Morphe 2 – First thoughts on the iconic brand’s new make up range.

August 26, 2020

Cult brand Morphe has recently launched a whole new range called Morphe 2. Developed with TikTok sisters Charli and Dixie D’Amelio, the range contains a line up of foundation, eyeshadow, and lip & cheek products. All promoted as being light and multipurpose.

Aimed at Generation Z – which is definitely not me! Morphe is focusing on the less is more, barely-there school of makeup. A change from the usual high glam, Instagram worthy looks, promoted by the likes of Jeffree Starr and Jaclyn Hill.

The range contains a superlight foundation – Hint Hint Skin Tint, Jelly Eye Shimmer, Gloss Pop Face and Eye Gloss, Wondertint Cheek and Lip Mousse and a Glassified Lip Oil. As well as a set of brushes- Sweep Life Brush set. All in minimal, modern packaging these products do appear to be a world away from the usual Morphe offerings. Ranging in price from £10 to £24 they are also more affordable.

So how do they measure up to Morphe’s main range? I’ve tested Hint Hint Skin Tint and Wondertint Cheek and Lip Tint to find out.

Hint Hint Skin Tint

Skin Tint is a hydrating fluid, which claims to melt into the skin providing sheer and buildable, coverage. With a radiant finish the foundation, or skin tint, aims to blur imperfections, leaving you with a fresh-faced look. So definitely aimed towards younger people looking for lighter coverage!

Skin Tint comes in 20 shades, providing a reasonable chance of getting a shade to match your skin tone. Ranging from Level 1 Light, through to Level 6 shades for richer or deeper skin tones. The closest match to my skin was Level 1, Hint of Creme, which is described as fair with golden undertones.

Morphe says the Skin Tint can be used in 3 ways:

  • Super-Sheer – mixed with a moisturiser to provide a very sheer hint of colour.
  • Sheer – 1 or 2 drops applied with a foundation brush for light coverage.
  • Medium – 1 drop applied with a brush, followed another 2 – 3 drops to build to medium coverage.

Now, as I’ll grudgingly admit, I’m no longer in the first flush of youth, being in my mid-30s! So I knew from the start sheer -sheer was never going to be an option for me. But I was intrigued by the level of coverage the second option, sheer, would give me. On a good day, I’m relatively happy with minimal foundation, and I was definitely quite pleasantly surprised.

The coverage is undoubtedly sheer, but it does smooth imperfections well. And the light watery consistency means it sits well over those pesky fine lines. As it’s so lightweight it genuinely feels as if you have no makeup on and lasts relatively well, only starting to go patchy after the 6+ hour mark. Not exactly hydrating, it also doesn’t feel drying at all, more just as if you have nothing on your skin. Definitely not unpleasant! How would the blush/lip stain compare?

Wondertint Cheek and Lip Mousse

Described as multi-tasking, the Wondertint Cheek and Lip Mousse comes in a range of 4 shades. Soft pink, soft peach, blushing rose and vintage berry; and gives a buildable wash of colour to your cheeks or lips. I chose the soft pink shade – Wish, as I’m always a fan of a pink flush on my cheeks!

Texture-wise it is indeed a mousse, and with that sort of fluffy, whipped consistency application definitely takes a bit of getting used to! I found it difficult to apply with a brush, preferring to dab a small amount on to my cheeks and then blend in with my finger. The colour is very pretty and very buildable. And the smallest amount will provide a sheer flush that you can build up into a brighter shade. It blends out really well and much like the skin tint feels very light on your skin. I do prefer to add it over the top of powder blush to give more depth of colour, but it is still perfectly pretty and wearable on its own!

Final Thoughts

Overall I like both the Hint Hint Skin Tint and Wondertint Cheek and Lip Mousse. I think its fair to say that many of those from a younger generation are looking for a less is more makeup look, so I can see why the Morphe 2 range is being aimed at a more youthful audience. But probably more importantly, it’s also an affordable range, with a reasonable amount of shades, that seem to perform just as they claim to. I’m yet to try the eye shadows or lip glosses but I definitely wouldn’t be averse to adding a few more Morphe 2 products to my make up bag!

    Oh my gosh I love that packaging! So aesthetic. Love the idea of the skin tint and I think it looks great on you! Gives a lovely natural look. Will definitely have to check it out. I’m not a fam of cream blushes (although it does look stunning on you too!) as, like you mention, they can take some time to blend. Thanks for the review, really helpful!!

    I’m not Gen Z either but the skin tint sounds promising. I don’t really like wearing a lot of makeup and even when I do, I try to keep it minimal. I’ll have to give that a try next time I go makeup shopping. Thanks for the review! x

    This range really reminded me of Glossier products as they’re very subtle. Even though they’re all so pretty I don’t think they’re for me as I love a full coverage look! Lovely review 😊 thank you for sharing your thoughts!

      Thank you. They’re definitely more of a light no make up feel and look, so definitely not for everyone!

My Review – Herbivore Pink Cloud Rosewater & Tremella Creamy Jelly Cleanser

Another of my skincare mainstays this morning - @d Another of my skincare mainstays this morning - @deciem The Ordinary Buffet Serum. What does this little bottle of wonderfulness not do?!

This multitasking serum targets signs of aging by reducing fine lines, boosting hydration, fading pigmentation, brightening dull skin AND smoothing skin texture! You’d almost never need to use another skincare product! Jokes of course since we are all fully addicted to all the skincare products 😂

I use it most mornings and it applies really beautifully with no stickiness and make up sits really well over it. And it’s really affordable. Love it 💜

Really loving the new @narsissist Climax Extreme m Really loving the new @narsissist Climax Extreme mascara! 

I have pretty rubbish lashes, really fair and not particularly long and I really enjoy how they look with this mascara. It’s very very pigmented and adds lots of volume with just one coat!

The brush takes a little bit of getting used to, it’s huge! And I do find it gets a little smudgy by the evening, but still 100% worth it! 🤩

I have been using @herbivorebotanicals Pink Cloud I have been using @herbivorebotanicals Pink Cloud Creamy Jelly Cleanser for a few weeks now so thought I’d update you on my thoughts.

Firstly its a beautiful texture, light and gel like. It’s also gently foaming. I’m not a massive fan of foaming cleansers general as I do find my Sahara dry skin can get quite tight, but actually this one isn’t too bad at all and doesn’t seem to strip my skin much.

It’s also got a light rose scent which I really enjoy, not overpowering just really pretty. 

It’s main ingredients Tremella Mushroom and rose water are designed to soothe and hydrate, and although it’s definitely not the most hydrating cleanser I think these do help to keep it quite light and refreshing rather than drying. 

And of course, as with all Herbivore products it’s beautiful to look at, with the glass bottle being eco friendly. And as a big plus it’s vegan and cruelty free. 

Overall it’s a really nice cleanser and while I don’t use it every day it’s definitely a nice addition to my cleanser rotation 💖

this week and I’m absolutely loving it!

You can use this butter anywhere - hair, skin, lips, plus it can help with skin conditions such as eczema. And it’s completely natural and vegan! 

It also smells good enough to eat! 🥭 I personally love it’s rich mango scent but if you’re less keen on scented skincare it could be a bit overpowering for you. 

Swipe to see how gorgeously this melts into the skin 💖 - excuse my old lady hands, still searching for a miracle for those 😂

AD/PR* The lovely people at @eskskincare have been AD/PR* The lovely people at @eskskincare have been letting me try out a skincare regime tailored just to my needs. 
I’m so prone to pigmentation and it really bothers me, so it was amazing to be sent a whole set of cleansers, serums and moisturisers for AM & PM specifically designed to tackle it. And after using it for 30 days I can say I’m completely blown away by the results and these products! 

As well as each of the products themselves being amazing it’s also really lovely to just have a set regime to follow, saves so much time and stops my already frazzled brain having to decide which of my many products to use each day!
