elitenaildesign Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 OMG, I LOVE this stuff. Someone needs to do a co-op for this stuff. Its hard to smell the fo over the scent of it, but it is such a great scent. Just thought if anyone was contemplating this stuff, get it. It rocks.

Jami Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I have some and haven't figured out a use for it because of it being scented. What did you use yours in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ring of Fire Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 You can buy it unscented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tootie04 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 i used some in CP soap 30% and it still smells GREAT and is not drying at all. I also just use it plain....I put it on after my bath just like you would baby oil or skin so soft. It is really nice to use after too much sun!!I need more too....tootie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scent Cellar Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I make a body cream & a lotion with it and don't add f/o so the scent of the monoi comes thru. It really is sensual smelling.When I add it to CP soap I don't add any extra scent as I love the smell of the monoi de Tahiti in it.It's works great to put just a bit on your fingertips and run through your hair. Great hair conditioner in the summer weather or after a perm or hair color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickie1st Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I love my Monoi !!! I put some in a roller bottle and roll it all over myself lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Flapp Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Almost every supplier sells it but there is a huge difference in quality & price as I found out. www.moosecreekbathandbody.com has the finest. Email the owner if it isn't listed--you will love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elitenaildesign Posted September 8, 2007 Author Share Posted September 8, 2007 I got mine at oregon Trails. I wouldnt know bad rom good quality, so i hope mine is good. i just know it smells great. If I were to put it in soap with no fo, what would be my % so the scent does come through? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jami Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I bought mine at Kangaroo Blue. If I were to get it unscented, wouldn't that be nothing more than a virgin coconut oil? I know I have read something about that before on some posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 supposedly... infusing it with the tiare flowers gives the coconut oil some healing and soothing properties. the infusion does NOT give the oil scent, that's added later.And it's refined coconut oil, not virgin. http://www.monoi-institute.org/home.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tootie04 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I soaped mine at 30% and I have been told to soap cool cause it is a fast mover!! I did mine CPHP and no water discount and no added FO and it is about 4 weeks old now and still smells great.tootie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elitenaildesign Posted September 9, 2007 Author Share Posted September 9, 2007 Anyone else have any suppliers they would like to share for this oil. so far I have only found 2 sites. I must be totally blind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeJae Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 I wish Soapers Choice had it, I would add it to the co-op but I don't believe they do. I have never used it but want to try it.Maybe after this Co-op we will do one, we will see when the time comes.I don't think that you are allowed to do within one co-op, two suppliers!?!?!or I would consider it but someone would have to tell me best place to get it.

elitenaildesign Posted September 9, 2007 Author Share Posted September 9, 2007 Thats the first thing I checked for in that co-op. Of all the oils they carry, you would thing that would be one of them. I just know its really expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meridith Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Anyone else have any suppliers they would like to share for this oil. so far I have only found 2 sites. I must be totally blind.Kelsie's Creations sells it as well. It is the only place I've purchased it from so I can't offer any comparisons but I was happy with it. http://www.kelseiscreations.com/oilandbutter.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBE Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 I purchase mine at www.soapersupplies.com I usually buy the unscented... I need to purchase the scented to see what all the fuss is about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elitenaildesign Posted September 9, 2007 Author Share Posted September 9, 2007 Looks like soapers supplies has about the best price. Yes, you need to get the scented. I am going to make a big jar of manoi body butter today, just so I can smell like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeJae Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Does anyone know or maybe an MOD can answer, can I do one co-op from two suppliers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeJae Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 You are brave wanting to do another co-op:DWell I guess so, LOL, but I wanted to try some so I thought I would left everyone else too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elitenaildesign Posted September 9, 2007 Author Share Posted September 9, 2007 Looks through soapersupplies, if you inquire about it, they will do another pre-buy. that may be an option. I am just whipping up a small batch of the manoi butter now, not that you can smell it, but I will post a pic soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Hosts can operate no more than one Co-op at a time. This means if you have a co-op that is not finalized* you can not start another co-op. (*when all items ordered have reached their destination) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
