What It Is
Katari Barie Oil is pure, cold-pressed prickly pear cactus seed oil — one of the rarest and most prized oils in skincare. It is naturally rich in Vitamin E, along with fatty acids that help support skin's natural barrier for a smoother, plumper, more luminous look.
Barie softens the look of fine lines, brightens and refreshes the delicate under-eye area, and calms the look of redness. Beyond the face, it makes a beautiful primer, cuticle oil, and conditioning oil for tattoos and areas where skin has changed texture. Each quart takes about 66 pounds of hand-harvested seeds (roughly 250 prickly pears for every 1 oz bottle), which is why it is one of the most precious skincare ingredients in the world.
Bottled in handblown glass with cork, cruelty-free and preservative-free. One ingredient, nothing added.
100% pure, cold-pressed Tunisian Prickly Pear Cactus Seed Oil produced from wild-grown cacti with EU organic-certified seeds and extraction process (Opuntia ficus-indica seed oil)
Extremely concentrated, single-ingredient oil and one of the most labor-intensive oils to produce.
No other ingredients, additives, fragrances or dyes. Just an ancient single-ingredient beauty staple - nothing added or taken away.
Apply 1–2 drops to damp skin. Can be layered alone or blended with other oils like Katari Hoba Oil. Excellent for face, neck, and under-eyes.
For Face & Aging Skin: After floral water, press 2–3 drops into damp skin AM & PM. Massage in with fingers or gua sha for a firmer-looking, plump, luminous glow.
As a Primer: Apply a few drops before foundation or concealer for smooth, flawless application.
Under Eye Care: Tap gently under eyes at night to soften the look of fine lines and dark circles.
Hands & Nails: Massage into cuticles for 6–8 weeks to strengthen nails and nourish hands.
Tattoos & Texture: Use daily to condition tattooed skin and areas where skin has changed texture.
Barie or Prickly Pear Cactus Seed Oil comes from the wild cacti forests in Tunisia. It is wild-grown and harvested by hand. The cold-pressing and the seeds are EU-organic certified.
