What Our Customers Say

Real reviews from real customers

Mermaid Melt has become one of those small daily rituals I genuinely look forward to. It melts beautifully into my skin, leaves it feeling deeply nourished without heaviness and gives me that healthy, dewy glow I’m always chasing here in Wyoming’s dry climate. Beyond how well it works, it feels like a little moment of care and slowing down in the middle of busy days — which might be my favorite part.

Mermaid Melt was a lifesaver after my skin flared up from a reaction to hotel detergent. This fabulous smelling salve soothed the inflammation quickly, and left my skin feeling calm. I swear: it looked calmer by the next morning. I also love how well it locks in moisture… I smooth a little around my lips and crow’s feet before bed, and I wake up with hydrated skin (even in Colorado!) Thank you, Deb, for making such an amazing product. Anyone who uses it will feel the love that’s poured into every pot!

Mermaid Melt has been a wonderful addition to my skincare routine. From the first application, I could feel how nourishing and restorative the formula is. It absorbs beautifully into the skin, providing lasting hydration while helping my complexion feel calmer, healthier, and more resilient. I've found it especially beneficial for supporting my skin when it's feeling stressed or in need of extra nourishment. The scent is absolutely exceptional! It is subtle, refreshing, and luxurious without being overpowering. Every use feels like a moment of indulgence, and my skin is left looking radiant, soft, and well cared for. I genuinely look forward to using Mermaid Melt each day and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Dhyan K.

I absolutely LOVE Mermaid Melt! From the moment I opened it, I was hooked by the beautiful blue color and the amazing scent. It feels so light and silky on my skin, absorbs quickly, and leaves the delicate skin under my eyes feeling incredibly soft and nourished without feeling greasy. I’m very particular about what I put on my body and only use clean, non-toxic products, so this fits perfectly with my lifestyle and beliefs. It’s obvious that so much care went into making it. I use it every single day and honestly can’t imagine my skincare routine without it now. I’m already needing more because I never want to run out! If you’re looking for an all-natural product that feels luxurious and works beautifully, Mermaid Melt is a must-have.

Before Mermaid Melt my skin, as I just turned 40, was starting to show signs of aging, including fine lines and dark spots. I have been looking for a great product that doesn't require 10 steps and doesn't cost an arm and a leg.  I decided to try the melt exclusively for a couple of weeks to see the results because I am skeptical of everything and I have very sensitive skin. I couldn't believe how different my skin looks and feels in just a short amount of time! It is so much smoother and fine lines and dark spots are  much better already!  I'm addicted. Mermaid melt is the best skincare. I highly recommend it.

Jenn R.

Before I received my first jar of Mermaid Melt, I was skeptical. The claims sounded familiar: you only need a tiny amount, and it melts beautifully into your skin. I’d heard that before. But when I finally tried it, I was genuinely surprised by the accuracy of the description. A little truly does go a long way, and it literally melted right into my skin without feeling heavy or greasy. As someone who’s highly sensitive to fragrance, I especially appreciate the scent—it’s light and fresh. Knowing it’s made only with pure essential oils gives me confidence that it’s not just a luxurious product to use, but one that’s genuinely nourishing for both my skin and my senses. I’m hooked! And I can safely say that I highly recommend Mermaid Melt.

Shana C.

Deb’s Mermaid Melt has been my favorite skin care product for months. It smells great, feels amazing on my skin and actually produces results that I can see and feel. I’m a recovering face-picker, and the Mermaid Melt accelerates scar-healing and the fading of my few remaining dark spots. I’d highly recommend if you’re tired of trying combinations of multiple products and are frustrated with all the variables. This is a one-stop-shop for dewey, healthy-looking skin. I don’t use anything else anymore!

Sydney H.

I absolutely love Mermaid Melt! From the very first use, I noticed how incredibly soft, smooth, and nourished my skin felt. It melts beautifully into my face without feeling greasy or heavy, leaving my skin feeling hydrated, refreshed, and glowing. What I love most is the way it makes my face feel throughout the day—silky, calm, and deeply moisturized. It has become a staple in my skincare routine because my skin looks healthier and feels so much more comfortable after using it. If you're looking for a salve that delivers amazing hydration and leaves your skin feeling pampered, Mermaid Melt is a must-try. I can't recommend it enough!

Becky M.

Mermaid Melt Changed My Skincare Game! I’ve always avoided store-bought moisturizers because I hate all the toxic ingredients in them. That’s why I was so excited to try Mermaid Melt, and it completely blew me away. This all-natural cream has the most incredible buttery-soft texture—it literally melts onto your skin like magic, absorbing quickly without any greasiness. It leaves my face feeling incredibly smooth, plump, and nourished all day. The fresh, light scent is so uplifting and clean, like a gentle ocean breeze. After just a few uses, my skin looks brighter and feels softer than ever. No irritation, no breakouts—just pure, glowing hydration. If you want a clean, luxurious moisturizer that actually delivers, Mermaid Melt is it. I’m obsessed and won’t use anything else! 🧜‍♀️✨ Highly recommend!

I’ve been absolutely loving Mermaid Melt! The scent is beautiful without being overpowering, and it leaves my skin feeling incredibly soft. Living in Colorado, where the air is so dry, it’s been especially wonderful—rich, nourishing, and exactly what my skin needs. I loved it so much I just ordered my second jar. Highly recommend! 💙✨
