The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 6 June 2020 8 Comments

From Hei Poa, Vanilla Monoï: "With its sensual essence and feeling of escapism, the sensation of Boldness Ode Monoi Oil on your skin is similar to a "dress with an outrageously low neckline". It is made by soaking Tiare flowers and vanilla pods in refined coconut oil. Let yourself be transported by these bold sensory notes and discover the true Vanilla Monoi Oil.This beauty oil is ideal to hydrate, nourish skin and hair and ensure a radiant glow." $22 for 100 ml at New London Pharmacy.

    Thank you Robin, it sounds like something delicious for the beach, but not the English coast which I might end up at this summer.

      I thought it was a wee bit high? but cannot find it cheaper in the US. They have lots more variety than they used to, there is a “Happy” version, and versions with moringa, frangipani, etc.

    I love a few of the original versions. They cost around 6 to 7 euros in France. The smell is just wonderful and they are very nice on dry skin.

      Yes…I would have priced this at $15? But might be the usual low distribution thing, don’t knoww.

        I’ve just checked the French Hei Poa website. I can’t find this particular one on there but they seem to have different collections going at different prices. This seems to be in one of the more expensive collections that are priced around 14 euros on their own website.

          I think this one (or at least this packaging) is new…
