A few drops of our 100% unrefined Prickly Pear Seed Oil are all you need to leave skin feeling soft, supple and beautifully nourished.
Cold-pressed from the tiny seeds of the prickly pear fruit, this precious botanical oil is naturally rich in linoleic acid, tocopherols and phytosterols. Its lightweight texture makes it an elegant choice for anyone who prefers a facial oil without a heavy or greasy finish.
Simple, concentrated and wonderfully versatile, it earns its place in a minimalist skincare routine.
100% pure and unrefined
Nothing unnecessary. Just Opuntia ficus-indica seed oil, cold-pressed to preserve its naturally occurring fatty acids, tocopherols and phytosterols.
Naturally rich in linoleic acid
Linoleic acid is an essential omega-6 fatty acid and one of the predominant fatty acids naturally found in prickly pear seed oil. Its distinctive lipid profile makes the oil particularly interesting for those who prefer a lighter-feeling facial oil.
Naturally rich in tocopherols
Prickly pear seed oil naturally contains tocopherols, forms of Vitamin E with antioxidant properties, alongside other naturally occurring plant compounds.
Lightweight and comfortable
A few drops leave skin feeling soft, smooth and conditioned without a heavy or greasy finish.
Versatile enough for different skin types
Use it when skin feels dry or tight, or when you want to add a little extra lipid nourishment to your routine. Its lightweight texture also makes it an interesting option for combination, oily or blemish-prone skin.
A little goes a long way
Prickly pear seeds contain relatively little oil, which contributes to the ingredient's rarity and value. A significant quantity of fruit and seed is required to produce a comparatively small amount of finished oil.
How to use it.
Gently press or massage 2–3 drops of oil into clean, slightly damp skin.
Use on its own or apply after moisturiser as the final step of your routine.
For combination or blemish-prone skin
Start with 1–2 drops in the evening, applied after moisturiser or mixed into it.
For dry or dehydrated skin
Use 2–3 drops as the final step of your evening routine, over moisturiser.
For dry cuticles
Massage a small amount into cuticles and nail beds whenever they need extra nourishment.
Less, but better.
We believe good skincare doesn't need to be complicated. It needs to be purposeful.
Prickly Pear Seed Oil is a perfect example.
One exceptional botanical, naturally rich in linoleic acid, tocopherols and phytosterols. Nothing added, nothing unnecessary.
Lightweight enough for everyday use, and concentrated enough that a few drops are all you need.
Yes. Start with a few drops once a day, preferably in the evening, and adjust according to what your skin needs.
Although it is an oil, Prickly Pear Seed Oil has a lightweight, fast-absorbing texture. Used in a small amount, it leaves skin feeling soft and nourished rather than greasy.
It can be a good choice if you prefer a lightweight facial oil. Prickly Pear Seed Oil is naturally rich in linoleic acid and has a highly unsaturated fatty-acid profile. As everyone's skin is different, we recommend introducing any new oil gradually.
It can be incorporated into a simple routine for sensitive-feeling skin, but individual reactions vary. If you have particularly sensitive skin, introduce it gradually and stop using it if irritation occurs.
The seeds contain very little oil, so producing a small quantity of high-quality Prickly Pear Seed Oil requires a substantial amount of fruit and seed. The finished oil is also naturally rich in valuable fatty acids, tocopherols and phytosterols.
