Philippines-born YouTube creator, Instagram influencer and beauty guru Bretman Rock recently collaborated with Morphe to come up with a new palette that's inspired by a tropical lifestyle.
The 'Babe in Paradise Palette' comes with six different highlighters, which range from a slight cream color, to a deep sandy bronze. The shades in the palette are dubbed 'Behbeh Gurl,' 'Vaygaytion,' 'Mahu,' 'GetLei'd,' 'Cheehoo,' and 'Shady Bitch.' To ensure that consumers get the most out of each product Bretman Rock and Morphe include a fan brush, which offers an even application while allowing users to easily consolidate the product to specific areas.
