Is Mermaid Venom legit?

Yes. Mermaid Venom is a small gothic, witchy and dark-humor shop run by one person: me, Elise. I pick every product, answer every email, and fix problems myself. More than 58,000 people follow us on Instagram.

Why you may have seen bad reviews

A few years ago, outside people were handling our social media and customer messages, and some customers waited too long or never got answers. That was my responsibility. I let them go, took customer service back myself, and rebuilt how we ship and communicate. You can ask me anything on our official community, r/officialMermaidVenom.

How we deliver now

  • Real-time tracking. Every order gets a tracking number by email when it ships, and you can follow it any time on our Track Your Order page.
  • Faster handoff. Orders are processed within 1–3 business days and handed to the carrier as soon as they're ready.
  • Someone watching your order. If a package stops moving, I follow up with the carrier myself.

Tracking can take a day or two to show movement, until the carrier first scans your package. If it still shows nothing after 5 business days, email me and I'll look into it.

How long shipping takes

Destination Processing Shipping
United States 1–3 business days 7–14 business days
Canada and Europe 1–3 business days 7–14 business days
Australia and New Zealand 1–3 business days 7–14 business days
Mexico, Central and South America 1–3 business days 7–14 business days

Our products are made by trusted production partners, some in the US and some overseas, so one order may arrive in more than one package.

If something goes wrong

  • Never arrived within 30 business days: I'll reship your order.
  • Damaged or wrong item: email a photo right away and I'll reship it.
  • Changed your mind: 60-day money-back guarantee. Email me within 60 days, send the item back unused, and you'll get a full refund once it arrives. You pay the return shipping.

Full details are in our refund policy.
