Monoi Tiki Tahiti Tiare 120ml

Product Information

I love using this in my hair like a hot oil after washing leaves it feeling soft with a delicate smell. Heavenlii Monoi de Tahiti is a fabulous oil which really moisturises and hydrates the skin/hair - it works best when the skin/hair is slightly damp.

Thus, this oil is from the mists of time, a real daily beauty care from plant and natural products that combines the moisturizing virtues of coconut oil and the soothing and softening properties of the Tiare flower. Monoi de Tahiti can be used as a conditioner for dry, heat damaged hair and split ends – simply massage in and then rinse out after 30 minutes for luxuriously natural body and sheen. I've used this as an overnight mask/a few hours before washing my hair and it makes it SO glossy and soft! Our Monoi de Tahiti is completely natural so the aroma is a subtle floral, and comes from fresh tiare flowers that have infused pure coconut oil.The two coconut halves are left for several hours in the sun, until the almonds have shrunk enough to be removed and broken into small pieces. As well as being an amazing vegan skin cream, the benefits of Monoi Oil also include helping to repair split ends and encouraging healthy hair growth through application to the scalp.

Before using any THALGO product, we recommend that you read the list of ingredients on the packaging. The Monoi oil is infused oil made from soaking the petals of Tahitian gardenias (tiare) in a semi-wax coconut oil. Once the refining process is completed the coconut oil is placed into special storage tanks until it is purchased by one of only a handful of Monoi manufacturers. At night, before going to bed, place the glass bottle in hot water for 5-10 minutes to melt the formula.Monoi de Tahiti is an opulently fragranced coconut butter, from the French Polynesian island of Tahiti, which can be used to moisturise and protect hair and skin.

In addition to a specific floral fragrance, monoi brings the skin an abundance of nutrients, making it soft, hydrated, rejuvenated and accelerating the accumulation of an exotic tan.
