Description

FSS Prickly Pear Extract OS is an oil-dispersible active made from the fruit of the Opuntia cactus, known for its long-standing use in traditional medicine and modern cosmetic science. The extract is naturally rich in vitamins A and C, which support skin regeneration and collagen maintenance, while tannins offer a natural astringent effect to refine and firm the skin.

With a unique blend of betanins, flavonoids, and alkaloids, this botanical powerhouse helps neutralize free radicals, enhance cellular protection, and support even skin tone. The presence of amino acids and essential fatty acids contributes to a stronger skin barrier and improved moisture retention. Whether used to calm redness, restore balance, or gently exfoliate, FSS Prickly Pear Extract OS delivers a multifunctional solution for both skin and scalp care — particularly in clean beauty, barrier-repair, and anti-aging formulas.
