Named by the Whole Foods Trend Council as a key ingredient to watch in 2022, UK haircare-related searches for Prickly Pear Oil have increased by +110% in the last 12 months.
Having made its way into beauty formulations over the past few years due to its endless benefits, the wonder ingredient is most definitely here to stay.
Prickly Pear Oil is a highly nourishing extract with high concentrations of vitamin E, known to reduce oxidative damage1, helping to support the scalp and provide a strong foundation for healthy hair growth. Perfect for repairing hair and adding shine, Prickly Pear Oil can also work to improve the appearance of split ends, so hair feels strong and silky to the touch with a visible glossy luminosity. What is so special about the ingredient is that Prickly Pear is actually a cactus, and has adapted to its dry natural habitat over time, allowing it to retain moisture, protect nutrients, and detoxify – all essential properties for haircare.
This is where the Christophe Robin Regenerating Ritual comes in, capturing the benefits of Prickly Pear Oil, a true natural treasure with intense repairing and regenerating properties.
