Thanks, MelissaHI.
I just visited the essence website. No, it's not the same. Oh well... I really DO appreciate your valuable assistance. I'll just have to wait until the next time I'm in Maui. Perhaps my dh will come home with my last bar of soap still in the wrapper!! But I think that's expecting too much.
In the meantime, I'll enjoy the last bar I have in the shower at this time.
Aloha and mahalo.

simpson,
try this website www.remembermaui.com these lotions and cream soaps are handmade on Maui. I bought some lotion while I was there and am ordering more online for all of my female relatives for X-mas. Hope this helps.

Cindyrella,
Thanks for the tip. I think I've probably looked at all the soap sites in the world trying to identify the "right" one... if one exists! I've ordered some soap from kopahaiku but will be trying other "brands" as well. I'll try the one you suggest since you think it is a nice one to give to your friends.
Thanks!

This past February my mom, aunt and I visited Oahu. My mom bought me a beautiful silver necklace with a hibiscus flower and matching earrings. She gave it to me before I left, since I was there a shorter period. I bought myself two Tiki statues from a man that was carving them at the International Market Place. I can hardly wait to go back!

To Cindyrella,
I just received my bars of "remember maui" soap. It's not the same as the bars I bought at Lahaina. Oh well, they do smell really nice. I am sure I will like them. I'm still awaiting my haiku soap. We'll see how it compares.
Anyway, thanks for the tip.
I'm still going to have to go back to Maui to find the exact soaps I bought in August though.

Hey Carol,
I found this site after looking for this soap I bought on Front Street last April. I think I bought it at Bad Ass Coffee Comp, but saw it at bath shops, too. I am going crazy trying to find it, it has kinda light dyed handmade paper with a gold oval label. It's not glycerine,is this the same one? They have plumeria, mango, hawaiian rain, and other scents. ?Same soap?

My friend brought me and her other friends all a flip flop pendant. Really cute. Here's a link to see what they look like. Ours vary from these but this is the basic look.

I got my package of Kopa Haiku soap just today. It smells wonderful! No, it isn't what I bought in August when in Maui, but I think I will be quite happy with it. I may post again, once I've used it. That may be a little while down the line as I'm still using my last bar from August (the one I can't seem to find...yet) and it will last me a while.
Just wanted to say thanks for the tip on Haiku soap!
