THE REAL TRUTH ABOUT REPHR BRUSHES // Holiday 2021 Collection & Modular Vanity Demo

[@Tarot.Destiny]

I love Rephr! I have a good collection of their brushes. I have a story to tell you about the owner. About a year ago I ordered one of their collections and my husband approached me the next day about bills for the month. Well, I felt terrible that I had placed this order. I sent Rephr an email to unfortunately cancel my order. The owner reached out and asked me why I was canceling my order and I told him exactly what had happened. He said, I’m sending this set to you FREE of charge! I actually had tears in my eyes and thanked him. I’m trying to pay that kindness forward. I will never forget that. 💜

This comment is the reason I jumped to buy the 18 brush set a few weeks ago. Thanks for sharing your story!

[@Christine1225xmas]

Thank you for your transparency, Morgan. I, for one, was wondering why so many creators pushed these brushes. I am a Sonia G. and Wayne Goss fan. But you explaining the quality of the brushes in addition to rephr being a company that treats people well actually has made me more likely to try out rephr brushes in the near future. Kindness and respect are very important values of mine and I try to patronize businesses that share these values. Great video, Morgan. You are a bright star 🌟 in the beauty community.

[@mizzyhelen]

As I live in Europe, Rephr brushes are in my opinion the most easily available for natural haired brushes. As you've said, lot's of people push and promote Rephr brushes and it might be a much but at least the information/ review on Rephr brushes are there for people to make up their own mind. I would love to order the Sonia G, Wayne Goss or Hakuhodo brushes, but the costs of the import duties/ taxes and tariffs always make me change my mind. A brush brand that I am very interested in Europe who offer synthetic, natural or mix brushes is Laetitia Lemak, however there isn't that much info on them. So that is why I usually just go back to Rephr. The order process, price for the quality, customer service, is all very satifactory. Do you know where the Modular Vanity pieces are made?

[@UnboxLili88]

I appreciate you adding that intro. Rephr has been raved about by so many creators and when I purchased my first few brushes I was unhappy because I didn't think they compared to Chikuhodo, Koyudo, Sonia G, etc in terms of quality and shape maintenance. It seemed only worth it at a discount to me. However, I did find that putting them in a brush guard solved the problem of them blooming far too much. And I kept trying other styles and shapes and eventually found a few that impressed me. Even a few of the brushes I didn't like at first, I ended up finding a place for them in my collection. The fact that they continue to take the feedback of customers to create new variations is why I didn't give up on the brand and continued to see what else they'd come up with. And because they've continued to give lower cost options. Overall, my opinion of them went from bad to fairly positive over the past year or two and it has the potential to get even higher if they continue the way they are now. I already made my newest purchase earlier this morning. lol.

[@mommasglamtoo]

Thank you for sharing your experience!

[@xoxjelloxox]

Which brushes do you recommend?

[@UnboxLili88]

@@xoxjelloxox I prefer rephr's face brushes over the eye brushes, just because I have similar styles from other brands that perform as well but are softer on my sensitive eyes. But if you're looking for eye brushes, 13 is great for detailed crease work. The other eye brushes I tried are 12 (a bit too rough for me), 15 and 16. The only reason I don't like 15 and 16 is purely because they're really large for my eye shape. Face brushes though, the 05 is great for blush, particularly if you don't want a lot of pigment at a time. Something a little airier. My favorite though is 24 because it's denser so I'm able to use it with sheerer blushes to pack it on or blushes that are a bit more hard pressed in the pan. It's also great for blending bronzer as well. In fact, I bought another one of 24 to give my sister as a gift. The only other face brushes of theirs I've tried are 17 and 19. 17 I use as a backup sculpting brush. The bristles are shorter than I would have liked but it's decent. And 19 is ok. Not special but not bad either. Overall though, I think is long as the shape of the face brush is appealing, you can't go wrong.

[@michellecaudill7936]

I’m so glad for all you have to share about Rephr. They treat their customers the exact same way. One thing that has greatly helped me keep my brush shaped is gently wringing out the majority of the water with 1st a microfiber towel then a paper towel. Then I make sure to shape them. Next I make 100% sure I dry my brushes upside down until they’re 109% dry. I’ve made a devise out of a brush roll and elastic. But my brushes hang upside down for the entire drying process.

[@aledaadams2553]

[@katefairbanks7756]

Touched me deeply! Just placed my first order

[@TNK689]

I honestly get why Rephr has been raved about by creators. It’s unheard of to find fude at this price point. To me, it doesn’t matter that they “aren’t as good” as Sonia G or Wayne Goss brushes (both of which I’ve tried) because the average consumer can’t afford Japanese made brushes. Now, of course, these are still pricey for many, but compared to Sonia G, Wayne Goss, Chikuhodo, Koyudo, etc. these are quite inexpensive. I’ve also seen their customer service at work, as well as appreciate the unique brush shapes they create with the help of their consumers. To me, I don’t mind seeing Rephr being pushed regardless if they are the best of the best or not (and I consider them to be pretty great!). It’s dishonest brands with no integrity that creators rave about that frustrates me even if they have great products. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Edit: I know they made a mistake at the beginning but I don’t believe in writing people off, especially when they’ve worked to make it right.

Ordered all of the Holiday collection right at midnight EST and they have already shipped🥳 So happy they made a hooded eye collection! (Dear God, please don’t let this be a bad review).

[@loriloretta7639]

why would anyone buy rephr ??? Three non handmade brushes at 220 when you can get the whole set of 5 ( FIVE) Sonia G Sky Face brushes for 270 on beautylish??? even at the 40% off price of 136 I'd rather get the 85 master face brush and any other 60 Sonia G brush and have something high quality and long lasting - that absolutely maintains its shape on its own after washing. SUPPORT WOMEN OWNED BUSINESSES!!!!

[@theglowingbrownie5124]

Totally!!

[@emmalouise6529]

Because they sell in europe.

[@420Zara]

As far as I recall they are handmade brushes. I agree that they are not up their in quality when comparing them to Sonia G or other higher tier Fude; but they do their job. Supporting women is great 👍🏼 reason to buy but some people may not have access to any other Fude so this is it for them.

[@TNK689]

I prefer to purchase from women owned brands too but I’m wondering if you order from male owned makeup brands-Wayne Goss, NARS, Marc Jacobs, Too Faced, Dior, etc.?

[@jaycreswell7008]

Because those SG brushes cost closer to $400.00 in Australia, compared to less than $200 to get the Réphr brushes. And Beautylish frequently has no stock ... like right now. But I do see where you are coming from and I can see why you feel that way, it's totally valid.

[@gabrieleghut1344]

My REPHR brushes are the first REPHR launched and I'm still very happy with them. I have 6 Wayne Goss brushes and 2 brushes by Sonja G which I love, but with REPHR brushes I get good quality for an affordable price. Some Colourpop brushes and other cheap synthetic brushes I use regularly also. Every brush has its purpose and like Mel Thompson taught me that even some pressed expensive eyeshadows can only be used with a synthetic brush. Now I know how to use the right brushes for my Mothership I and V.

[@makeupjunkie6790]

I can say from experience Rephr is a great brand with great customer service.

omg SO SO glad the rephr holiday stuff has been released now! however, I do know that rephr doesn't have the greatest reputation in the community outside of creator space. they're very "mansplainy" from what I have heard online. That being said, I don't believe in blaming people just because of their privileges. Yes, they were outsiders, but from what you and others have said, it doesn't seem like they were purposely being rude. I have to respect their hustle and how they are always iterating. Plus, love for Kumano Japan! They never take away from the Japanese craftsmanship and/or pass it off as their own. I might be giving them a try this year, finally!

[@karenbrower9952]

Yeah.... No.

[@TheStitchWitchPodcast]

@@karenbrower9952 no… what

[@karenbrower9952]

You can get 12 very good quality brushes for less than thirty dollars from BH Cosmetics. And they stand up to washing. I dry them with the handles slightly higher than the brush layed out flat. I put something under the handles to angle the ferrel downward so water doesn't get up inside the brush. I shape the brush and then allow them to dry. I have some brushes that are a decade old with bamboo handles from Real Techniques. I got some Alamar brushes in a Boxy Charm that fell apart after just a few washes! They were valued at $20.00 for three brushes. The whole brush head just pulled out of the handle.

[@tasrahman4835]

There are definitely decent brushes at a much lower price point. My personal favourites are zeova and sigma brushes, especially if there’s a sale going on, as they’re not as expensive as Japanese handmades, but they’re still a bit of a splurge for the average consumer. Having said all this, bh cosmetics brushes are good, but not amazing. IMO Zoeva and sigma are excellent, and cheaper brushes just do not compare once you’ve tried the better brands.

[@annesagendorphmoon]

i love rephr! i like them better than either wayne goss and sonia g....i reach for rephr first! and frankly once i saw what they contributed to mel i wrote them....and i am a customer for life because of that!!!

[@denisemarie6131]

I hear you. I at first was even using craft brushes. But I did not want to buy from China anymore. This lead me into the world of fude, and I have enjoyed it ever since. I don't own rephr brushes. I do own mostly Sonia G. brushes. These are softer on my skin and do a great job with my products. I like the back story of the brushes....the craftsmanship. Perhaps try one of a shape that really intrigues you.

[@jaycreswell7008]

I have mostly Zoeva (among Dior, Nars, Jane Iredale, Tarte, Bobby Brown and a few others) as well as the Réphr core set. I don't own any other Fude brushes, WG, SG etc. ANY brush that's half decent can do the job, the difference is how easily they get the job done, how they pick up and disperse product. The Réphr are the softest brushes I have and they have excellent pick up without needing to swirl or dig too much and if the powder is soft pressed or loose they don't pick up too much (no need to "tap off"). Then when you go to blend, they are cut so that they create a blended edge in one swipe (as opposed to "lay it down" then go back in to blend the edges). They apply product more evenly, that is they don't create a "spot" of colour where you first place the brush that you then have to blend out, instead they lay a steady stream of colour that fades evenly out as you swipe. They do a lot of the work for you. Zoeva are great, hence why I have so many, but the Réphr are just a whole level up in terms of smooth, fast, easy, mistake proof application.

I did makeup for BE in the 2000s and have had an extensive collection of amazing brushes for many years. They get used! I take care of my brushes accordingly. That said, I have not had any of my Rephr brushes yet lose their shape or become over-relaxed. Even the largest 25 and 22 are not misshapen in the slightest. I’d even hoped the 25 would puff a little because that’s how I like them. I do not use brush guards. Just wanted to mention a different experience. I’m not in any one brand camp more than others. Ok, except Morphe. They always rubbed me the wrong way. 😅

[@MorganTurnerMakeup]

The morphe comment 😂

[@anh7807]

The first set of brushes I bought from morphe were wonderful. I went for a 2nd set and they were stiff, rough, and frayed after first use. I hate how they're such a hit or miss. You'd think they'd have perfected their products by now.

[@piglets]

Unfortunately their online presence at the start has left a bad taste in my mouth. Their entire pitch was them being MALE engineers that were very vocal about never having used makeup and having no experience in the beauty industry, while simultaneously claiming that they were here to show us makeup buyers how to buy/use makeup brushes "correctly". I know they've since apologised for their earlier comments but it was just super patronising and off-putting IMO.

[@TheStitchWitchPodcast]

I have found that no one on reddit likes rephr at all for this exact reason. patronizing, man-splainy, and generally left a lot of women and makeup users feeling rebuked. that being said, I haven't heard anything from creators about their attitudes being bad. maybe just a mistake or significant ignorance at worst.

[@brendamoreno4345]

By the way I do own may WG, Chikohudo, Hakohudo, Sonia G. One of Sonia G is my most hated brush, builder one

[@simplylc6887]

I wish I knew this before I made an order, I find that patronizing attitude super off putting, hopefully I can cancel my order if not, it'll be the last time I order from them. Lots of other brands anyway

[@foxwaffles]

I was totally put off them at first for the exact same reason. Then Rephr apparently noticed my brush declutter video where I totally roasted their brushes and they reached out sending me replacements in case they were defective, and a couple of new ones to see if they would be more friendly for monolids. I was really surprised at how interested they were in my criticism so I was very happy to give them more feedback, which again they really appreciated and they happily sent the holiday collection my way. I can see that they have changed their tune significantly and I can say for sure most brands would be totally pissed off at my roast but Rephr maintains an active interest in my reviews whether positive or negative and I can respect that. Particularly that they even care about the friendliness of their shapes for monolids, an eye shape that is basically ignored by 99% of the makeup industry.

BTW I own all of Rephr's brushes (all bought with my own money) and have never had any issues with their brushes as far as quality. IDK how people care for delicate natural haired brushes, but all of the Japanese brush companies give very specific care instructions on how to wash and care for these types of brushes.

I also hate the way they presented themselves as some male engineers with no idea about makeup that come to fix the problem. I believe Temptalia didn't review any brushes from them for this reason. Our of curiosity I ordered a few to try. I think their brushes are ok but way too over hyped. It is definitely much better than a morphe brush. But I personally prefer brushes from Hakuhodo. They have a lot of affordable option, and they a lot of small eye brushes if you are looking for those. They have sooooo many different size that sometimes it is quite difficult to choose from. I think if you can get the Rephr face brushes at around $30-40 it is pretty good deal. For the eye brushes I think Hakuhodo offers better option for similar or slightly higher price.

Brush 21 it's the best of their type in the market. They are in fact more affordable, but are certainly pretty good. Bring an engineer it's not a problem if they are doing the proper research as they did.

Appreciate the honesty especially regarding quality. Seen loads of reviewers gloss over this and it is the most vital element of any brush review! I have a fair number of Fude brushes from a wide variety of brands and I would certainly not place Rephr any where near the upper tier with regards to their brush quality, this includes bristles and ferrules. More like top of the bottom tier, so way better than the likes of Zoeva who also use natural hair bristles but certainly not on par with the likes of Koyudo, Chikuhodo, Kyureido, Bisyodo Houkodou etc. Rephr to me are my entry level day to day workhorse brushes, which funnily enough makes them some of my most used in my collection. I have also purchased some Chinese natural hair brushes from AliExpress, ShouShouLang brand being one that I was quite impressed with.

[@jaycreswell7008]

Thanks for the insights. I am breaking into the Fude market but our access in Australia is limited (shipping is horrific and spending so much when I can't see the brush is hard). My collection is presently dominated by Zoeva but I have the Réphr core set and they are better. Do you have a favourite? I have very small, hooded eyes so always looking for small brushes.

@@jaycreswell7008 you might want to try CD Japan they stock a fair number of Fude brands. They usually have discounts and you can go as crazy expensive or cost effective (xheap) as you want.

[@josemariapadilla8760]

I don't know but I almost own a single brushes of any brands and nothing compares to the Marc Jacobs brushes it's just too big. But the way it's made is in comparable. Love my rephr too

[@michelledeboer8834]

Thank you for doing this. It's good to know that they treat you right makes me feel better about purchasing them. I love my repher brushes love the eye brushes and blush and bronzer brushes.

[@tianiortiz8529]

I’ve bought duplicates of the crease bundle and have a few others and I honestly tend to neglect my other brushes. I have a few larger brushes as well and like them but I’m not gonna lie the larger brushes are not bad but I do have other brushes I love more but as far as the eye brushes chefs kiss. I have hooded eyes and they work beautifully

[@aprilMichelleXJRL]

Wait your from Maryland...omg me to... that's so cool

[@DionLuvsMakeup]

I haven't heard anyone mention brush guards in over 10 years! It was great hearing your experience with the brand and comparing them with other brands. Thanks for sharing that. Unfortunately, I'm allergic to natural hair brushes so I won't be purchasing any.

[@hazelt9953]

I love watching this video..seeing how you can use the different brushes and, the storage units are cool. I shall be using your link in a few weeks to buy a set as they're now shipping to the UK. Thanks Morgan xx

Your support is so very appreciated!

Yay! a fellow shortie! I'm waaay taller than you though at 5'0". I don't get to say that too often. Lol.

First like 😅😅😅😅. how are you Honey ❤️😍

[@thespottedleaf584]

OMG Morgan! You always come through girl! I just got my first ever package from Rephr and I was thinking, these feel so flimsy why in the world is everyone raving over these! I just expected more. (Long time sigma girl here) so I decided to Google "what's so great about Rephr brushes" and your video came up. I feel so much better after watching this and running to Amazon to buy those brush shapers before I ever wash these. Keep up the amazing content! Lots of love

[@jori7398]

I just placed my first Rephr order on Friday-loving that they make them so accessible, affordable, and have a line for hooded babes! I’m all about supporting them and plan to make all brush purchases through Rephr going forward.

[@karlamiranda6322]

I love It Cosmetics brushes, I do not think that I want to expend so much money just for a few brushes😊

[@jt9058]

I love most of my IT brushes too but I have 1 that has started to majorly lose its hair. While it’s a few years old, I thought it would have lasted longer so now I’m not sure I will purchase more.

[@juliannamatteis8538]

I like my complexion brushes from IT as well. Most I received with gift sets and am pleasantly surprised. Just be very careful when washing. My last IT foundation brush I washed fell apart. Just ordered the entire eye set from Rephr - they have a fabulous sale right now I’m so excited to try them!

[@freyaalice9593]

Reminds me of an upper class morphe cult

[@Banks040]

I need those makeup brush cap/covers for my brushes for shaping.. I don’t know why I can’t find it on Amazon 😩

[@grammaD1620]

Here's what I bought on Amazon.

[@UnboxLili88]

Okay strange... I thought I commented on here but it disappeared. They're called makeup brush guards and if you type makeup brush guards protectors mesh it will pop right up.

[@Gigimor]

You can also buy them on eBay

[@S.Ja.]

I like from rephr the brushes..i have order..thankyou for the video.

[@IlonaKayG]

I haven’t tried Sonia G, but I prefer Rephr to Wayne Goss brushes. They’re both good, but for whatever reason I tend to reach for my Rephr brushes over all others.

[@DianeSini]

I held off of Rephr for so long, because I just thought You Tubers we pushing them for $$$. My first set was the Core Eye set, I fell in love with them. Now 3 months later ( give or take) I have every one of their brushes, and have no regrets. I was a MAC brush user (original MAC) and I put those away, after trying Rephr.

[@suwannamackinnon6004]

Rewatched this vid again. Am interested in brushes for hooded eyes... thanks for your info.

[@annaleander]

Lol - I came here thinking I was going to be talked out of the modular vanity set and I now I want it even more 😂😂😂💖 Great video! I love my Rephr brushes. My eyes are small, deep set, and hooded and the number 23 and number 29 have changed my lower lash line game!

[@mims2582]

Of the natural hair brushes, i have Sonia G, Wayne Goss, MAC, Esum, Smith cosmetics, and love love Rephr brushes, agree on rephr having some of the best shapes. And I am loving this orange eye look

[@ericamartin7334]

I am seriously about to buy the whole launch set and the big powder brush. I've never used any high end brushes before. How do these compare to cheaper goat hair brushes? Like morphe?

[@briannehchambers]

I still have my Trish McAvoy "hoof" brush!!!! And it's still my go to for a fast eye makeup look

[@BeebaLynne]

I'm not used to you being so serious! 😂 Hey another tip on the cleaning/losing their shape issue... I was using a bar brush soap to clean mine and they got really wild. Then I saw a thing about washing brushes in Dove liquid body wash and once I tried it I haven't looked back! It really helps condition the bristles. And when I squeeze the water out, I gently reshape them inside a microfiber towel, like sort of rolling and gently pulling.

[@illyriagoddess133]

Do you think the 31 brush would work good for cream blush or bronzer? I want to buy the new set but I don’t wear foundation so I’m looking for another use for that brush to justify buying the set.

[@fishandfloral]

I keep holding off on pulling the trigger on Sonya G or WG brushes. I need to just start buying them one at a time I guess, but that’s less fun. 😁

[@Silvermouse27]

I’ve been impressed by Rephr. I love my Sonia G and Wayne Gods brushes but the OG are Hakuhodo - they’ve got a long and distinguished history of making and selling Japanese handmade, artisan brushes at a very reasonable price given the quality and they’ve got an unbelievably huge range of brushes with different hair types. I think they’re still the cheapest on the market and amazing quality - I’ve had mine for over 10 years and they’re still perfect

[@kariw.160]

I’ve got so much respect for them now after seeing them donate $10k to Mel’s Family. May finally order some brushes!

[@FarlyCreates]

Something that I do for my natural hair brushes for painting or makeup is casting them in aloe vera after I wash and semi blot them dry. The aloe helps to keep their shape longer and helps to condition the bristles. I have had some natural watercolor brushes for over two decades because I always cast them after use.

[@biogirl1381]

i loveeee rephr brushes and they’re the best brushes that i own. i know that these are going to sell out on me. i also want the modular vanity sets so badly. damn it man!!! i’m so frustrated! 😤

[@melaniemunroe1010]

I’ve been debating this set since I have all the other brushes and LOVE rephr! Your video tipped me over the edge and I could use your link! So glad! Can’t wait!

[@lornahamm3193]

I really appreciate you for taking the time to talk about this brand. I truly trust your opinions and it's because of you that I have the 13 and 14. I have the hooded eye set in my cart and see if I can swing it but you're loved thank you for all your information that you always provide us with. 👋💋💋🥰🥰💜💜🔥👍👍🎃

[@katesommers9586]

Thank you for the tip about the brush guards, I've been struggling with this for the past few months.

[@backstage6681]

Oh Wow thank you so much for the Amazon covers tip! I bought the first 3 on sale months ago and did feel they frayed just like the Morphe ones.

[@lyndseymoye12]

The “hoof” brushes are my FAVE!!! I have multiples of them from Moda and BH Cosmetics.

[@caseygionakis7268]

I agree! I have small eyes and hooded lids. Rephr brushes especially the hooded eye set has been a game changer for me. Seeing their donation to Mel was just a bonus.

[@tklmara]

Great review, thank you. I still need to place my order for the holiday releases. I appreciate the demonstration on how to use the “hoof” brush, thanks! 💞

[@rowenamariethevarakam1144]

I recently bought a whole lot of rephr brushes and one of the holiday sets, and I am seriously in love. I had been holding off from buying them for so long and then I finally bought them. I am so glad I bought them as they are super super amazing. The sizes and shapes work perfectly for my eye looks.

[@karensnailstudio7171]

I ordered the flagship set through your link, so excited!! 😍😍😍

[@gigi2k326]

I appreciate that Rephr seems to take care of the creators I watch. I've been eyeing a few of the brushes, but it's the time of year to start holiday shopping for others. One day.....one day..

[@dianadang2336]

Great video! Glad you were straightforward and honest. Purchased with your link

[@cindycox218]

Thanks for the brush wrap advice after washing brushes!

What country is Rephr based in? I’m trying to order and my bank is flagging it

[@MorganTurnerMakeup]

Canada!
