Pardon my not-so-clean
brush. I will
do a blog on cleaning brushes with my
SIGMA SPA!
Watch our for that! :)

I have recently decided to jump
on the bandwagon and purchase my own set of Sigma makeup brushes. And though
the price of the set that I purchased – Essential Kit – is way more than I
would spend on any makeup item, I can still say it was worth every cent.
The airbrush effect
I have yet to fully test all of
the brushes in the kit – although I already know I will love each one of them.
I have, however, made full use of Sigma F50 Duo Fibre; a foundation brush. As described on the small pamphlet that came with the package: it will
work well with powder, cream, and liquid foundation, and will give you an
airbrush-like effect. Now, I don’t know how an airbrush effect would look like,
but if it is what I get after using F50 to put on foundation, then I am really
loving this airbrush-like effect they call.
It is like clouds bouncing on
your face
Okay, you got me, I have never
felt clouds bouncing on my face, but I bet it would give the same feeling as when using these brushes –specifically
the F50- for makeup. It is so soft, and
comparing it with the other drug store makeup brush brands that I used to own
[threw them all after I got my heavenly makeup brush package], this definitely is
a lot softer, lighter, and definitely ouch-free.
Nothing can get oilier
Having oily skin, I always opt to
buy compact foundations. I don’t know why, but it was what I thought I could
ONYL use. But thanks to GOSSMAKEUPARTIST, and thanks to baby J who introduced
his Youtube channel to me, I found out that I also have all the rights in this
world to use liquid foundation. And to try out a liquid foundation, I bought
REVLON COLORSTAY liquid foundation in the shade early tan (no.340). Why Revlon
Colorstay? First, it’s a lot more affordable than most liquid foundations, and
second, it is for combination or oily skin, which is how my skin is! Plus,
Wayne Goss did a quick video about great foundations for oily skin, and Revlon
Colorstay happens to be one of them. (smile smile wink wink)
The experience
The Sigma brush will totally help
make your foundation application a lot easier, and help distribute the product
evenly on the skin. It is very soft, that going back on areas of your face over
and over again will neither be painful nor irritating. It does help give a flawless
look, which makes the brush even lovelier.
Never did I need to touch up with
Revlon Colorstay foundation. And I will say it again, NEVER. Depending on the
look you want to have, you can go for medium to full coverage
with the product. It is very lightweight on the skin too! It never felt like I
was wearing foundation.
Scorecard
I will give both the Sigma Brush
and the Revlon Liquid Foundation a 7/10. I am totally in love with these two
items. And both make me feel like a pro, because the result that I get after application is REALLY great. Sometimes, you don't need great hands, you just need the right tools. At least I think.
Love note: To purchase your own Sigma brushes, you can simply go to: www.sigmabeauty.com Or you can check out the authorized retailers in your country. You can visit your local makeup stores for Revlon Colorstay foundation. Alternatively, you can visit their site (www.revlon.com) to purchase items online. :)
