Swatches + Review: Morphe Brushes | 35F - Fall Into Frost Palette
Swatches + Review: Morphe Brushes | 35F - Fall Into Frost Palette
Saturday, 2 July 2016
I've only been looking into Morphe recently, as I've been on the hunt for some good brands from overseas, to expand my collection and try new things. After seeing Manny, Nikkie and Bretman Rock mention this brand on their Snapchats and talking about how a popular palette has come back into stock, I wanted to see what the hype was all about. I originally was looking at the 35O palette and really like the shades it offered, but didn't buy it at the time. A few weeks later, they started talking about the 35F being available, saying to 'get it while you can' so again, it must have been another popular palette from Morphe. So I decided to have a look to see what this palette was all about and low and behold, there were some of the most nicest, shimmeriest (not that is even a word), prettiest colours I had seen in a palette in a long time and I wasn't going to hold back this time, so I bought it. Although the palette itself was only $22.99 (which works out to about £16/£17, which is so good!), the biggest thing for me was that I had to basically pay the same price of the palette for the shipping, which kind of sucked, but the fact that a real nice palette and shipping cost me about £30 all together, from the USA, it's not all that bad. I had to wait a little while for it to turn up but I wasn't in an absolute rush to get it. After waiting very patiently, I got it, in my hands. I couldn't wait to open it and see it with my own eyes.
This palette is just to die for. The colours are just... I'm just speechless when I look at it. As you can see, naughty me had to do a cheeky little swatch of some colours as I just NEEDED to see how they come out. *slaps hand* But, rather than keeping the shimmery delight to myself, I've done swatches on all of the colours so you all can appreciate this eyeshadow goodness. Unfortunately, the shades don't have names so I've done swatches from top to bottom row, left to right. The top 4 rows are shimmery and the bottom shades are matte. ENJOY!
I do apologise that my swatches are a little messy.
The mixture of finishes and colours really compliment each other as you have an endless amount of combinations that you can use for plenty of occasions. I've honestly never been so in love with an eyeshadow palette. The colours are so lovely and pigmented and still blend so nicely. My favourites ones are probably the 3rd and 4th row, as the colours are gorgeous but it's good that they've added the lighter ones, incase you don't feel too daring with your makeup.
Was it worth the price and the wait? Absolutely, yes! I have no flaws with the product or have any regrets buying it. I'm honestly gutted that more brands haven't got a presence in the UK because they could make a killing, although they probably choose the current method of you buying it online because they make a heap of money on shipping it, but I still think it could fit into the UK market perfectly. I'm so glad that I have found the Morphe brand and will definitely be looking into purchasing some more of their palettes in the near future. A very well put together brand, great quality at an affordable price.
