Prickly pear oil becomes a holy grail for facial oils because it suits all types of skin and has diverse uses and benefits. But what do we know about prickly pear and it's oil?

What Are Prickly Pears?

Prickly pears are commonly known as cactus fruits because they grow on paddle cacti. They are also called Opuntia, Nopal fruit, and Barbary Fig. They are reddish bulbous fruits and have a covering of protective bristles that are prickly, hence the name. They have an amazing water retention quality and absorb high amounts of water in their fleshy insides.

The benefits of the prickly pears don't end with its fleshy fruits, but its seeds are used to extract its highly beneficial oil.

The seeds only contain 5% of oil, and a heap of them are used to extract enough for topical use. With their remarkable effectiveness, there is a rapid increase in demand for prickly pear oils.

Where Do They Come From?

They may not have been well-known until recently but are actually a staple in Mexican cuisine. In fact, in Central America, it is used for diabetes as well.

They are very common in South America, the Mediterranean, and parts of the Middle East as well. They are native to Morocco, just like the popular argan oils.

They are eaten, both raw and dried, and are considered a highly nutritious food in these areas.

Benefits of Prickly Pear Oil

There are various health and beauty benefits of this oil. The prickly pear oil is not to be confused with essential oil, although it can be paired with them for use. It is a carrier oil and can be used on its own or with a combination of other oils.

Mixing it with retinol and vitamin C is a highly effective way of using prickly pear oil. On their own, both vitamin A and C can cause mild irritation, which prickly pear oil can combat with its soothing effect.

Prickly pear oil is highly effective for strengthening hair roots and nails. It is also very good for your skin and has anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties.

As the fruit is densely packed with moisture and high on water retention, it is one of the best oils for locking in moisture. Prickly pear oil is highly effective on dry and acne-prone skin.

It is light-weight and non-comedogenic, which makes it all the more useful. It is also beneficial for combination skin. So, it is perfect for you, no matter what skin type you belong to.

It reduces inflammation and aging considerably and is very helpful for those with sun-damaged skin.

The oil reduces pigmentation caused by UV rays and evens out the skin tone as well as it contains high levels of Vitamin K and linoleic acid. It also contains the highest percentage of Vitamin E oil- 150% more than argan oil and is full of antioxidants and omega fatty acids.

The amino acids in it are highly productive towards keeping skin healthy, elastic, and moisturized.

Prickly Pear Oil for Hair

Vitamin E is a great oil to nurture your hair roots. It stimulates growth and prevents your scalp from drying out as well. With prickly pear consisting of Vitamin E oil in high amounts, it is inadvertently an amazing addition to your hair care package, too.

If what you desire are long luscious tresses, then prickly pear oil can be used with other hair stimulating serums and essential oils. Pairing it with drops of essential oils like lavender essential oil and tea tree oil can be incredibly beneficial.

Massaging the mixtures can not only increase blood circulation and strengthen your roots but can also help with your headaches.

The Goodness of Prickly Pear Oil

The prickly pear seed oil has been very evidently effective for dealing with acne. Irritation and discomfort caused by acne is something we are all familiar with, and prickly pear oil can soothe the skin and balance the oil production to prevent them.

Since prickly pear seed oil is made from seeds that contain only 5% oil content, it can be quite difficult and expensive to gather it.

A large number of seeds and fruits are required to effectively produce enough oil to be marketed. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why it is so expensive.

But a few extra bucks is no match for glowing, radiant, and healthy skin.
Make sure to buy oils that are refined or cold-pressed. It can be easy to buy the wrong kind of oil that may not be the best in terms of quality and use, so it is crucial to buy from trusted brands. Goodvara Laboratories offers the best and purest bulk natural oils.
