Sigma Brush Haul and Review

A couple of months ago I was itching to purchase some new makeup brushes and ultimately went the the Sigma brand. Sigma has created a great amount of buzz in the beauty community and I really wanted to try out a few of their products myself. I ended up with a few face brushes and a couple of eye brushes. 

 F84 Angled Kabuki: Not that I needed another foundation brush, but what I DID need was an angled dome shaped kabuki foundation brush. Sigma's F84 is dense angled brush with soft synthetic bristles. I love using this to apply and buff liquid foundation into my skin. Prior to using the angled bush, I always used a flattop foundation brush but I find I like this so much better. I never have an issue with streaking when using this brush. I always end up with a very even distribution of product on my face. The angle also makes it easy to get into the tinier spaces on the face like under the eye and around the nose. When I am in a lazy mood, I always use the angled tip to blend my under eye concealer as opposed to using my fingers. 

Sigma F55 Small Duo Fibre: Out of all the brushes I purchased, this one does the least for me. I thought I would get so much use out of this brush for foundation, cream blush, pigmented powder blush, highlighter. The bristles are extremely sparse and 'floppy.' When it comes to applying product to face, the bristles just go limp and it does not make for an even or effective makeup application. Because the bristles are not at all dense, it's very hard to blend out product. I would definitely reconsider if you are going to purchase this brush and go for a brush with more bristles. The only product I like using this brush for is very shimmery highlights - it only picks up a little product to apply so you don't look like you over did it on the shimmer. 

F35 Tapered Highlight: This brush is really great for both contouring and highlighting. The tapered tip is great for applying bronzer to contour and the base is wide enough so you can angle the brush to blend out the bronzer so you don't end up with a harsh line. I also like using this brush to set my under eye concealer with a powder. The one negative about this brush is that the hairs are not as soft as I thought they would be. 

E60 Large Shader: This has become my new favorite brush for applying my all over lid color. The bristles are very soft and it's wide & long enough to cover a large portion of my lid at once.

P86 Precision Tapered: This is a great brush for applying concealer. I use this most of the time to grab product from my Mac Studio Finish Concealer and dot around my problem areas. It doesn't really blend out too well when it comes to spots but it does a nice job at getting around my nose area and blending concealer out in the hard to reach areas. 

Those are all of the brushes I purchased and my thoughts on them!
