Marley’s Monsters
4 months ago
Marley's Monsters is based in my hometown, and it's been on my "must-visit" list when I'm home for years. Their storefront has all their products, plus a range of eco-friendly goods. Most of my products are from their seconds sales (items with imperfections), but I've had no quality issues due to buying seconds. When considering buying Marley's Monsters products, it's important to ask yourself if you will like the user experience of whatever product you're buying. I like some of their products more than others, and I even disagree with my mom on some! I love the facial rounds, but my mom doesn't -- they aren't very fluffy, and didn't work well with her preferred makeup remover. My mom loves the washable sponges, but I am unconvinced that any type of sponge is very sanitary, so I stick with Swedish dishcloths (which I also buy here). Finally, I don't enjoy their napkins, since I prefer linen to flannel, so I use the ones I have as regular towels. My favorite product is the baby wipes. I use them with a bidet, though they also sell Toilet UNpaper, which roll around an empty toilet paper tube and fits on a toilet paper holder. I'll also use them as hankies in a pinch, if my smaller set are all in the laundry. My set of 40 cloth wipes is still in great condition after 4+ years. I don't find this unsanitary, since I am the only one using them, I only use them for #1, and I use them with a bidet. I also use and enjoy, but probably won't repurchase, the glass spray bottles and the bamboo washcloths. The spray bottles don't make sense for me to repurchase on vacation. The washcloths roll up on the sides. This isn't a problem for use, but it makes them take forever to dry. They come out still wet from a high-heat dryer cycle.
