What Is Prickly Pear Carrier Oil?
For blenders specifying a carrier oil, Prickly Pear Carrier Oil is supplied by Floral Essential Oils direct from Kannauj, India's traditional centre for aromatic extraction. Browse the wider carrier oils range from Floral Essential Oils.
This grade is worked up from seeds of Opuntia ficus-indica, Cactaceae family, grown in Morocco, worked up by cold pressed. Linoleic acid (omega-6) is the marker constituent, and largely explains how the material behaves in a blend. Retail through to drum quantities are available, all released against documentation. It is often specified alongside our organic oils and pure floral waters.

There’re so many options for essential oils but floral essential is the stunning one, no one can compete them in context of “Quality, Price and Services”. After recommendation by doctor, I am using essential oils to overcome my stress related problem. And their oils work better for me.

Finding 100% pure and natural product is really a tedious task, but they made everything easy. When I visited their manufacturing plant, I found they use traditional & high quality extraction process by using perfect quality of RAW MATERIAL. Nice Work
