Sigma Brushes Review/Haul

F80 Brush $24, synthetic brush, flat and dense, length: 6 1/4 in. (15.8 cm)

I love using the F80 brush to apply my primer and especially my foundation because it's the softest brush I've ever used! It buffs the product really well and it blends seamlessly, doesn't leave any brush streaks! I definitely get why this is highly raved and praised. I have been using all of them for a month now and I can say that this is a holy grail brush for me!

F25 Brush $33, synthetic brush, tapered and precise, length: 7 7/8 in. (20.1 cm)

I got this brush because Jaclyn Hill loves this brush and I wanted to give it a try for myself. I love using this brush for highlighters and to "bake" (basically means to let the powder set and brush off any excess after a few minutes) after I apply a concealer underneath the eyes. I love this brush because it contours to the hard-to-reach areas the only thing that bothers me is the size, it's a little bit big for my face especially if I only use it underneath my eyes, bridge of the nose, and on my cheekbones. It's really soft and I really enjoy this brush.

F82 Brush $24, synthetic brush, dense and domed, length: 6 3/16 in. (15.7 cm)

I love this brush for cream contouring! I have been looking for the perfect brush that will make cream contouring a piece of cake, and I think I found the one. I have tried this with the Anastasia Beverly Hills Cream Contour Palette and also the Make Up For Ever Ultra HD Stick Foundation, which I've been using lately. This brush makes it so much easier to blend and it does the job well because I can contour in a breeze! Definitely a holy grail. 

F40 Brush $22, synthetic brush, angled and fluffy

This brush is similar to the Angled Crown Brush that I was using previously, but the Sigma one is softer! I love using this to apply my blush. Doesn't pick up too much product and it's really easy to blend. You can also try using this to apply bronzer.

E40 Brush $16, synthetic brush, fluffy and round, length: 7 7/8 in. (20.1 cm)

I use this brush for one reason and that is to blend my eyeshadows. I love this brush because it's soft, it doesn't poke my eye, and it's easy to blend. A holy grail for me because I tried cheaper brushes and a few bucks more made the difference.

E25 Brush $14, synthetic brush, flat and wide, length: 6 1/2 in. (16.51 cm)

This brush is really similar to my MAC 217 brush, MAC 217 is slightly bigger. There's literally no difference other than the price. They are both soft and it doesn't poke my eye. I couldn't tell a difference on how well they both perform. I use this brush to apply lid colors and to blend them out as well. I would say a holy grail but I can't because I have 2 brushes that are basically the same.

E54 Brush $14, synthetic brush, flat and dense. length: 6 13/18 in. (17.07 cm)

If I want a more precise lid application I use this brush because it's more dense and is easier to pack on the color. I love this brush even more because it's perfect to apply pigments with MAC Fix Plus, my Makeupgeek Foiled Eyeshadows, and also tried this with my Urban Decay Duo chrome Eyeshadow in Tonic. I also want to try applying concealer with this brush. A definite holy grail because it's so versatile and it doesn't absorb the moisture of cream products.

I got the Mini E25 as a gift because I spent over $50, and if you spend over $50 you also get free shipping for U.S orders, for international it's free if you spend over $150. I got individual brushes instead of a set because I don't need/want some brushes in most of their sets, it is more pricey this way but cheaper than buying individual MAC brushes, and I got my brushes 20% off from the Labor Day Weekend. Shipping took about a week to a week and a half. 

 I love Sigma for the quality and for the price, it's actually what I recommend for everyone even if you're a beginner. I wish I didn't waste so much money as a teen on cheep makeup brushes, which I kept buying and buying because it wasn't that great for me and I was always looking for the perfect brushes. 

I am definitely going to buy more individual brushes from Sigma. I just bought the ones that are really essential for now. I have been wanting Sigma for so many years and never pulled the trigger til now. I know every holiday they always have a deal wether it's free shipping or percent off your purchase, so definitely keep a lookout for that!

I was originally going to post a blog about my closet organization but I'll do that tomorrow because today I didn't have time to take good pictures with good lighting. I just wanted to post something that was still helpful and informative and at the same time doesn't take too long to edit. So I hope you enjoy :)
