Sigma Professional Brush Kit Review
I was sent the Sigma professional brush kit for face and eyes a few weeks ago to try out. I waited a while before I reviewed them to see how they behaved after I used and washed them several times.
I have heard that Sigma is a brand that is popular for replicating Mac's brushes. I don’t personally own any Mac brushes, but from the research I have done they are quite the comparison.
I have had these brushes for about three weeks now. I have washed them all at least twice in Johnson and Johnson baby shampoo. With these brushes, I haven't experienced any bleeding or shedding. I don’t own any professional brushes, but compared to the drugstore brands I have you can feel these are a much higher quality.
This kit came with a pamphlet that lists all the brushes and their uses. I have been known to use one brush for every makeup application, from my eye’s to cheeks to concealer. Having this pamphlet was very helpful for me as I am a beginner with using these brushes, and applying make up the correct way.
I would recommend this kit to anyone that is looking for a professional brush kit on a budget. If you are looking for quality and affordability Sigma’s professional kit is the way to go!
