Carnauba wax is a natural wax obtained from the leaves of the carnauba palm (*Copernicia prunifera*), which is native to Brazil. It is often referred to as the "queen of waxes" because it is one of the hardest natural waxes and has a high melting point (around 82 to 86 degrees Celsius or 180 to 187 degrees Fahrenheit).
