How to use:
- Skin: smooth a few drops onto damp skin after a bath or shower.
- Hair: as a pre-shampoo mask, work into lengths and ends, leave 15 to 30 minutes, then shampoo. Or rub one or two drops between your palms and finish dry ends.
- Body and massage: warm a little in your hands and massage in.
- After the sun: apply after a day outdoors to moisturize dry skin.
- Below 68°F (20°C) monoi turns solid, which is normal for coconut oil. Set the bottle in warm water for a few minutes to melt it.

We bring each shipment in directly from Parfumerie Tiki in Tahiti, so the bottle you receive is the original, with the dried tiare flower inside that marks a genuine Tiki monoi. Questions?
