Prickly Pear Oil


Sold out

Prickly Pear Oil is a uniquely pure firming facial oil that can also be applied to other parts of the body, nails and hair due to its universal qualities. Prickly Pear Oil is cold pressed oil derived from the small seeds of the Prickly Pear Cactus Fig. The oil has smaller molecules than many facial oils, making it lightweight and easily absorbed by the skin, deepening its application into the skin's layers. 

Prickly Pear Oil is rich in polyphenols (UV protection, enhance skin cell repair and growth), sterols (aids moisture retention), vitamin E, vitamin K, zinc, antioxidants and linoleic acid. Each of these nutrients have soothing, regenerating and revitalizing effects on the skin. They also help to firm ageing skin and soften and lock moisture into the skin, making it an excellent anti-ageing product for mature and dry skin.

Prickly Pear Oil is also suitable for a range of skin types, including sensitive skin, due to its soothing and healing properties. It is excellent when applied to mature skin because it helps to smooth fine lines and results in a more even skin texture and tone. For combination or oily skin it contains essential fatty acids which help minimise larger pores and balance oily skin.

The bottle is equipped with a hygienic drip dispenser. The product contains natural self-preservatives.

Suitable for ageing, mature skin and dry skin as well as combination or oily skin. Works well on sensitive skin in need of extra care.

Made in Sweden. Volume: 30ml.

Product info

We always recommend you apply oil and moisturiser in separate layers.   Apply Prickly Pear Oil immediately after cleansing and toning your skin and prior to applying any moisturiser. This is because the molecules in the Prickly Pear Oil are smaller than those in your moisturiser and should be allowed to penetrate first. Follow up with a moisturising cream from our range. The oil can also be applied on the delicate area around the eye. 


It is also suitable to use as a body, hand, nail & cuticle oil. You can also use Prickly Pear Oil to soften dry hair. Massage a droplet into moist hair, from the lengths and upwards. You can also use it as a hair mask while sleeping. Apply a few droplets and wrap the hair in a towel before going to bed.

Such Lush Oil

This oil is just beautiful. I use it am & pm, after I cleanse then follow with my serum & moisturiser. I was worried it may make my skin look oily and my foundation slide off, but that is not the case. My ‘menopausal’ skin just looks fresh, hydrated and feels soft.

Hidden Gem!

I am loving the Prickly Pear Oil by Maria Akerberg, it is so absorbent and lightweight without it being greasy on my skin. I love that it’s packed full of anti-ageing properties that is needed on my mature skin. I use it most days at it leaves my skin feeling incredibly soft and hydrated. My hubby loves this product too and as noticed a difference in his skin, so it is a true winner for us!

An everyday face oil

For me this is a stunning oil I could easily wear everyday. Normally facial oils are a bit 'heavy' for my skin but not Prickly Pear! I have normal and combination skin and it sits beautifully on my skin especially when in need of something extra. I like to put a drop into my Face Lotion Moist too for a more dewy day look. Highly recommend for mature skin and or dry skin.
