I eagerly placed an order with a UK supplier of Sigma brushes, since they didn’t have in stock the one I was after specially (the flat top kabuki), and I got a few more to complement my kit. Here’s my thoughts and comparisons!

Overall, I think these brushes are great quality for the price, specially the F80 that I can’t say good enough things about. They aren’t MAC, they are different and synthetic, but they are damn good alternative and they do the job just as well for a fraction of the price. Amazing if you are a starting makeup artist building your kit, or on lower budget, or just want a load of backups that are very comparable quality wise.

I get asked a lot about affordable makeup brushes, and after much research, blog reading, and looking around, I found these by Sigma. They are much cheaper than MAC and from the pictures and reviews I seen so far, the quality is outstanding as well. I am ready to place my order as I was looking to buy the flat top brush by them, which gives your skin the airbrushed look we all want in no time.

I also decided to join their affiliate program, once I get my order I shall make a comparison post for you all I am always in need of back-up brushes! Apparently you also get a free gift if you spend as little as 30$ (with the UK exchange rate, that’s nothing!) x

There is no point on starting to do make-up tutorials without having a good look at the tools you will need to recreate the looks easily, rather than struggling with what you got.

Brushes are a great investment if you want to start doing makeup on yourself or others, because using good quality brushes makes much more of a difference than using extremely expensive makeup. (more…)
