We understand it’s the dead of winter, but could

We understand it’s the dead of winter, but could someone please take us to the beach? (pulease) I’m not sure if we can make it until summer.

Good news our friends at Moana Beauty just sent us a bottle of their Lagoon Monoi oil, yes it’s making us want to escape to Tahiti a little more. But at least our olfactive senses can take us part way. 

                   

It started when Diana O'Donnell (founder of Moana Beauty) decided to become a master mixologist of potions for face and body in her New York apartment. She discovered Monoi de Tahiti, and fell hard for its beautifying powers. Years later she went to Tahiti to experience the oil first hand, and decided she had to share this cult beauty product with women of America  …  so she took suitcases full of the oil home and created an entire line of products around it.

This oil is derived from two main ingredients: white flower Tiare Tahiti and refined Polynesian Coconut Oil. It smells like Tahitian paradise, aka coconuts on my body. Soak it in. This oil is rich in Vitamin E - an essential vitamin for restoring skin and protecting against free radicals. (those terrible things that amplify signs of aging.)

Moana Beauty doesn’t stop at oil- they have scrubs, moisturizers, and cleansers too. Your entire body-ily routine can be filled with Monoi, and the smells of Tahiti.
