Butter is an unsaturated compound or an olefin in contrast to wax which is a saturated compound. So butter will show more reactivity for reactants. As such, they show different chemical nature.

Answer:

Paraffin wax is a white or colorless soft, solid wax. It's made from saturated hydrocarbons. It's often used in skin-softening salon and spa treatments on the hands, cuticles, and feet because it's colorless, tasteless, and odorless. It can also be used to provide pain relief to sore joints and muscles.
