Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

they’re supposedly comparable to MAC brushes. i’ve seen countless reviews on youtube for these brushes and they look pretty tempting but i’m still skeptical. i refuse to spend $500 on brushes from MAC so i’m willing to give these a try but i’d like to hear a few more reviews first.

here’s the website where you can order them if anyone’s interested: Sigma Makeup

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

I have never heard of them, but if they are meant to be as good as MAC I would definitely give them a try (and they ship worldwide). At the moment im having trouble with eye liner brushes, have used to many different kinds an actually found a lip brush is more useful :hinna:

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

^oh really? i've never used an eyeliner brush before..i just use the stick that comes with the liquid liner

I haven't tried them personally but I have watched tons of youtube videos that say that these brushes are just as good as MAC. If you haven't already invested in MAC brushes..then def. go for these..they have the same number series as MAC so you can compare the brushed. I am ordering mine today.

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

CE - have you tried MAC 266?

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

Stoppit I just checked I do, but haven't used it yet. Actually I went out and brought all new MAC brushes for my wedding and also brought the Naveeda brush set, which are just as good. I'm looking at the 266 brush and it does look pretty good. but I'm not gonna use it until after my wedding so wont know until then...... I'm weird I know :D

it's a shame sigma dont do a variety of brushes....

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

lol, keeping all the new stuff for afterwards?

i must be the only one who has not/is not doing anything like that - even clothes!

if you wet it and squeeze the sides together (to get rid of excess wetness) before you use it, you get a *really *precise line and because the bristles are more stable you can really control it. awesome for doing a flick at the ends too.

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

like I said I'm weird, Its very tempting but they look nicer sitting their in their wrappers :D I will try wetting my other brush and see how it looks, thnx.

same here..yeah i think i'll go for it. let me know how they are when you get them!

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

I have a few of those brushes marwah and they work pretty good. I would highly recommend it.

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

^which ones do you have?

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

I’ll share a trade secret. Go to this site Crown Brush

Their brushes are VERY inexpensive, and VERY good quality. MAC/Sigma, etc brushes are VERY overpriced (you’re paying for the name). Crown Brush has brushes from less than a dollar to 4 dollars each (for more basic brushes). I own several sets and use them in all of my gigs.

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

Crown brushes are quite cheap and seem good quality.

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

Do crown brushes ship worldwide?

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

^ wow CB I'm so excited right now, I feel like I'm in a candy shop :D

I've emailed them..waiting for a reply.

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

their eye shadows look very similar to Coastal scents :hmmm:

Re: Has anyone tried Sigma brushes?

you guys… all these palettes come from china and are sold by various online shops. some like coastal scents claim that they are their own.

you’re better off buying them directly from ebay; they will be cheaper and if anything is wrong you can leave negative feedback.
