A kabuki love-affair (lol!)
Hello there my dear readers!
While I am a long-time makeup lover and beauty enthusiast, I am just beginning to delve into the usage of
professional quality makeup brushes for makeup application. Anyone else out there like me in that regard?
I mean, I have a scattered assortment of some higher end brushes from lines like MAC, Bobbi Brown, and Smashbox. But, for the most part, my brush collection consists of drugstore/inexpensive brushes. I just haven't been able to bring myself to the point just yet of investing in a full set of professional brushes. I mean, can you imagine the cost of a full set of MAC or Bobbi Brown makeup brushes??? OMG, I just wouldn't be able to afford that, nor could I justify the expense when there are less expensive brushes on the market. Because, lets face it, while I am cosmetically inclined, I am not a professional makeup artist.
So, with that said, you can see why I am so excited about finding out about the
Sigma line of makeup brushes!!! This line delivers extremely good quality professional caliber makeup brushes. According to everything I have read online or heard on YouTube, these brushes are totally comparable to higher end brands like MAC, but at a fraction of the cost! I would describe these as "mid price" brushes. They are not "cheap", but they are not expensive either. They seem to be a great value for a reasonable price.
Now, don't get me wrong, I still LOVE all my drugstore/inexpensive brushes. These have served me well for so many years. My collection of brushes is from brands like
Ecotools, e.l.f.,
Essence of Beauty, Ulta, Sephora brand, and
SpaResource. I will continue to use all of those! But, as I continue to "build" my brush collection, I would love to start adding some real professional caliber brushes from the Sigma brush line as I know those quality brushes will last me forever and will be a pleasure to use!
So, now, on to the review for the
