Sigma Flat Kabuki Brush

I have been using this brush for several weeks now and it's quickly turning into one of my favourite brushes in my rather large collection. I have used it with variety of liquid foundations, both as an application and buffing brush, and have found it to work amazingly with all of them. When I use it to apply foundation, I find it works the best if I dot the foundation onto my face and use the brush to blend it into the skin. Long smoothing strokes work the best for achieving flawless application. It also allows for building thin layers until desired coverage is reached. I even use it for applying concealer under the eyes and nose when I'm in a rush and it works well for this too. As a buffing brush it's great for thinner waterbased foundations that you can apply with fingers first and then smooth over with the brush for seamless effect. The brush is densely packed and a nice size to allow for quick application. I can compare it to the famous Shiseido foundation brush which I love too, but due to the smaller head which makes for slower and fussier application and I generally use it for special occasions. The Sigma brush is very soft and non-irritating on my sensitive skin. I'm quite fussy about foundation brushes as the coarser ones tend to turn my skin red and just feel unpleasant after awhile. This brush is a dream to use and quite calming. For several years now my HG foundation brush has been the Real Techniques Expert Face one. For that reason I put the a Sigma brush through lots of tests and I would go as far as say it is this bit better than the RT one overall. I feel the smoothing long strokes that this brush requires work better with the face shape and bone structure and allow you to work the foubdation right into the skin in a very even and streak- free way. The end effect is flawless skin, that if you have matched your foundation correctly to your skin, should look like your skin but much much better. Also due to the densely packed hairs and bluntness of the brush, it allows me to push the minimum amount of foundation I need to cover up imperfections well into the skin for a much longer lasting finish.

This is my first Amazon review but I am so pleased I thought I would share. For years I had been applying my foundation using my hands (like rubbing on a lotion), until I started watching Youtube videos. I first tried the Real Techniques stippling and expert face brushes. I found neither of them to be good for a flawless/easy finish. After seeing lots of gurus using the Sigma Flat Top Kabuki, I searched online and saw it was a smiliar price to Real Techniques, and as it seemed to have a larger surface area, I thought I'd give it a whirl. This is by far the best tool ever purchased for foundation. It does not soak up foundation or get it caked into the bristles. It cleans almost to the good as new colour. Foundation glides onto the face which no streaking. You can lightly stipple and swirl. Bristles are sooo soft, yet hardwearing (as they do not fall out). At first I was unsure if this was the real deal as it seemed different to what I had seen online and then I real that Sigma have a trusted sellers list on their site and these guys were on there so I was very happy. Thank you so much for delivering such a great product. I highly recommend this brush and I will be investing in a set next time :)

I'd heard a lot of people rave about this brush and was hesitant about paying quite a bit for a single brush but I'm so glad I went for it! It's really simple to use (unlike a beauty blender or other sponge where you have to learn what technique works best) and it really does make my foundation look flawless. I've used this with a number of foundations and it's been great for all. I've got oily skin and it works well at getting the foundation nicely buffed in, keeping my skin matte for longer too. It washes really well, with no shedding whatsoever. I'm all for getting a good bargain but this is definitely one item worth treating yourself to.

Is not this a tall does not blind well

I bought this brush over a year ago, but have started using it more recently. It does a great job at applying your foundation, I prefer this design over the usual, flatter foundation brushes as I feel it does a better job but as it's quite large you'll need a small brush for around the nose. I've also been using some make up sponges, but found they absorb too much product compared to using a brush like this. I find it difficult to get completely clean, even with special make up brush cleaner and scrubbing device, however I'm not sure if this more to do with the foundation I use rather than the brush! It gets quite stiff after just a few uses so it needs cleaning regularly. However, most disappointingly, and the reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is that it sheds hair! It's only on one side of the brush at the moment, so it appears to be maybe an issue with the glue, but it is rather annoying and puts me off repurchasing another one which is a real shame - lots of other positive reviews so it could just be an issue with the batch when I ordered.

Sigma F80 kabuki brush has such good reviews from all the make up artists that it was a must buy for me. It's a little expensive but it's so darn worth it.... The brush doesn't eat up foundation like other brushes or blenders. And it gives the most flawless finish so easily. I don't like heavy coverage yet it gives me the finish that I desire. It's so much easier to build up as well if I am going to a party. and the best part is you don't have to be a pro to use it correctly, the brush is so amazing that it works anyways... I can go on and on and on.... lol. Love it.

This is an okay brush, thought it would be better given the hype it has got. Did not find the brush soft at all. I have other brushes I prefer to use.

Schöner weicher Pinsel F80 flat Kabuki kann ich jedem empfehlen ❤️

Great price and product

Amo os pincéis da sigma, queria repor o F82, não acho mais pra comprar, mas esse me atendeu

I really like this brush for liquid foundation, it blends really well without any streaking at all. You get a flawless finish, its better than anything (brushes or blenders) that I've used. I also find that I don't have to use a lot of foundation, it really goes a long way with this brush. I bought it mostly based on the reviews I read on here and it didn't disappoint at all. I've been using it for close a year now and it hasn't shed any hairs at all. Its held up very well. The weight of it is really nice, its not a light brush, and seems to be very well made. I would highly recommend this brush to anyone, you will fall in love with it.

Ho ordinato il F80 ma eh arrivato sbagliato arrivato il F82 bello e di qualità comunque però mi serviva il F80 ... ricomprerò più avanti speriamo mi arrivò il giusto sta volta ...
