Apologies for not blogging more. A lot going on and am trying to get back to it. One of my fave Hawaii blogs Hapa Hale tipped me off to this newish spa line that uses Hawaii products, often purchased from farmers and native Hawaiian health practitioners in East Hawaii along the still untamed and lush windward coast of the Big Island. Called Ola, its got killer packaging (that's probably half the draw of spa lines, right?) and sexy scents like wild ginger, island jasmine and Ka'u orange. These elixirs, for face, body and bath, as well, are entirely nature in composition. If you scroll down you find a list of stores and spas in Hawaii that sell/use Ola. Or you can buy it online. In either case, breath deeply and smile.
