MCO's Holiday Gift Guide: Cariloha Bamboo


*I received a complementary set of sheets and throw blanket from Cariloha in exchange for my honest thoughts and opinions*

Cariloha is a combination of the Caribbean style and Hawaiian aloha, which is what inspired the company.  The islands are always hot and humid, and everyone wants to wear something cool and refreshing, they began developing fabrics that would best fit their needs, hitting it off with a proprietary blend of bamboo, a unique alternative that would quench Cariloha’s thirst for the islands.  Cariloha is the only multi-store retailer in the world to provide an entire store experience that’s completely merchandised with products made of bamboo.

Cariloha Bamboo is an earth-friendly versatile resource that's as strong as steel, yet soft as silk. It's sustainable, breathable, and naturally hypoallergenic. Apparel made from their Cariloha bamboo even keeps you 3 degrees cooler than cotton, as it actually wicks moisture away from your body.  It also acts as a natural insulator, keeping you cool in the summer and warm in the winter. 

I loved the Bamboo robe and towel set that I received from Cariloha, and couldn't wait to try out some more of their amazing products!  They were generous enough to send me a set of their Bamboo Sheets in Tan, and a Bamboo Throw in Taupe to review for our Holiday Gift Guide, and all I can say is WOW!


This set of sheets is by far the most comfortable set of sheets I have ever laid on, they are twice as soft as cotton,and temperature regulating to keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer.  You know when you crawl into bed with regular cotton sheets in the winter they are freezing making it so hard to get warm, I hate to be cold, so I was a little worried about that since bamboo is 3 degrees cooler than cotton, I thought these might be even colder, but I was wrong they stay cool instead of cold, and they warm you up pretty quick too.  Hubby has been pretty impressed with them as well; he hates to be hot, and has said he doesn't seem to sweat as much at night since we started using them.  The Bamboo Sheets are hypo-allergenic, and made with 100% Viscose from Bamboo; the set includes one fitted sheet, one flat sheet, and 2 pillowcases.  The fitted sheet is extra deep fitting mattresses up to 18" deep, which I like because I have a thick mattress and most sheets come off easily.


What I have to say about the throw is very similar to what I said about the sheets, it is wonderful!  I think the only problem is that I only have one, because everyone in the house wants to be the lucky one that gets to cuddle on the couch with it.  The Bamboo Throw is 50" x 70" and made from 50% Bamboo and 50% Polyester, with quilt batting added to the throw's interior core for a luxurious weight.  It is the perfect throw for year round use, softer than cotton or cashmere throws, and hypo-allergenic.  If you like to cuddle on the couch with a throw blanket this is the perfect one to do that with!


I would highly recommend Cariloha Bamboo, their products are everything they claim and more, they are definitely the most luxurious I have found!  They have an entire line of bamboo products, including apparel, bedding, bath goods, accessories, fitness wear, handbags and more.  You can find something at Cariloha for the entire family, my husband and kids are enjoying our bamboo products as much as I am, and they would make a wonderful gift for anyone on your list.
