Praan Naturals Unveils Prickly Pear Seed Oil Composition

New test results highlight high sterol and tocopherol content in the organic oil.

Praan Naturals has revealed the results of independent testing on its organic prickly pear seed oil, Lot OF-030824-0402-OR.

Analytical testing conducted by Eurofins Central Analytical Laboratories confirms that Praan Naturals’ Organic Prickly Pear Seed Oil contains a sterol composition of 8,750 ppm and a total Vitamin E content of 1,120 ppm.

“Our Organic Prickly Pear Seed Oil is an exquisitely light oil that absorbs quickly, leaving skin looking youthful and feeling velvety soft,” said Anáil Moon Devī, chief executive officer of Praan Naturals. “The recent test results confirm that it is rich in sterols and tocopherols, making it especially beneficial for formulations targeting fragile, dry, or maturing skin. Its light texture also makes it ideal for delicate facial applications.”

Native to Mexico, Opuntia ficus indica, more commonly known as the prickly pear, is a nopal cactus with colorful, edible fruits that house highly nutritious seeds. In many cultures, the fruit, seeds and nopals (pads) are consumed for their medicinal benefits and as a nutritious, seasonal treat.

Praan Naturals’ Organic Prickly Pear Seed Oil is produced from organic prickly pear cactus fruits harvested by skilled locals on privately owned land. The company’s manufacturing partner ensures proper permission from the Mexican government has been obtained.

Organic Prickly Pear Seed Oil is a core ingredient within Praan Naturals’ range of 500 certified organic and conventional natural ingredients.
