The skincare secret Nigella Lawson raves about
In a recent The Sunday Times column, Nigella Lawson raved about prickly pear oil, leading to vegan, eco skincare brand Samson & Charlie almost selling out its entire stock in one week. The surge was spurred by Lawson’s praise of the miracle oil’s potent anti-ageing and dark spot healing abilities.
Samson & Charlie Virgin Prickly Pear Oil is one of the highest quality versions available on the market, as it’s cold-pressed and unrefined.
“I respect the unique natural properties that only the organic and unrefined Moroccan prickly pear oil variety preserves. That’s why we offer a 100 per cent pure, cold-pressed, virgin Moroccan oil known to be more potent and actually help customers achieve visible results,” said Samson & Charlie founder, Carole Steack.
