My first Sigma Brush - Flat Kabuki F80

I recently won a blog contest held by Claire and so I was sent the Sigma F80. This is my first Sigma brush so I was super excited to hear that I won. 

The size of this brush is perfect for buffing in foundation. Here it is compared to the Sonia Kashuk flat top brush. I always felt that the SK brush was a little too small, but continued to use it because I loved the finish it would give me. Now I'm going to start using it for cream blushes and I think it will be perfect for that. 
This Sigma brush has to be my all time favorite for applying foundation and I've tried a bunch, including the MAC 109 (shed too much, not dense enough), Essence of Beauty angled blush brush (absolutely love this one, but sheds a lot too), Regular flat foundation brush (too streaky and "old school" imo). I find that with this brush there is little to no waste of foundation. It's so dense that I can just pump the foundation right on to the brush, dot it on my face and then blend it in.

I love the plastic slip the brush came w/, it makes it perfect for travel and for drying. The brush is also very  comfortable in the hand. Overall I'm so impressed with this Sigma brush. Even though I have more brushes than I know what to do with, it definitely makes me want to try some of the other brushes that Sigma has to offer. 


What is your favorite Sigma brush?

Thank you so much for doing a review on this brush. I have been wanting it for awhile now. I haven't had the chance to get any Sigma brushes yet but they are definitely on my wish list. :)

When I was in the market to get a brush set, I got the Sigma 12 piece set, back in 2010, they are still pretty decent now. I really want to get the 3 or is now 4 set flat kabuki brushes.

Congrats on winning!
