Description
Prickly Pear Carrier Oil (Organic) gives facial and skincare formulations a delicate, polished feel. It spreads with a smooth, lighter glide, settles softly, and leaves a refined finish that stays gently present without feeling heavily coated.
It is well suited to face oils, serums, creams and targeted skincare blends where the carrier oil should feel like a feature ingredient rather than a plain base. Its appeal is the way it gives softness and polish without heavy residue. The trade-off is richness. It may not give enough cushion for heavier products, and used too heavily it can leave shine in formulas meant to feel clean or weightless.
Shelf Life: Users can expect a shelf life of 24 months with proper storage conditions (cool, out of direct sunlight). Refrigeration after opening is recommended.
