Opuntia ficus-indica, also known as prickly pear, Nopal or Indian fig, originates from Mexico and its use as a food and medicine goes back as far as the Aztecs in Pre-Hispanic Mexico. The “leaves” (which are in fact stem segments) are rich in vitamin A, B1, B2, B3 and C as well as potassium, calcium and magnesium. The cactus extract we use in MIRABEAU provides the skin with vital moisture, which it also helps to retain, and has a regenerating effect. It calms the skin after shaving and limits the release of stress factors. The prickly pear is seen as an alternative to aloe vera in Mexican medicine.
THE REVIEWS
I’ve been using Mirabeau for over a year. The scent is great and I finally have no more skin irritation after shaving! Lenny, September 2020
