How is Prickly Pear Seed Oil Produced ?
Prickly pear oil is a very high-quality product because it takes about 1 ton of fruit to obtain 25 to 30 Kg of seeds, to produce one liter of oil.
To extract the prickly pear oil, the best fruits are hand-picked, peeled, and carefully seeded. The shells are used for animal feed.
The seeds are then washed, delicately dried in the open air, and stored in a dark place. To obtain an optimal quality of prickly pear oil, the seeds are only pressed when there is a need for this oil.
To ensure the most gentle processing possible and to protect the precious ingredients of the seeds, the MorrocanOrganicBeauty’s oil is extracted by cold pressing and filtered several times until it is 100% natural and golden yellow.
