The prickly pear is a fruit with incredible properties, often referred to as the “magic fruit” for its ability to improve skin health. This succulent plant contains an oil rich in skin-beneficial nutrients such as vitamins E, K and C, as well as antioxidants and essential fatty acids.
The properties of this fruit for the skin have been widely studied, and it is now accepted that this oil is one of the best kept secrets of the beauty industry.
Here are the main reasons why the prickly pear is considered an ingredient of choice for many beauty products:
Intense hydration:
This fruit seed oil is incredibly moisturizing and helps restore the skin’s natural protective barrier. It also contains essential fatty acids that penetrate deep into the skin, nourishing and revitalizing it.
Anti-aging action:
Prickly pear seed oil is rich in antioxidants that protect the skin from free radicals, responsible for premature skin aging. It also stimulates the production of collagen, an essential protein for maintaining the firmness and elasticity of the skin.
Reduction of brown spots:
The vitamin K contained in prickly pear oil is known for its lightening properties and helps reduce the appearance of brown spots, scars and blemishes.
Natural sun protection:
This oil contains compounds that help protect the skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays, although it cannot be considered an alternative to sunscreen.
Reduction of inflammation:
The anti-inflammatory properties of prickly pear oil help calm skin irritations, soothe redness and reduce inflammation.
It can be used as a pure oil or incorporated into beauty products such as moisturizers, anti-aging serums or eye contour products. It is particularly suitable for mature, dry and sensitive skin, but is also suitable for oily skin thanks to its light and non-greasy texture.
