Keep It Simple Honolulu Zero Waste

Nice choice of vendors sold showcasing natural products.Steep price points on some items. Will recommend and return to shop.

Keep It Simple, just take all my money! I was excited to come here when I heard about the Swedish candy but also love that they have eco-friendly, zero waste products! This cute store is located in Kaimuki and I honestly wanted to buy everything haha.I specifically came for the Swedish candy since it was Valentine's week and I wanted to pick some up for my mom and sister. They have an assortment of gummy candies, licorice, marshmallows etc in jars that you can pick yourself and put it into a paper bag. They charge by weight and it's not exactly cheap so beware when filling up your bag lol. I also picked up the viral Dubai chocolate which came out to about $40? I can't remember but it was expensive and I was hesitant to get it but supposedly it was the real deal.I bought a few other small gift items and ended up spending more than I had planned. The Dubai chocolate was honestly really good but I don't think I'd spend that much for it again. I also enjoyed the Swedish candy and would go back for those. The girl that was working was super helpful and friendly! Parking is either street or you can park in the lot by Island Boy.

I stopped by to support a local spot in Kaimukī since my boyfriend lived around the area, and while the Swedish candy and Dubai chocolate were really good, I was a bit taken aback by the prices. I ended up paying nearly $40 for a bar of chocolate and a few pieces of Swedish candy, which feels pretty steep, even considering shipping costs and markup. The Swedish gummies were also on the pricier side compared to what I've seen elsewhere.Another thing I noticed was that we didn't get the same warm greeting as the tourists who came in after us, which made me wonder if the place caters more to tourists or newcomers than to locals. Overall, the products are great, but just be aware of the pricing before you go.

Lovely store for the eco friendly. Lots of locally made items, and the service is friendly and helpful. There is a lot behind the store and a couple of street parking stalls in front if you are very lucky. Talk to the employees before you get going so you understand how to shop the weighable items; they want to make sure you understand as well. I was thrilled to find somewhere local to try the swedish Bubs candy. Spendy but delicious, and it is nice to support local vs. taking your chances online. If you wanted to try the viral Dubai chocolate they will be bringing that in soon as well.

Honestly my favorite place to get clean and natural ingredients!I'm traveling to Japan this year and was in need for some TSA travel friendly products that I needed to test out before I leave.I was warmly greeted by the cashier and she offered if I needed any assistance, I asked her where her shampoo/conditioner bar soaps were located and she directed me to the back where there was many varieties for your bathroom and house needs.I'm more into sweet dessert like smells since flower smells hurt my throat so this is what I got:Products bought:Coconut + Kukui shampooCoconut + Kukui conditioner bar Coco Mango body soap barTiare gardenia lotion barCoconut + Kukui shampoo bar smelled just like chocolate! I checked the ingredients and it does contain cocoa butter that makes the smell so good! It lathers really well onto my hair, making it squeaky clean.Coconut + Kukui conditioner bar also smells like chocolate! Only downside is that it's harder it lather so you make take awhile to get it all over your hair. I usually start from the top of my head then work my way to the ends of my hair. I add small splashes of water so the conditioner and spread better.Coco Mango body soap bar smells like mango! It lathers really well and leaves yours body squeaky clean.Tiare gardenia lotion bar, I was curious about this product and never heard of a lotion bar and wanted to try it out. It takes some time rubbing on to your skin and I try my best not to press to hard and break the bar. It leaves your skin with a buttery feel but not really not my favorite since it didn't have the smell I wanted. They only had the Tiare gardenia scent in stock when I went and I was hoping to get the coconut vanilla bar when I visit again.I recommend Keep It Simple for your go to place for TSA travel friendly products! But for storing your soaps I recommend put them in a soap saver mesh bag and not a tin container.

I love this place, they have a little bit of everything. I appreciate buying goods from local vendors and this place has them. We also love the Swedish dish cloths and fill your own containers soaps, detergents, and other body products. Thanks for helping me reuse my containers with sustainable soaps!

Great selection though a bit overpriced. In the convenient Kaimuki area. Good service. Street parking. Dogs welcome. They have their own friendly little shop dog there.

Bought my Bubs here and brought my doggie!! They also had a sweet shop dog that I loved. They had a bunch of different Swedish candy but the Bubs were definitely my favorite. The staff is so kind and I experienced very chill vibes. It's also in kaimuki which is such a cute area

Congratulations on your new location!!Woohoo!! I believe they said they do have a designated parking spot but wasn't sure where to park though luckily it was Sunday and all street parking is free so it was a breeze to swing by and check out their new place.What a beautiful layout so spacious making it super easy to browse the free reusable containers has it's own shelf which makes it simple to go through when you're like me who swings by unexpectedly and needs a refill. I did see a few items I haven't seen in the past so am excited for that though I do still have some left and it seems to last forever lol! Today I came to pick up some bamboo straws that I love and the last time they didn't have much so I'm back!!! With lots to choose from I found the one and am so delighted.You inspire me to do the right thing one step at a time and every bit does make a difference.Thank you!

I loved this store! They have refills bubs and such cute bikinis even benoa. The workers were very helpful and gave so much information about all the products! They also have free parking on 9th street which was very helpful. Highly recommend visiting this small business 10/10 experience!
