Prickly pear seed oil is used topically to soften the skin without leaving a greasy residue. It is known to soothe, hydrate, and reduce inflammation that can damage collagen, and it can prevent skin aging and wrinkles.

It was also used to treat poison ivy, snakebites, and rheumatism...Topically, it is used for poorly healing wounds, skin lesions, psoriasis, arthritis, and as a massage oil. It is also used for colitis, diarrhea, and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)." Natural Medicines Database Monograph.
