Why not take advantage of the benefits of monoi?

Who hasn't heard of monoï? That fragrant oil that smells like summer vacations... If you love it for its intoxicating scent, wait until you discover its benefits! You won't be able to do without it!

One oil, countless benefits

No, monoï is not a suntan oil... That's one of the few virtues automatically attributed to this precious oil, when in fact it's nothing of the sort! Yet monoï has many advantages. As well as being 100% natural and vegan, monoi oil is a cosmetic gem. Nowadays, however, there's a solar monoi range for UVA and UVB protection.

Monoi for strengthened hair

Do you have dry, brittle or damaged hair? Apply monoï to your hair to restore shine and strength. It envelops the hair fiber to protect it from sun, sand, wind and salt. In other words, a monoi mask before exposure to the sun will do your hair a world of good. Of course, the same applies in winter, when hair is subjected to rather harsh temperatures! In other words, you can use monoï all year round.

A perfect tan thanks to monoï

At the risk of repeating it once again, monoi oil has no protective filter against UVA and UVB rays. In other words, it's not a sun oil at all! But it is ideal for preparing the skin before the sun and moisturizing it afterwards. Polynesian fishermen often use it when they return to the mainland. Their bodies have been exposed to the full force of the sun, salt and wind all day long. Monoï soothes the skin and moisturizes it in depth. So for those who like to perfect their tan, monoï is an ally not to be overlooked.

Soft skin thanks to monoï?

Monoï is traditionally used for massages from an early age. Its fine texture and delicate scent loosen both the senses and the muscles. Monoi oil often reigns supreme in spas and other massage salons. It is a symbol of sensuality and the ideal base for contact between the masseur's hand and that of the patient. Coconut oil's moisturizing properties help to soften and deeply hydrate the skin. To take things a step further, you can also add coffee grounds or brown sugar for a totally natural, 100% vegan homemade body scrub.

Monoi heals little hurts

Coconut oil is purifying and purifying. It has healing properties for small, superficial wounds. Monoi oil is therefore ideally suited to soothing skin reddened by the sun or flaking after sunburn. Pain should also disappear quickly after application.

Monoi for most everyday worries

Foot fungus? Quickly! Apply a little monoi every evening and it should disappear in a few days. Young mothers whose nipples are irritated by their baby's sucking can apply monoï to them.

Monoï is the Swiss army knife of cosmetics

Monoï is a must-have in your beauty routine. It's not only good for your hair and body. But it's also an excellent natural fragrance, diffusing its scent as you move.

Simply put, everything you can do with coconut oil, you can also do with monoi. Popular with zero-waste enthusiasts, it will replace the various toners and make-up remover lotions. Sold in its original glass bottle (recyclable), it will simplify your make-up removal every evening and moisturize your skin every morning. You can then apply your SPF day cream and get on with your day. What's more, you'll give off a delicious vacation scent every time you kiss your colleagues!
