Botanical Name: Opuntia ficus-indica
 
Aromatic Description: Prickly Pear Seed Oil is a luxurious and highly sought-after beauty oil extracted from the seeds of the Opuntia Ficus-Indica cactus, also known as the prickly pear. The oil is gaining popularity in the cosmetics and skincare industries for its numerous facial and skin benefits. This do-it-all facial oil is extracted through a tedious four-day-long process, which makes it one of the most expensive and rare beauty oils in the world. Prickly pear seed oil is rich in essential fatty acids and natural antioxidants like vitamin E and contains the highest amount of Vitamin E of any other beauty oil. It is extremely rich in essential fatty acids, including Omega 6 and 9, antioxidants, polyphenols, amino acids and Vitamin K, stimulating collagen production to promote faster cell turnover. Prickly Pear Seed Oil is light yellow and has a delicate, almost nutty scent. It is cold-pressed from the seeds of the prickly pear cactus, which are then carefully filtered to produce a high-quality oil. Prickly Pear Seed Oil can be a daily moisturizer for the face, neck, and décolletage. Its lightweight texture lets it absorb quickly into the skin, leaving a smooth, hydrated complexion. The oil's high concentration of antioxidants and essential fatty acids helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving the skin a more youthful appearance. The oil's nourishing properties help to improve skin elasticity, giving the skin a firmer, more toned appearance. Prickly Pear Seed Oil can help to brighten the skin, reducing the appearance of dark spots and even the skin tone; effective at repairing damaged skin and reducing the appearance of scars, blemishes, and sun spots. Promote the skin’s elasticity and brighten under-eye dark circles, which give an outstanding result, especially beneficial for dry, mature, or sensitive skin.
