Natural Benefits of Prickly Pear Seed Oil

1. Vitamin K

Sabrah is an excellent source of Vitamin K, a favorite component among skin care experts due to its role in the prevention of wrinkles. By preventing the absorption of calcium into your skin’s fibers, vitamin K helps to prevent the development of fine lines. Vitamin K can also aid in the treatment of other skin conditions such as stretch marks, scars, bruises, acne, and burns.


2. Vitamin E

Tocopherol is the form of Vitamin E that is preferentially absorbed and accumulated. Tocopherol is an excellent moisturizer and has potent antioxidant properties. Antioxidants are used to heal, regenerate and restore the skin and along with essential fatty acids make the oil more stable. Tocopherol protects the skin against cell mutation from the sun and pollution. It’s also an anti-inflammatory, so it calms and hydrates sensitive skin.

3. Omega 6 or Linoleic Acid

Omega 6 is an essential polyunsaturated fatty acid that is not synthesized by the human body and has to be delivered externally. Its role is critical to the appearance and barrier function of the skin. It helps retain moisture and can also influence the inflammatory response of the skin.


4. Polyphenol

Polyphenol compounds are antioxidant, antistress, anti-inflammatory agents that prevent skin from UV damage. Polyphenols help prevent and treat already sun damaged skin and can help with redness and irritation.
