About the Author
Monoi de Tahiti oil is like a spa in a bottle. This Tahitian wonder oil is filled with skin-soothing benefits and is highly versatile. Since discovering it more than a decade ago, I have used it in my soaps, whipped shea butter, and right out of the bottle. This fragrant oil is easily absorbed into one's skin. Another unique aspect of Monoi de Tahiti is due to being coconut-based; it can be solid, semi-solid or liquid, depending upon the temperature.
What Is Monoi de Tahiti?
Monoi, which translates as scented oil,
comes exclusively from Tahitian coconuts. The genus of Cocos nucifera that grows in the coral soil of this island is combined with the native flower, Gardenia tahitensis. Similar to jasmine, the white petals of this flower also have a distinct sweet floral aroma. So connected to this area, the Tiare flower is the emblem of French Polynesia.
Handpicked Tahitian Tiare flower buds are macerated for at least ten days with coconut oil to create this lovely floral scent. Monoi de Tahiti oil is solid at temperatures of 75 degrees Fahrenheit [24 degrees Celsius] and it will become liquid at higher temperatures -- this doesn't affect the product at all. It can be melted and then allowed to solidify many times. This multipurpose oil has a shelf life of one to two years. Monoi de Tahiti is an excellent skin moisturizer and is recommended for those of you who are looking for a soothing after tan product. Using Monoi de Tahiti as a hair conditioner will condition your hair and leave it smelling like you've been on vacation in Tahiti. In fact, Tahitians have been using Monoi de Tahiti for centuries...and now you can give this luxurious silky oil a try!
It's very important to note that while Monoi de Tahiti is a coconut-based oil, it's NOT greasy or sticky. Those of you who have oily skin may be pleasantly surprised to discover that it can work for their skin. Since this lovely oil contains only natural plant-based ingredients it's fine for vegetarians and vegans to use.
"Parfumerie Tiki was founded in Tahiti in 1942 and created and sold the first commercially available Monoi Tiki perfumed oil. Today their
