Description
‘Monoï’ is an ancient Tahitian word meaning ‘scented oil’ and the product is part of long-established cosmetic routine among the Tahitian people. Containing vitamin-rich Gardenia flowers which have been steeped in exotic coconut oil, this is a truly wonderful and luxurious product to use. The beautiful Tahitian women use Monoï de Tahiti daily to hydrate and protect their skin and to condition their hair. This is a little-known yet amazing product for fighting signs of ageing, rejuvenating and protecting the skin, giving you a natural glow. Our Monoi de Tahiti uses genuine Tahitian-sourced gardenia extract in natural virgin coconut oil. This oil is solid at room temperature but will turn liquid in hotter temperatures. Keep out of direct sunlight and store in a cool, dark place.
What makes this product even better is that £3.99 from each jar sold will go directly to Grace House.
Julie Stewart –
This isn’t my usual type of moisturiser! First of all, the texture; I don’t know why I was surprised that it wasn’t like whipped cream, I mean the description clearly tells me the ingredients are gardenia and coconut oil, but I wasn’t quite sure I’d like something that reminded me of what I cook with! Secondly, I’d been advised to warm the gardenia infused coconut oil between my palms, apply, then leave a minute or two to sink in before applying my makeup. This required a slight adjustment to my morning ritual and the first morning I used the product I have to admit I still wasn’t sure. But after a few days my face felt smoother in my hands; and I absolutely love the smell of the gardenia flowers. I began by using it solely on my face and neck but now include my décolletage where my skin is beginning to show those hateful crepey signs of ageing. It’s helping. And I love it, which does surprise me since I do like a cream. But at my age, I’m more concerned with how my skin feels and looks than I am about whether the product is a cream, a lotion or an oil. This product smells divine and works for me and that’s why I’ve awarded it 5 stars.
