Extracted from the small seeds of the Opuntia ficus-indica fruit, prickly pear oil is a true beauty elixir, prized for its remarkable nourishing, regenerating and anti-age properties.
Its strength rests on four actives: vitamin E, one of the most powerful natural antioxidants; the essential fatty acids Omega 6 and 9, which maintain skin elasticity and hydrate deeply; phytosterols, soothing and reparative; and polyphenols, protective against external aggressors.
“Great skin is a ritual, not a purchase.”
It visibly reduces wrinkles, penetrates deeply without greasiness, brings a radiant complexion by softening spots and discolouration, and calms redness and irritation while supporting healing. A few drops on the face after cleansing, a few in the body cream, a massage on the cuticles for brittle nails.
Do not confuse it with the macerate, obtained by steeping parts of the plant in a vegetable oil. Seed oil comes exclusively from the seeds by cold pressing and is far more precious and active. The one in the Exclusive line is rich in vitamin E (about 1000 mg/kg) and sterols (about 10 g/kg).
