The Oils of Live Clean / Monoi Oil and Exotic Silk Keratin Oil


The Canadian leader in eco-friendly products, Live Clean, has developed two new hair oil products: Exotic Vitality Monoi Oil Leave-In Treatment and Exotic Silk Keratin Oil Leave-In Treatment. The two work beautifully, taming frizz, without weighing hair down or creating product build-up and residue. The best part, of course, is that these oils are silicone-free, 100% plant based, and deliver exceptional results.

I almost always avoid hair treatments, as I have coarse, thick long hair, and find most products do not work well on me. With the new Live Clean oils, my hair certainly doesn't feel greasy, but smooth and less frizzy. Plus, both of the products rinsed out easily and completely. Sounds great!

Live Clean Exotic Vitality Monoi Leave-In Treatment
-Strengthens hair
-Prevents breakage and increases elasticity 
-Made with Jojoba Oil and Bamboo extract
-Hydrating 

Live Clean Exotic Silk Keratin Leave-In Treatment
-Works well on dry hair
-Smoothing
-Protective
-Creates shine
-Strengthening

And another favourite of mine is the Live Clean Age Resist Miracle Nutrition Oil
-Designed as a pre-shampoo treatment, it increases sheen, lustre and density of each hair strand to appear thicker and fuller!



How to use:

Apply to damp hair that’s freshly washed and conditioned. Non leave-in oils (like Live Clean Age Resist Miracle Oil) are best on wet hair as well.

Place 1-2 drops of oil in palm of hand and rub your hands together. This will ensure a thin layer. Lightly comb your fingers through your hair from the mid-section to the ends, distributing as evenly as you can. Start with one side of your head, then the other.

Do not apply all over. It’s the damaged or frizzy areas that need help.

Leave-in treatments like Live Clean Monoi and Live Clean Keratin can be used after each shampoo and conditioning. Rinse-out Miracle Nutrition Oil can be used as a pre-shampoo treatment every time you wash your hair. With Live Clean oils you don’t have to worry about build-up. Live Clean’s formulations are water soluble, rinsing out easily and completely; they won’t build up on the hair as hair oil products with silicone do.

You can apply a few drops to dry hair before swimming to protect it from the harsh effects of chlorinated water.

Live Clean Age Resist / Eco-friendly Hair Products


Like many others, I've been looking for environmentally friendly, silicone-free alternatives to smoothing hair products - and found the one! The Live Clean Age Resist is an exceptional and powerful hair product line like no other. Age Resist Shampoo, Age Resist Conditioner, Age Resist Multi 10 in 1 Treatment and Age Resist Miracle Nutrition Oil by Live Clean effectively target problems and symptoms of aging hair: diminished density, changes in hair texture, dullness and
lack of shine, increased dryness and fragile, breaking hair.

I started seeing results only after the first few washes. Now my hair feels incredibly smooth, silky, and smells great for days. I'm surprised and very impressed - the product delivers salon quality at drugstore price point (priced from $8.99-$11.99).

Four Exceptional Products, Highly Effective on Their Own and in Combination…. 
Age Resist Shampoo: Gently cleanses without stripping, infusing hair with certified organic Rosehip Oil and Pomegranate, Gogi and Blueberry extracts. Moisturizes with Avocado Oil, thickens, adds fullness and improves texture with Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein (Thick-bond Protein™). SLS free. Formulated for daily use. 

Age Resist Conditioner: Restores hydration with the botanical silicone free alternative of Avocado and Rosehip Oils. Enriched with Anti-Oxi Fruit Blend™. Thickens, enriches and protects with Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein (Thick-bond Protein™). Wonderfully lightweight. Formulated for daily use. 

Age Resist Multi 10 in 1 Treatment: Powerful multi-purpose, leave-in beauty balm penetrates hair with rich Avocado Oil and the abundant omegas and vitamins of natural Rosehip Oil moisturize, protect, repair, soften, increase sheen, strengthen, smooth, tame fly-aways, shield against UV rays and increase manageability. Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein and Anti-Oxi Fruit Blend™ treat damaged and frail hair ends. Formulated for daily use. 

Age Resist Miracle Nutrition Oil: Emergency rescue dual layer oil to be used as a pre-shampoo treatment. Combines oils and utilizes Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, attaching to the hair shaft, increasing sheen, lustre and density of each hair strand causing hair to appear thicker and fuller. Jojoba Oil smoothes unruly hair, imparting shine and manageability. Rosehip and Avocado Oil act as a natural alternative to silicone. Formulated for use as a pre-shampoo treatment as often as needed.
