How to use it for the natural beauty of the skin?

Pure: massage a few drops into the face and chest as a valuable youthful skin care product. 

Mixed: Prickly pear oil can be mixed with other less expensive vegetable oils to make youth serums, eye contour, firming face masks, bust care, etc.

Mature skin: add a drop of prickly pear oil to your dose of regenerating fluid every morning for a reinforced firming action. You can also make your own fluid by mixing prickly pear oil with other youthful oils such as argan, rose hip, avocado, rosehip, plum and pomegranate.

Eye contour: apply 1 drop of prickly pear oil as a preventive and smoothing treatment for the eye contour

Scaly skin: massage very dry areas with prickly pear oil pure or combined with camelina, hemp, calendula, argan or shea butter oil.

In general, prickly pear oil can be incorporated into all your home cosmetic recipes in the oil phase, for example:

• in a youthful, wrinkle-preventing face cream
• in a firming, anti-wrinkle and tightening serum, combined with organic aloe vera gel
• one drop in your day cream or oily fluid to reinforce its action
