Monoi de Tahiti Oil

Monoi de Tahiti Oil:

Monoi means "sweet scented oil" in Maohi, the ancient traditional language of the French Polynesians.  The secret of Monoi de Tahiti? lies in the delicate 100% natural blend that is extracted from the rich Tahitian Tumu Ha'ari (Cocos Nucifera) palm tree and from the local "Tiar?" (Gardenia Tahitensis) flowers. Together they create a rich, non-greasy emollient/moisturizer that penetrates quickly into the skin and acts as a natural barrier against dehydration which is the major cause of wrinkles.

Monoi de Tahiti is ideal for all skin types but is most beneficial for people who suffer from dry or very dry skin problems. The best way to use Monoi de Tahiti on your body is to apply it immediately after a shower or a bath when your skin is still moist. For best results, towel dry your body then rub a few drops of Monoi de Tahiti in your hands and massage all over. Repeat if necessary especially on dry spots like elbows and legs. Massage gently until it is completely absorbed into the skin which will feel satin soft and silky smooth. If your skin is particularly dry, even scaly dry, Monoi de Tahiti is the ideal moisturizer for you. Used regularly it will help restore its natural healthy, smooth and soft appearance to your skin.

The beauty of Tahitian women is legendary. Their beautiful, lustrous hair is particularly famous. Their secret is Monoi de Tahiti which they use frequently as a pre-shampoo deep conditioner.
TO USE: simply warm your Monoi de Tahiti bottle under HOT TAP WATER until it is quite warm. Apply generously all over your hair especially if it is dry, dull or chemically damaged or chemically processed. Cover you hair with a plastic cap and with a towel to create a warming effect which will help the deep-conditioning process. Leave on for 30 minutes or longer. Wash your hair thoroughly. Your hair will become soft, full and bouncy and incredible shiny. If you hair is particularly damaged, repeat that process at least twice a week.

 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION PLEASE NOTE:
Authentic Monoi de Tahiti may solidify (and sometimes unevenly) below 72 F (22?C). This is a natural process which does not change or affects its special properties. To restore its fluidity simply warm your Monoi de Tahiti container under hot tap water.
