Prickly Pear comes from the seeds of Prickly cactus (Opuntia ficus indica).
What is good about Prickly Pear?
It is extremely high in essential fatty acids such as linoleic acid (omega-6) and oleic acid (omega-9), which help replenish skin’s lipid and moisture barriers. It’s high linoleic acid content also helps prevent sebum from hardening and clogging pores.
What does Prickly Pear do?
The oil is also rich in vitamin E, vitamin K, and amino acids, which help stimulate collagen production, strengthen elasticity, promote fast cell turnover, and brighten hyperpigmentation and under-eye circles.
Prickly Pear contains one of the highest amounts of betalains – a super antioxidant pigment – which helps to protect skin from free radicals and oxidative stress.
Who is Prickly Pear good for?
It is non-comedogenic, and easily absorbed into skin and penetrates quickly without leaving any greasy residue.
