BENEFITS OF PRICKLY PEAR SEED OIL:
Worth Every Penny...................................
Each prickly pear seed contains approximately 5% oil. Each fruit contains approximately 250 to 300 seeds. It takes over 1 million seeds and over 36 hours of manual labor to produce one liter of oil!
Prickly pear seed oil is expensive! I buy this wholesale, an 8 ounce bottle for $500.00!
This recipe has 3 ounces of prickly pear seed oil. I am only explaining this because I want people to know there isn't just enough in it to put it on the label. I want to get what I pay for and so should you!
Prickly pear seed oil has the highest vitamin E content of any plant based source. It has 150% more vitamin E oil than argan oil. Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that helps protect against free radicals that prematurely ages the skin. Vitamin E aids in healing scar tissue, healing wounds, soothing inflammation, stimulating cell growth and reducing hyperpigmentation.
Prickly pear seed oil has a very high vitamin K content, also a potent antioxidant. Vitamin K aids in the reduction of dark under eye circles, strengthening capillaries, stimulating cell growth, reducing redness and hyperpigmentation.
Prickly pear seed oil is highly absorbed into your skin and does not leave your skin feeling greasy.
Prickly pear seed oil is beneficial for all skin types. It brightens the complextion, evens skin tone, restores elasticity, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, tightens pores and helps relieve sunburns. It is ideal for dry and mature skin due to its exceptional moisturizing ability. Prickly pear seed oil is also great for acne prone skin being a non-comedogenic oil with a rating of 0 out of 5 buy, meaning it will not clog your pores.
It would start every October and last at least through March. Every winter that I can remember my hands would crack, split and bleed. I have tried everything from oils to salves to expensive lotions and creams. Years ago I had reached into my pocket to grab something and I had blood all over the front of my white coat. My hands were embarrassing, bright red and they hurt! I always had to keep super glue at my disposal. A couple of years ago I started making my own lotions to put only the best ingredients in hoping this would be the answer. I will admit this did help some but it wasn't an instant fix. I played with a lot of different ingredients and recipes. About six months ago I knew I loved my lip salve and I got the idea to incorporate that into my lotion. If my lip salve was so healing then why not for my skin? I did a lot of research and viola! This is the first winter that I am not suffering and embarrassed of my hands.
Every ingredient in my lip salves and lotions are 100% natural, healing and edible. This also brings me to the point if you can't eat it you shouldn't put it on your skin! I know this is not always possible but if you have the choice natural is the best option. This is what my goal is in all my creations!
I am a born and raised Nevada girl! My family has always fished, hunted, hiked and explored. Growing up here I appreciate so much about this high desert! I have always been intrigued by the Native American history here and respected the survival of such an amazing culture!
The writing is on the rocks......if we only knew what this meant. This summer my boyfriend and I found the most incredible petroglyphs we had ever seen! Over time we have seen a lot of petroglyphs and this one seemed very special to us. Without an exact definition of the meaning, maybe that is what is so fascinating. These are as old and maybe older than one might think and they are still here today.
I had to go back and get better pictures of the petroglyphs. At the same time starting the Buzzzy Bee Co. LLC I wanted to incorporate this rare and amazing find and pictures into my labels. This was the kickstart I needed to put everything together. This led me to more petroglyphs and discovering the lizard on LIZARD Lips and LIZARD Skin, as well as adding a label of a hunter and outdoor enthusiast.
