Prickly pear oil is our top recommendation for fighting wrinkles, crow's feet, and fine lines. This oil is painstakingly extracted from the seeds of the prickly pear cactus, also known as the Opuntia Ficus Indica, through a meticulous process involving manual labor.
So, why is prickly pear oil a favorite amongst our anti-aging products? The answer lies in its composition - no other natural oil boasts a higher vitamin E content. This beneficial oil is also rich in essential fatty acids and a substantial quantity of vitamin K. The prickly pear oil from You Madu is quickly absorbed by the skin, providing a soft and smooth texture. It stimulates collagen production, thereby restoring skin elasticity.
This oil is 100% pure, and cold pressed. Absolutely no chemicals or heat have been applied during its production process. Simply massaging a few drops into the skin daily is all you need.

You Madu's prickly pear oil can be used in the following ways:
