Monat Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive | Review

Press Sample provided by iFabbo and Monat (Unaffiliated Links)

I grew up hearing my mother say that the best way to deal with naturally curly hair was to religiously use oil in it to keep it soft, supple, manageable, shiny, and free of frizz and fly-aways. That she did it long before it was a trend is a testament to the efficacy of this method of haircare. I would only add that while the benefits are irrefutable for curly hair that they extend to all types of hair.

Monat Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive is a very nourishing blend of luscious oils that nourish the hair and skin effortlessly. For the hair, I warm a dropper full between my hands and massage it into damp hair from scalp to tips. My hair is rendered more manageable and tangle free, and once dried it is soft, glossy, tangle-free, and frizz-free, but never greasy. I also use it on dry hair for styling, and for taming any frizzies or fly-aways. My curls form into glossy ringlets that look and feel gorgeous. Rejuveniqe Oil Intensive is unquestionably outstanding in its capacity as a luxury hair oil.

As a face and body moisturizer, Rejuveniqe is a decadent oil that is lightweight and fast absorbing. I apply it to warm and damp freshly cleansed skin and massage it in until it disappears completely. The result is deeply nourished skin that is soft, supple, glowing and deeply hydrated. It does everything that I expect from a high quality luxury beauty oil, and it smells utterly divine. The scent is a delectable subtle fruity floral that smells edible! The scent dissipates soon upon application, but is lovely enough that I periodically open the bottle to inhale the lovely aroma. This is a first rate high quality luxury oil that makes the skin velvety soft and the hair lusciously glossy. It is really wonderful, and I am thrilled to have it in my collection of luxury oils.

According to Monat,

Nourish and energize the scalp with an invigorating blend of 11+ unique molecular ingredients –including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, beta-carotene and omega-3 fatty acids – that mimic the body’s natural oils! The proprietary formula reduces hair thinning, prevents oxidative stress and adds incredible volume, repairing the hair with instantly visible, long-lasting shine without the damaging effects of silicone.
