Essential Living 1LB - Powdered Pine Resin -Great for Beeswax Wraps: Powdered Pine Rosin 100% Natural

I read previous comments before I purchased this. I was a little concerned, someone said their package arrived hardened into a block and someone else said they had problems getting the resin to melt. My package did arrive in a clump, but a few taps with a hammer solved that problem. I think slapping the package on the counter would have been effective too. The resin does take a while to melt over heat, that's a common problem but with a little patience it melted. I live at a high altitude and resin takes longer, at a higher temp to melt. This worked perfectly for my needs, I'd recommend it and I'd purchase it again without hesitation!

This melted into my melted beeswax perfectly. And once dry, the stick that it gave them was just what I needed. I would prefer that in the future you do not package this in plastic, especially since so many people are buying this stuff for wraps, with the intent to decrease plastic waste. But it is a great product. Thanks. By the time I run out of this, I hope to find a vendor who packages in nonplastic. (many vendors are starting to offer options of paper or plastic with a small markup for the more expensive non-plastic, which I am always happy to pay as long as it is not too much more.)

The item came as a solid block of solidified powder pine resin (from heat making it stick together by accident). I contacted customer service and they were really helpful, kind and even replaced it!

bought the resin to add to bees wax to make beeswax wraps. it was easy to use and make the wraps just tacky enough that they stick great. quality product. very uniform size.

Well, the packaging is totally not what is depicted in the first picture so I found that a little strange. I used this resin for making beeswax wraps. The scent is very strong and when I added it to the mixture it clumped up A LOT. I even tried sprinkling little bits in at a time to some oil before adding the wax.....no hope. My wax wraps smell very strongly of pine now which I don't like either.

I used it to make reusable wraps, a replacement to plastic wrap. It works beautifully. The resin does clump together, of course because its resin, but it can be broken into a powder again. Id recommend using gloves because it'll make your hands sticky.

Used for beeswax wraps. Pretty spectacular product. It's a bitch to work with, but it's making a huge difference, in my end product. I'm a fan.
