously the "second generation beeswax"! One more inquiries, this is what Zhang Dajie spent 300 yuan to buy when she went to travel last year. Finally, the owner of the beeswax shop explained to Zhang Dajie: "It is not allergic to you wearing beeswax, but who is wearing such beeswax!"

不是你戴蜜蜡会过敏,而是这样的蜜蜡谁戴都得出事

After listening to this funny and absurd story, Xiao Bian can't help but think of the previous online explosion: the husband and wife sold fake beeswax, and finally got the news of late lung cancer. In fact, similar incidents are by no means a case. You can find a lot of such news by simply searching the Internet. The culprit of all this is the fake beeswax filled with chemical agents.

These four kinds of "amber beeswax" can't be worn.

1, dyed amber

We can often see colorful, brightly colored amber beeswax on the court. It looks good at first glance, but a little friend who knows amber will feel unnatural when you look at it carefully, because such amber beeswax are basically dyed. . This is done by placing amber beeswax into the stain and passing the dye into amber by pressurization. During the wearing process, if these bright chemical dyes fall off and stain on the skin, it may cause allergies and even severe reactions such as shock!

Xiaobian teaches you to identify:

1. Observe whether the color is uniform, whether it is aggravated or accumulated in the crack by means of a microscope or a magnifying glass. If the color accumulates in the cracks or pits of the ornament, it is a stained amber.

2, use a cotton dipped in alcohol or hydrogen peroxide, gently wipe the surface, if the surface is dyed, the color will easily stick to the cotton.

2, plastic beeswax

Plastic is the most popular counterfeit product in the beeswax circle. It can be transformed into a colorful aristocratic beeswax and can also be a high imitation beeswax that cannot be recognized by the naked eye. Needless to say, the hazards of plastic beeswax, because you never know what kind of chemical is used in this string of plastics, and how much harm it has. But Xiaobian advises everyone not to burn! Because in case of damage to the nasal mucosa, it is very likely to cause respiratory disorders!

Xiaobian teaches you to identify:

Identification of plastic is very simple, using salt water identification. Because of the different densities of amber and plastic, amber will float up in 1:4 brine. In addition, the biggest feature of aristocratic beeswax is the bright colors. Therefore, if you encounter beeswax with too bright colors in the future, you must be extra careful, because 90% of them are fake.

3, the second generation of beeswax

The so-called second-generation beeswax amber is a second-generation beeswax made by mixing amber powder with fluorescent agents and other chemical materials. This kind of beeswax can neither be certified by the national inspection nor internationally recognized! Just Baidu knows that too much exposure to fluorescent agents is prone to fluid contamination and exchange. Once the skin is repelled, it will cause an allergic reaction, which may cause cancer!

Xiaobian teaches you to identify:

The difference between the second generation of pressed beeswax and natural beeswax is mainly in "flow patterns". As we all know, the "flow pattern" of natural beeswax is formed by the accumulation of layers of its own resin, so its texture trend is independent and natural, usually showing "cloud", which seems to have a feeling of agility. The second generation of beeswax is synthetic, so its flow pattern is relatively regular, and the traces of agitation can be clearly seen.

4, Ma Lisan

Ma Lisan, a professional chemical term called polyimine resin. Generally speaking, it is a kind of strong foam filling agent. In the industry, it specializes in sealing various kinds of gaps, and is mostly used in tunnels, coal rock layers and other places. Often used to pretend to be a raw stone, this kind of chemical, worn on people, is really extremely harmful.

Xiaobian teaches you to identify:

1, look at the price: the sale of Ma Li San is generally cheaper, the price is usually 2-5 yuan per gram. To know that the price of natural amber beeswax is as high as one thousand yuan per gram, so it is still the same sentence: expensive is not necessarily good, but cheap must not be good.

2, look at the color: amber rough with Ma Li scattered general color is gorgeous, meat color uniform, looks very "pure", and the inside of the amber stone can see a lot of impurities.

3. Alcohol test: Ma Li San is a chemical product that melts and sticks when it encounters alcohol. If there is no alcohol, the effect of putting a second pot on the top is the same. Natural beeswax does not melt or stick.

Amber also has these 3 common optimization methods.

In addition to fraud, there is still optimization in the amber beeswax market. However, compared with the odious fraud, the following optimization methods can still be accepted by people.

1, beeswax color

Baked color refers to the natural beeswax placed in a professional oven equipment to maintain a certain high temperature to accelerate the oxidation of the epidermis and make the color yellow. As we all know, the value of different colors of beeswax has a big gap, the value of old beeswax and new beeswax is different, and this is why people bake color. However, since the baking color does not change the nature of the beeswax itself, this optimization method is generally accepted.

2, amber pressed

The pressing is to discharge the bubbles and impurities in the beeswax by high temperature and high pressure, so that the beeswax amber becomes more clear. Many ambers such as Jinpo and Jinbao honey are pressed and processed in the market.

3, amber popcorn

The so-called amber burst is a series of treatments such as warm pressure to produce a sun-like inclusion in the gold. The "popcorn" optimization process is similar to "popcorn". The amber is placed in a gas-filled pressure furnace to heat and pressurize the bubbles inside the amber, and then quickly release the gas in the furnace, causing the air pressure to drop rapidly, causing amber bubbles. Internal and external pressure changes, hehe! When the bubble bursts, it forms a "sun flower." For the sake of beauty, 80% of the flower buds on the market have also been treated with blasting.

Xiaobian whispers:

Amber beeswax is a natural treasure that nature has given to humans, so the so-called "allergies" are purely nonsense. If you encounter a similar situation in the future, be sure to pay special attention to it. If you prove that it is a fake beeswax, you must stop wearing it immediately, so as not to cause more damage to your health!
