This beautifully oil has all the benefits of coconut oil with a beautiful subtle floral fragrance. It is a solid oil like coconut, although, it will melt when you apply it into your skin, absorbing deeply, leaving your skin feeling nourished and hydrated. It is an excellent emollient. Monoi is loaded with medium chain fatty acids and natural antioxidants, that your skin needs to stay fresh and healthy.
Monoi can be used as a base for massage, it can be used on its own or can be blended with other oils for added benefits. It penetrates fairly slowly into the skin, so it will allow the hands to glide over the skin, absorbing deeply, without leaving it feeling too greasy.
Monoi can be beneficial for your hair to in the same way that virgin coconut oil is. Its moisturising abilities can deeply condition your hair, leaving it feeling soft, healthy and hydrated. It can also act as a barrier, protecting the hair from environmental factors. Can be used sparingly after styling to add shine and prevent hair from going frizzy.
All vegetable oils and fats are 100% fat and are generally high in calories (on average about 120 calories per tablespoon). Vegetable oils are often used in food preparation for salad dressings, cooking, frying, baking, sauces and marinades. As a general guide, virgin and unrefined oils have more of the oil’s natural flavour and lend themselves well for use in cold dishes. Refined oils generally have longer shelf lives and may have a higher smoke point and therefore be better for high heat cooking, but this varies depending on the type of oil. Each oil has its own distinct flavour and nutrient and Fatty Acid composition, so each oil may be used for different purposes depending on your need.
