Tahitian Cremoil with Coconut
Tahitian CremOil is a beautiful and naturally perfumed oil which has been traditionally used by Tahitian women to protect their skin and hair.
It is obtained by gently soaking the Tahitian plant Gardenia Tihensis into rich liquid virgin coconut oil (cocus nucifera). It is easily and quickly absorbed by the skin, and is a superbly effective moisturiser with a wonderful exotic aroma, especially good for using after you've been in the sun as it will moisturise and leave your skin glossy and aromatic!
It is a unique characteristic that Monoi de Tahiti is solid at less than 20c but becomes liquid at 24c, so take care when opening the jar in warm weather. It also benefits from coconut oil properties.
MONOI has a privileged role in the Polynesian culture, rich in traditions. Indeed, its use dates back to the mists of time. It is associated with ancient rites and traditional pharmacopoeia: it is used in many curative preparations for diseases ranging from a mere cold to liver cancer. However, its first use until today indisputably remains cosmetology. The first navigators were already amazed at the wonderful hair and the satin-smooth skin of the Polynesian women. Without knowing it yet, they were praising the cosmetic virtues of MONOI. Thanks to its moisturizing proprieties, MONOI made the skin softer and naturally protected it from the harmful effects of the sun and the sea-salt. It was also the miracle-product which Polynesian women used to care for their legendary hair.
MONOI is a 100% natural product. In " reo ma'ohi " (the Tahitian language) MONOI means perfumed oil. It has been used since the mists of time by Polynesians for its moisturizing virtues as well as in traditional pharmacopoeia. No other product can boast 2,000 years of successful individual testing.
Stories tell us that MONOI was associated with ancient rites including purification ceremonies or protection rites. MONOI has soothing, moisturizing and film-forming virtues. From its proprieties, it is used in sun products and also in hair-care products for its sheathing proprieties. It is used as a protective film against the cold and the wind. Divers are familiar with this since before each dive, they smear their bodies with MONOI to withstand the cold. Traditionally, the Polynesians massaged the bodies of young children and babies with MONOI in order to protect them from the fresh temperatures of the night
Uses for Monoi De Tahiti Oil
For the body
Thanks to its highly moisturizing proprieties, the Tahitian CremOil is a good product for body moisturizing and is recommended for people with dry and very dry skins. Applied after the shower or melted in drops into the bath, MONOI leaves the skin with a satin-smooth touch and a delicate perfume. MONOI instantly penetrates the skin. When used daily, it ensures a natural moisturizing effect. It can be specifically applied onto the driest parts of the body, such as the legs or the elbows.
For the hair
The sheathing proprieties of MONOI are illustrated by the sumptuous hair of Polynesian women. Applied daily on dry tips it balances the texture of the hair. Applied weekly as a hair-mask, it is a wonderful hair-care product. All you need to do is generously apply MONOI on dry hair and wrap it in a plastic film for 30 minutes. After rinsing it thoroughly, the hair needs to be carefully washed. Before sunbathing, going to the sea or to the swimming-pool, a good piece of advice consists in protecting your hair with a little MONOI applied on all the hair.
This product lays a hydrophobic film on the skin. This film protects from the cold, the sea-salt and the bites of the wind. After being warmed in the palms of the hands, it is perfectly suited for massaging sore parts of the body or for warming up a weak body. It is also an effective after-sun product which soothes sunburns.
This is an entirely natural product and therefore can be safely used as a beauty-care product for the face. Any surplus can be wiped off with a soft handkerchief on the face.
