Wax is a common lipstick ingredient which is created by an insect.

Specifically, wax constitutes a critical ingredient since it gives lipstick structure. It is supplied from any of three main sources, all of which are nature-based. Bees, the candelilla shrub of northern Mexico and the southwestern United States of America, and naturally occurring earthwax (ozokerite) represent the top three nature-based suppliers of wax for lipstick.
