Morphe 7 Piece Rose Gold Brush Set UK: Update + Review



Hey everyone!





So this time last yeah, after hearing so much hype around the brand Morphe, I did a first impression/review of the Morphe rose gold 7 piece brush set.

I've been wanting to do a kind of update video for a while now and figured this was the perfect time as it has been a one whole year since I purchased them! I did also do a video on this, so if you want to see how they look now check that video out above :)


Also, like I mentioned in my previous blog post, I've only tried this one set and not any of the individual brushes which I think might be better quality? If you've tried any of their other brushes let me know in the comments down below! 



Rose Gold Powder Brush


This is still my favourite brush from the collection because it only occasionally sheds (nothing major that would put me off using it!) and is a great multitasker brush since I use mine for powder and bronzer. It is also pretty soft but I would say the Real Techniques are softer, such as the blush brush, although this Morphe brush is a lot more dense. 



Rose Gold Blush/Contour Brush


I think this brush might originally be designed for blush but I tend to use it when I want a soft contour as the shape fits really well for that purpose. Although I really like the shape of this brush I don't think it's great quality as it's losing its shape and a bit scratchy!



Rose Gold Blending Brush / Sigma E25 Dupe


If you read my previous post on these brushes you will already have seen the side by side pictures comparing this to my Sigma E25 brush, and going by that you would think it was a no brainer to go for the cheaper Morphe alternative. However, while I didn't mind this brush, I was actually using it today and found it so scratchy that I had to swap it over for my Sigma E25. So yeah, spend a bit more and get the Sigma brush haha. 



Other Rose Gold Eye Brushes


If you want to see what I use these brushes for, check out the video above! These three brushes are okay, wouldn't say they are anything special to be honest. 



Rose Gold Flat Paint Brush


I can't really say too much about this brush as it is the least used in my set, sorry guys!
