    Love the brand's mission to minimize food waste! The team is truly trying its very best. While I support the brand, I do find it frustrating that none of my recent orders were fulfilled completely. Every order had multiple items that became OOS at time of shipment. It feels like the inventory management system could be improved. As a curious consumer, I reached out to the team to see why this might be and they did reply with an answer that makes sense. Given that there is a $2 fee per order, it feels like they might need to charge more to turn around orders more quickly. It's iffy for me now to continue shopping on Martie but it's quite fun to see the products that they curate. Also, I already get a number of these brands from Thrive Market or Sprouts so I already know exactly what I want from Martie. This might be a different take if consumers are curious to try new snacks (near expiration) at a discounted price. I am simply looking to replenish tried and true products and supporting less food waste.

    Love the marketing! A+++. It's truly a whole vibe. The sour gummy worms are tasty enough to justify the price and appeal. In a saturated market (think SmartSweets, Alani Nu, TiDBiTs, etc.), these didn't exactly wow me. I would love to see if the Blue 1 can be substituted because it does make for a blue tongue. As for texture, the gelatin in this didn't make it very "gummy" so that was a little unexpected. Overall, I would love to support the brand for its ingenious marketing but feel that a 2.0 needs to be launched for the ingredient swap and texture change. Cool brand and a case study for marketing strategies!

    I missed the Thingdrop for Quiet Mind earlier in the year even after setting an alarm for 8 AM!! After patiently waiting for the BF sale (which came out to 3x the cost compared to if I were able to get the Thingdrop), I was able to get the small weighted pillow in one of the new color drops! I would 1000% recommend this pillow. Every month, I experience a high level of pain associated with my menstrual cycle (in bed for at least a day). The weight of the pillow really helped better manage the pain while also supporting a consistent breathwork practice and isn't even one of the listed issues for how the pillow can support! I also took this to a recent therapy session and the weight of the pillow is really helpful with somatic practices as well. The portability of the pillow is an added benefit! I honestly can't stop raving about it and only wish the cost was less of a barrier to get more pillows! If it were more affordability, I would definitely recommend these to my clients or keep one in the office for sessions.

    What an enjoyable sipping experience! Lacewing is really the perfect drink after a long day. The flavor profile is mind blowing good. I had a spherical ice cube so this was extra tasty and almost an "on the rocks" experience. I was on the website reading that the bottle had 6 - 8 servings which sent me into a panic. Luckily, I realized the flask is only a double serving and I had poured about 4oz for my first tasting experience. Extremely enjoyable and unique. I did follow the empty cup and cucumber ribbons with sparkling water and extended the tasting notes (lychee, juniper). The price is a bit on the higher end so this does feel like a splurge type of buy. I personally did not gravitate toward tandem but the smokiness is seriously a trip considering it is nonalcoholic.

    An adult responsibly buying essentials - socks!! These are the real deal. Do I love these? Absolutely love! Luxurious experience for my feet! I dislike wearing socks but here I am raving about these doublesoul socks. The socks do show wear after wash even in a laundry bag. Not a big deal but do wish it washed a little better. Otherwise, the packaging is very much appreciated and feels like the brand is thoughtful of the entire premium sock experience from product development and design to reaching the consumer.

    My life moves so fast and my clothes is always struggling so Nori to the rescue. The Nori Shaver works exactly as described. The functionality does give me a sense of stress knowing the blades are s h a r p !! I’ve been experimenting and getting all my sweaters and hoodies renewed before the winter season. No accidental holes yet! Would love to try the viral Nori Press. The brand is more expensive than similar items in the market. An investment and definitely a millennial and Gen Z type of product.

    As a millennial obsessed pink girlie, I knew I had to give Kiramoon a try! The bottle is exactly what pink dreams are made of. I think the name of “silkie rinse” is super accurate. My skin felt very soft and smooth after use. Don’t love the cap design but do like the squeeze bottle. The fragrance is subtle yet intensely fragrant- not sure if it’s rose / citrus but it can feel a bit strong for those used to unscented cleansers. I do like that the first ingredient is aloe barbadensis leaf juice. Would purchase again!

    Been a user for 5+ years and honestly miss it every single time I go on vacation. I have the OG design but love how there are new options now. Highly highly recommend. As someone who used to have doctors prescribe all the creams to treat, I am so glad that is behind me. This OG Squatty Potty has held up with use all these years.

    The artwork for each Aura Bora can flavor is the best!! The marketing can be a bit out there especially if you are subscribed to their newsletters/ emails. I love how they release new flavors and hype them up with smart marketing catered toward millennials. My favorite flavor that no other brand makes this perfect is lavender cucumber. And, yes, I absolutely get sucked into each marketing campaign and have tried almost every flavor except the too limited releases like green bean casserole.

    Writing this review after an incredible night of sleep with the Marlow pillow is truly so special! The pillow ships rolled up in very simple, horizontal rectangle packaging. I was skeptical when it unraveled a bit flat. After fluffing up the pillow and getting ready for bed, I unzipped both zippers for max fluffiness and tore off the tags. After sleeping on a very firm, thick, and foamy pillow for years, I wasn’t sure how the Marlow would compete with my already favorite pillow. The sleeping position for the neck is so comfortable on the Marlow. I also sleep with an Oura ring and had more deep sleep (40%) last night than I’ve had in the past month. This is so shocking especially as I had coffee about 2 hours before bed. Truly wild. Don’t knock it off for being small or flat, there’s something in the design that makes it work for you!
