Moroccan Prickly Pear Seed Oil: Lab-Verified Quality for Premium Skincare Brands
Prickly pear seed oil is one of the rarest and most valuable ingredients in modern skincare. At Purificados, we supply ECOCERT-certified organic prickly pear seed oil in bulk, backed by full documentation and international compliance. Our oil is cold-pressed and lab-verified to meet the stringent quality demands of premium skincare brands in USA and EU markets.
With over 15 years of expertise, we ensure every batch provides consistent specifications, regulatory compliance, and full traceability from Moroccan farms to your formulation lab.
Why Lab Testing Matters for Prickly Pear Seed Oil Quality?
Low yield rates make quality verification crucial. Just 1 kg of prickly pear seed oil requires nearly 1 ton of fruit. This scarcity means every drop must meet premium standards and brands must trust their supplier’s verification process.
Our controlled sourcing and in-house verification ensure stable fatty acid composition and antioxidant levels, providing reliable performance for skincare formulations.

Premium Concentration vs Market Alternatives
Many suppliers dilute or blend prickly pear seed oil due to its high cost and low yield.
