Brunette Beauty

Packaging: Both kits are packaged the same. There is a short and wide box with a flip out lid. Inside is 3 levels of a base with elastic loops, 2 connectors and two smaller sized bases with pink U shaped snaps. The snaps have various sizes to hold different brush widths. This is easily disassembled for easy and compact storage. Usage: Two towers hold up to 92 brushes when side-by-side.   Two towers hold up to 68 brushes when combined. The pink  snaps securely holds each brush handle in place and don't remove any paint from the brush handle. The elastic bands are very tight and small so I had a little trouble initially getting brush handles through but with a few uses this isn't an issue. However they have great pressure on the bristles to re-shape them upside down while quickly and efficiently removing water from every bristle. After 8 hours, my brushes come out like new; dry and reshaped as originally intended. Face...

These are the brushes in my opinion that aren't essential but for someone who loves their makeup and wears it everyday will benefit from these. I also think these would be used more by someone who has a larger variety of makeup. I suggest to always see the brush in person otherwise you will become disappointed. Feel it, play with it on your face. Test to see how it would work for what your after. Remember the denser a brush is the more it's going to pick up. The fine the tip the more precise application of colour. I think the quality and seamless of your makeup is a lot to do with the quality of your brushes. Cheap, average brushes won't provide you with the same application as mid range priced brushes. Basically you get what you pay for. A Chanel brush is the top end of the spectrum and may often then not be over priced and very similar to mid range priced brushes. I also want to mention that what specific brushes work for me may not for you. There are different len...

Since moving house, I have been into sorting things out and finding the most efficient and basic ways  to do and store things. So getting back to basics - what is really needed. This extended into my makeup and filtering what is the minimal amount of brushes needed for a usual face of makeup also the ones I have recommended. I am in no way a professional, I just wanted to share.  I suggest to always see the brush in person otherwise you will become disappointed. Feel it, play with it on your face.

Packaging: Thick black wooden handles with holographic writing and a silver fennel. They are individual brushes with synthetic fibres. Formula/ Texture: These are extremely soft and dense - I can't stop touching them!! They are synthetic fibres meaning they are all perfect for liquid/ cream products. I feel like the thicker handle makes the brush easier and more comfortable to hold compared to a typical foundation brush. F80 Flat Kabuki This is my favourite for applying and blending foundation. The flat picks up the even amount of product across the brush and distribute it evenly. F82 Round Kabuki Perfect for applying and buffing in mineral products. F84 Angled Kabuki Perfect for applying and buffing cream blush/bronzer products. F86 Tapered Kabuki Perfect for those smaller contours of the face such as around the nose, under eye and hollow of the cheek. They are easy to clean with baby shampoo, fully dry even deep,...

Packaging: This is a brush roll with elastic loops that the bristles sit in to speed up the drying time of the brushes in 4-6hrs. The Dry'n Shape is made out of this synthetic plastic that feels velvety with the label branded on the outside. It opens to a try fold with different sized elastic loops along the top and brush pockets along the bottom.  There are two magnetic clasps on the right side of the roll that helps keep the roll in shape when turned around in a circle so it can stand up. Results: The idea is to but the bushes into the loops going from the top pulling it all the way so the bottom of the bristles sit inline with the bottom of the loop. Here's a 3 step guide to using the Dry 'n Shape. STEP 1:  Wash your brushes using a mild shampoo or brush cleanser. STEP 2:  Gently press the bristles to remove any excess water. Place the clean, damp brushes into the Dry’n Shape using the smallest b...

Packaging The kit comes in this cute square cardboard box with the list of brushes included on the side. There are four different "sets" each with their own colour that is reflected on the outside packaging  with the little rabbit/mouse like cartoon. This kit is $109 available from sigma beauty.com with reasonable shipping rate & price to Australia. The container is more of a hot pink round tube. It comes in two parts; a top & bottom container which I separate into face & eye brushes. The container snaps together by the two snaps either side of the contains. The material feels like synthetic leather and is very thick card or some sort of plastic. I love this container. Not only can it be used in every day life by having the two separate containers to store brushes, it also is travel friendly, portable, sturdy, easy to clean, keeps the inside dry (water proof) & durable. Pretty much all you need for your brushes, an all-in-one. The bru...
