What is the difference between Prickly Pear Seed Oil and a macerated version?

Prickly Pear Seed Oil is the pure, cold-pressed oil from cactus seeds. Macerated oil involves soaking flowers or fruit in another carrier oil, resulting in a less concentrated product with different properties. Learn more on our Blog.
