We source our ingredients from the wild because wild plants are more resilient than cultivated plants. When used in skincare this built-up resilience translates to higher potency — and better results.
Our wild prickly pear is sourced from Sbouya, which is located in the dry and exposed terrain of the lower Atlas Mountains in Morocco. Sbouya's climate and soil produce an exceptional Prickly Pear Seed Oil.
This is one of the rarest oils on earth as it takes over 1 million seeds and over 36 hours of manual labour to produce a single litre of oil. The harvest is carried out by a local Berber women's cooperative, and the oil is cold pressed from the seeds.
