Your questions
Frequently asked questions
Should I use it in the morning or the evening?
Preferably in the evening, when the skin regenerates: 2 to 3 drops on the face and neck. In the morning, a single drop mixed into your day cream is enough.
Is it suitable for oily or combination skin?
Yes: its texture is fine and dry, it absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy film. For oily skin, 1 to 2 drops in the evening are enough.
Can I apply it around the eyes?
Yes. Place one drop on the tip of your ring finger and pat gently from the inner corner of the eye outwards, without rubbing.
Can I mix it with my cream or a serum?
Yes, add one drop to your cream in the palm of your hand: you keep your routine and enjoy the benefits of the oil.
Prickly pear seed oil or macerate: what is the difference?
A macerate is made by soaking flowers or fruit in another oil, often sunflower: it is less concentrated and much cheaper. Our oil is 100% prickly pear seed oil, cold-pressed, with no other oil added. Check the INCI: it should only say “Opuntia Ficus-Indica Seed Oil”.
Can I use it on hair and nails?
Yes: a few drops on the ends to nourish them, or massaged around the nails and cuticles in the evening.
Can I use it during pregnancy?
It is a pure plant oil with no essential oil. If in doubt, ask your doctor or midwife.
How long does a bottle last?
For the face, about 30 to 45 days for 15 ml and 60 to 90 days for 30 ml (see the table in “Product details”).
How should I store it?
Keep the bottle tightly closed, away from light and heat. Use it within 12 months of opening.
How is it different from argan oil?
Argan is more nourishing and suits very dry skin and hair; prickly pear is finer and targets radiance in mature skin.
Why this price?
The yield is very low (about 1 litre of oil per tonne of fruit) and the oil is cold-extracted, without solvent.
