Morphe Sur(prize) Box 9 Piece Face + Eye Collection


Let's dive into what I like to call Morphe Madness: a deluxe mystery box filled with 9 items from face to eyes. This is one of two mystery boxes, but I wanted to start with the more expensive box. As I’ve said before mystery boxes are a great way to build your collection from a brand that you may be unfamiliar with.


Usually, mystery boxes include items that the brand wants to move out of inventory since they may be getting discontinued or didn’t sell well. However, with this box only the lashes are currently discounted, so the remaining products seem to be staples of Morphe’s collection.


I think the most exciting thing about ordering this Mystery Box was the opportunity to get a bonus item like a collab palette. Unfortunately, I wasn’t one of the lucky ones to receive a collab palette, but I am still very pleased with all pieces I got!



Eyeshadow Palette
35R Ready, Set, Gold. $25

Cheeks
Blushing Babes - Pop of Blush $12

Lips
Mega Matte Lipstick / Morphe $9
Lip Gloss / Frose $8
Lip Crayon / Lylas $9

Brushes
R14 / Round Contour $11
R39 / Tapered Blender $7
R34 / Deluxe Blender $9

Lashes
Posh $12

The SUR(PRIZE) BOX includes 9-Piece Face + Eye goodies for $50 for $101 value. This box is still available! Pick up one here
(availability subject to change)



Overall, I’m so excited to play around this brilliant gold palette and try their lashes out for the first time. I’ve already fallen in love with the Lylas (Love You Like A Sister) Lip Crayon with its rosy pink shade and it literally feels like you are not wearing anything on your lips. This box is still available, so do you think you’ll pick one up? What are your thoughts on Mystery Boxes?

Elizabeth Mott / Show Me Your Cheeks Powder Blush



Recently I have been using the Elizabeth Mott Show Me Your Cheeks Powder Blush in the shade Bright Coral, and I've given it a full week to completely try it out. I initially selected the shade Bright Coral over the other two (Soft Pink and Peach Pink) because I love coral colors in general and I was impressed with the swatch pictures I saw.


I definitely like the simplistic design and mirror compact it's packaged in because I like to carry the blush that I am using in my purse when I leave the house for any touch ups. You get 5 grams of product for around $23 dollars, which is not that unreasonable when you consider that name brand blushes like Benefit Cosmetics Galifornia Blush costs around $29 for 5 grams.


The formula is smooth and blendable, but also exhibits a good amount of glitter and sheen once applied to the skin. I would not consider this blush color to be bold as described on their website, since it takes a good amount of buildup to get a good flush color on your cheeks.


The buildup is easy though, and it’s easier to buildup to a color than subtract, so I like the fact that this allows to create a more natural look if you like by using a bit less. I can’t attest to the other shades, but this one definitely seems to pack the most color pay off and pigmentation. I love the hue, light shimmer, and it compliments any summer look.



As for the longevity of the product I would say it held up okay. I think I only had to touch it up a couple times, but that was due to it being above 90F outside and I was blotting my skin like mad to keep away the sweat and oils. The suggestion I have is to maybe modify it for less shimmer and more pigmentation. All that said, it's a good sheer and shimmery blush that allows for a more natural look while being made cruelty free.
