January 2017 Morphe Me Brushes Review

Literally the last day of January, and I decided to squeeze out this post now. Oh well, better late than never! I was contemplating even putting it out because I didn't write a post for my other brushes the previous months, but I felt that these brushes could use some blog love. Since I also have a new camera, I decided to test everything the waters with my new camera and lighting, and so far so good!

YAS. I LOVEEEE the brushes I got this month. 

Lets start with a little more information on what Morphe Me is. Morphe Me is a subscription box service that sends you at least $30 worth of brushes to your door every month for $19.99/month. 

Currently, the subscription only ships to Canada and the United States. 

Besides receiving up to $30 in brushes, Morphe also offers discounts on Morphe products, first access to new Morphe products, and even how to videos every month on how you can use your new brushes.

MB4 - Angled Blush/Contour - $13.09

This is the brush you use to buff the hell out of your face. No harsh lines for those natural looking contours.

The brushes in this collection are also extra soft. Love love love.

MB1 Deluxe Powder - $14.40

This huge fluffy brush is perfect for finishing off your face with your favourite powder. 

This brush feels amazing when it glides across your face. The one thing I do wish is that the bristles were shorter. I find it to be too long and it makes the brush quite flimsy. I love myself a dense powder brush to buff in my make-up powders.

MB9 Foundation - $6.54

I'm not a fan of applying foundation with a brush, but I'm probably going to give it a shot. It's been quite a few years since I've use a brush, so this should be fun.

The brush itself is very soft and gentle on the skin, unlike previous foundation brushes I've owned in the past. If it doesn't work out with my foundation, I could always use it as a mask applicator brush.

MB10 Concealer - $3.92

It's crazy to think that Morphe could make good quality brushes at such an affordable price. 

I'm not one to use a brush for my concealers, but it's worth a shot. I could also see myself using a flat brush like this for applying cream contour on the sides of my nose.

MB19 Oval Lip - $2.61

I love lip brushes, because it's impossible to find one that doesn't do the job for me.

The flat brush with the nice pointed tip, really works well with the curves of your lip, so you can really get that precise edge.

Final Verdict:

Price of Subscription: $19.99USD/month + shipping = $26.06CAD

Number of Products: 5

Value of box: $40.56

Mel's Rating: 5/5

Worth every penny!

This months brushes were definitely worth every penny. Lately, I've been on the fence with cancelling my subscription. Honestly, I'm so glad I didn't. I definitely would have a severe case of FOMO (fear of missing out), if I cancelled it and saw these brushes on another blog.

September 2016 Morphe Me Brushes Review

Yes, I'm a little late for September's Morphe Me Brushes, but it's only October 1st. Can you believe it's already October?! Next thing you know, Christmas is here. I couldn't be more excited.

Lets start with a little more information on what Morphe Me is. Morphe Me is a subscription box service that sends you at least $30 worth of brushes to your door every month for $19.99/month. They also have the an annual fee option of $239.99 that also includes a free 35O palette, which is a gorgeous eyeshadow palette that's sought out by every make-up lover and the like. 

Currently, the subscription only ships to Canada and the United States. 

Besides receiving up to $30 in brushes, Morphe also offers discounts on Morphe products, first access to new Morphe products, and even how to videos every month on how you can use your new brushes.

Upon hearing about the release of the rose gold collection, I was 90% sure we were going to receive a few brushes from that collection. 

I was correct, of course! I was stoked to receive these brushes because I absolutely love rose gold anything. 

This month's theme was "goal diggers".

The sticker for the month. 

The R5 brush is a contour brush that works well for applying precise amounts of powder anywhere on your face. It's versatile to use as a contour brush, a baking brush, or even a highlight brush.

The R37 is perfect for blending eyeshadow in your crease. The pointed tip allows precise application in your crease, and the fluffy brush does wonders on blending everything out. 

Very similar to the R37, the R38 can also be used to blend your crease. This brush can also serve many purposes; such as contouring your nose and applying highlighter to your cheeks.

The R41 I found to work the best for blending eyeshadow in your lower lash line. It also did great for highlighting your inner eye corners too.

Final Verdict:

Price of Subscription: $19.99USD/month + shipping = $26.06CAD

Number of Products: 4

Value of box: $40.62

Mel's Rating: 4.5/5

Amaaaazing!

August 2016 Morphe Me Brushes Review

Well it's about damn time that I posted up something on my blog. I'm super excited about this post too, considering Morphe Me has stepped up their packaging game. Today I'll be going over the contents of the August Morphe Me subscription. 

Lets start with a little more information on what Morphe Me is. Morphe Me is a subscription box service that sends you at least $30 worth of brushes to your door every month for $19.99/month. They also have the an annual fee option of $239.99 that also includes a free 35O palette, which is a gorgeous eyeshadow palette that's sought out by every make-up lover and the like. 

Currently, the subscription only ships to Canada and the United States. 

Besides receiving up to $30 in brushes, Morphe also offers discounts on Morphe products, first access to new Morphe products, and even how to videos every month on how you can use your new brushes.

The brushes came packaged in a black bubble mailer. Previously, the brushes came in a paper envelope, which was nice because it's easy to rip, but the brushes weren't protected well. 

Not only did the mailing packaging change, the brushes also come packaged with a mesh plastic! They originally only came in a plastic bag, but now they have a tight fitting mesh around the bigger brushes, allowing more protection for the bristles. I definitely will be keeping those for when I'm travelling with my brushes.

They never had this before, but I'm assuming they are creating themes with each month's bag now? This month, we received a sticker that says "wanderlust". Super cute colours I must say. 

We received similar cards like this in the previous bags, just listing the social media accounts for Live Glam. 

On the opposite side it shows you information about the points you earn from having a Morphe Me subscription. You can use those reward points towards free make-up and brushes. 

This is what I was hoping they would finally have. A product card! I love that they have the brushes displayed with a gorgeous background.

On the back of that photo they have a little blurb relating to the theme of the month, along with the brush names and fake ways to use the brushes. I don't know why they wouldn't write the real ways to use them, but of course a great way to get people to go to the website to learn more. 

Morphe M431 - Precision Pencil Crease Brush ($3.99-$4.99?)

I find that this brush is perfect for highlighting the inner corner of my eyes. It's also great for smoking out your eyeshadow on your lower lash line. 

Morphe M437 - Pro Blender/Contour Brush ($?)

I was quite excited to see a blender brush in this month's bag. This brush is absolutely perfect for contouring and getting into the hollows of your cheeks. It blends bronzer effortlessly. The bristles are densely packed and short, and isn't too flimsy when you're swirling and buffing in the colour. 

Morphe M530 - Contour Blender Brush ($?)

Wait. ANOTHER contour brush? I was hoping the brushes wouldn't be the same in the same bag, but I guess it's an exception if it has more than one use. I found that the bristles on this brush to be longer, making it more of a loose, flexible brush. It works great for baking under the eye and applying highlight.

Morphe M403 - Small Chisel Blush Brush ($?)

I actually thought this was a foundation brush, considering it's so flat, but apparently it's a blush brush. I prefer using rounder brushes for my blush, so I found this brush to work well for applying bronzer (just adding colour to my face not actually blending).

Since all the brushes are out of stock, I'll have to update the value of the box after. I enjoyed the quality and a majority of the brushes from this month's collection. However, I didn't like the fact that 3 out of the 4 brushes were contour brushes. Of course there are many types of brushes for contouring, and everyone likes a different type, but I would of preferred a variety this month.

Final Verdict:

Price of Subscription: $19.99/month + shipping = $26.06

Number of Products: 4

Value of box: $?

Mel's Rating: 3/5

Good!

July 2016 Morphe Me Brushes Review

Hi again! Let us review the July Morphe Me Brushes before the month is over. Can you believe it's almost August? The summer is just zooming by way too fast :(

Lets start with a little more information on what Morphe Me is. Morphe Me is a subscription box service that sends you at least $30 worth of brushes to your door every month for $19.99/month. They also have the an annual fee option of $239.99 that also includes a free 35O palette, which is a gorgeous eyeshadow palette that's sought out by every make-up lover and the like. 

Currently, the subscription only ships to Canada and the United States. 

Besides receiving up to $30 in brushes, Morphe also offers discounts on Morphe products, first access to new Morphe products, and even how to videos every month on how you can use your new brushes.

This month's bag came with 5 brushes. 3 from the new elite 2 collection (which is not yet released to the public), and 2 from the lines they already carry. 

M432 - Morphe Flat Liner Definer - Value: $3.99

This brush is stiff enough to clean the edges of your winged eyeliner, or even line your lashes. I've been looking for a good brush to clean up the liner mistakes I always make, and this one does a great job.

E48 - Morphe Mini Pointed Powder Brush - Value: $8.99

The mini pointed powder brush is similar to the brush they had in the previous bag, except smaller. It works great for contouring the cheekbones or even powdering under your eyes. I love the brushes in the elite collection. They're significantly softer than their regular brushes. 

E18 - Morphe Round Crease Brush - Value: $5.99

I love this crease brush for packing on colour to my outer eye. It also does a great job applying highlighter in your inner corners too. 

M310 - Morphe Large Soft Fan Brush - Value: $4.99

The fan brush did come with a plastic cover, but the stray hairs were still there once I removed it. The brush could have been in better condition, but I can easily pluck them out. This fan brush is great for highlighting my cheekbones, but I still prefer my Luxiebeauty Highlight brush.

E22 - Morphe Pointed Blender - Value: $6.99

The pointed blender is probably my favourite of all the brushes this month. It blends eyeshadows like a dream. It's super fluffy but not too flimsy, so it blends effortlessly. This brush also works wonders contouring your nose, helping you get that nose job look without spending barely a dime LOL. (if that's what you're going for haha)

I can't really put a price on this bag since a majority of these brushes aren't yet released. I would say it was well worth it though. I love bags with a variety of both face and eye brushes. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my July Morphe Me brushes. 

(UPDATED: ELITE 2 COLLECTION IS OUT NOW AND IS PERMANENT!!)

Final Verdict:

Price of Subscription: $19.99/month + shipping = $26.06

Number of Products: 5

Value of box: $30.95

Mel's Rating: 3.5/5

Great variety!
