If you'd like a wax that doesn't contain synthetic additives, buy a container of beeswax furniture polish. This polish is easy to apply and it will give your furniture a soft glow. Keep in mind that because it's such a soft wax, it won't protect your furniture as much as other polishes and it will be sticky unless you buff it well. You might find products that contain a mixture of beeswax and carnauba wax, which make the polish more durable. Carnauba is a popular vegetable wax that's added to furniture polishes because it buffs to a high shine. It also lasts longer than beeswax alone. Liquid wax doesn't contain as much wax as paste wax, so it won't last as long. Choose liquid wax if you'd like to coat furniture with lots of decorative carvings, which would be difficult to work a paste wax into. For example, select liquid wax for intricately carved chair or table legs. Most commercial floor waxes contain less wax so they're easier to spread across an entire floor. Since this wax is also softer, it won't last on furniture as long as a furniture wax. If you do use a floor wax, you'll probably need to reapply the wax every few months instead of once or twice a year.

Summary:
Choose beeswax for a soft, natural finish. Look for a product with carnauba wax for a long-lasting finish. Use liquid wax on heavily carved or ornate furniture. Avoid using floor wax on furniture.
