Usages
COSMETICS
Born in the semi-arid montane steppes of the southern Atlas, above the Draa Valley, Opuntia stricta var. dillenii delivers a rare Omega-6+ seed oil from a semi-wild cactus gradually entering traditional agro-ecosystems.
With 70% linoleic acid, 765 mg/kg γ-tocopherol and β-sitosterol-dominant phytosterols, it offers a targeted lipid profile for barrier repair with a sustainable low-yield sourcing model.
