Abstract: An active agent delivery and/or odor retentive composition including a surfactant and wax spheres formed from at least one of beeswax and soy wax and methods of use thereof. The composition is particularly useful in the cosmetics and medical industry for delivering/carrying a particular ingredient to one's skin, scalp or hair; for absorbing odor causing materials, such as fuel byproducts from a skin surface; and/or for providing exfoliating properties to the skin. The delivery system/carrying system is also useful in binding to certain nutritional materials, such as vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and the like for ingestion and release into the body.

Abstract: A biostimulation agent in the form of hollow spheres comprising soy wax or a combination of soy wax and beeswax. The biostimulation agent is capable of providing sufficient nutrients to help maximize biostimulation of indigenous microbes capable of biodegradation of chemical and/or petrochemical spills in the environment. The hollow spheres can be applied by spraying the loose product onto a spill. Alternatively, the hollow spheres are contained within a porous cylinder, bag, or boom that allows a spilled chemical and/or petrochemical to permeate through and contact the spheres.
