No, beeswax is extruded from wax glands on the underside of the abdomen of worker bees as thin plates of wax. These are manipulated by the bees' manidbles to shape them and put them where the bee wants them.

Bees are insects with a stinger at the end. If you get stung, that stinger is left in you and the bee that stung you dies.

Bees make honeycombs. They secrete beeswax to create the walls of the honeycombs. Beeswax is used today for candles and polishing wood.

On a side note, when someone says "none of your beeswax," they mean "none of your business." Those don't really have anything to do with each other, but they are two different meanings.
