  • n btw i luvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv­vvvvvvv ur hair xx

  • i wud chek out ya twitter bt dnt hav one n far from gettin one bt ill chek out ur bog - adie x

  • i was looking on the site to buy these, but the names of the brush set with the roll for $99 arent ss... they start with an E and are smaller numbers like the angled brush was the E05. My question is are they the same and just renamed??

  • omg i just noticed we have the SAME glasses :D

  • Fantastic review, I have now just bought the 15 brush set myself to try for £98 xx

  • Do you still like the sigma brushescc

  • Which shade of ColorStay do you have? I'm at least as light as you are if not lighter, and I recently bought it in 110 Ivory, but I haven't tried it out yet.

    I'm having a hell of a time trying to find a full-coverage liquid foundation that matches my skintone!

  • the eye thing is bad bad bad take is off old school

  • Keep up the good video work looking good. When you have time come visit my channel!

  • You're so funny! :) & you're so pretty!

  • i'm going to buy this brush kit.... thanks for helping me to decide... p.s your aye color is amazing... ;)) i'm a fan

  • I watched the whole video...lol. I love you! I

  • I love your hair color and eyes! I also like your heart neckalce =) Thanks for the review because im thinking about purchasing these brushes! Thnx much xoxox

  • The one that you've all been waiting for... the SIGMA SS187!!!!

  • I really think that Sigma brush is the one ordered from Crown brush and put a name on the handle. The only difference besides having a Sigma name is that it juggled the price 3 times or more. The quality really is not that impressive at all.

  • i guess this is an old review of the sigma brushes cause now the brushes are different, the duo fiber brush for example is now much smaller. I wasn't impressed with that brush. While I do like their brushes for the price, I wish they would stop messing with a good thing. I still like my mac brushes better, yes they're more expensive but u get what u pay for.

  • what do you mean by a hooded lid?....please explain :)

  • Great review! I don't understand why so many people are against giving another brand a try? Really now, how many hundreds or thousands of dollars have we wasted on products we didn't actually like or use? The price of these brushes is well worth giving them a shot. Thanks!

  • I really loved your review, I like how you go into depth instead of worrying about "how long" your video is and trying to cut parts out and not go past "10" minutes. I appreciate this review and just purchased my complete sigma brush set with brush roll in pink. I can't wait to get these! I was so into buying Mac brushes but with the prices like that, I just can't see a wood handle with bristles being worth $25-45 it's insane. So I gave up on that and watched many reviews and purchased 'em!

  • I like your hair like this the best.

  • Omg... I think u are the most adorable girl ever... I couldnt stop starring at ur skin and ur review is awesome, all the information u have provided has helped me make a decision to purchase the complete kit in the pink... Thank you again for taking the time to make this review i also love ur blog very helpful.. Pleez checkout my first review on the toofaced pixie perfect collection

  • I agree the Sigma ss150 is so perfect, even compared to the real MAC 150.

    I love it.

  • why does sigma give you e.l.f quads in this? are they ran by the same company or something but under different names?

  • are you sponsored by the company?

  • Hi, just wanted to say, "Great job" on reviewing the Sigma brush set, and giving a great critique too!

  • you have gorgeous eyes! and thanks for this review :)

  • this seems like a really good review! im totally subscribing.... though, im wondering why they would also send out some elf eyeshadow, are they by the same company?

  • hey i just ordered these brushes n cant wait for them to arrive..quick question do i wash them before i use them wen i first get them??

  • you were so much help i just ordered my first sigma brush set ever! first brush set at all actually :D hope its as wonderful as youre describing! thanks!

  • Where did you get your palette?

  • ima get me some brushes!

  • YOUR REVIEW WAS SO HELPFUL..

  • the ss252 is bullshit. i tried to use it to blend a cream product on a client and ALLLLLLLLLLL of the hairs started dragging out and they were all over her lids. and now that its so sparse, its useless

  • i think its totally fair to compare sigma brushes to mac holiday sets - if ppl say "oh but its not fair, theyre not as good quality" well.. then it should be!!! you pay a big price tag u should get a good quality, special set or no... i dont understand how ppl could say its unfair when theyre still brushes, with a mac logo (and price tag!) so either mac should up their game and not be so sloppy with xmas sets, or sigma should keep on beating them (: xxx

  • 3:34 i have the same necklace

    target

  • I just ordered it! I can't wait for my brushes! Ive never had any since ive been too picky and cheap but these sound amazing. I just bought the eye set since i apply my foundation byy hand im not sanitary.

  • you're not a weirdo, you're just passionate about products that you like! I totally get it! i love your look, love the "natural look" makeup

  • i LOVE your haircuts!

  • i actually got these brushes about 2 weeks ago and i luuuuuuuurve most of them... i don't really use the foundation brush and i wish the 275 and the 187 were more dense... as for the rest of them, i think they are perfect... i kinda wish this kit included a full size 217 cause it's my favourite mac brush :) also i really, really love the brush roll and i can fit some more brushes in it...

  • I am getting them today...I was abit hesitant to buy them, so I decided to check to if u had a review and offcourse u do...I trust ur opinion and value it alot so I am goin to place my order right now..thanx Cora...

  • hi! are the travel size sigma brushes the same quality as the regular size ones???

  • nope, I have had the sigma travel size brushes for a couple of months, and they're not very good at all a lot of bleeding and shedding issues.

  • @erieli1305 Yes they are very good quality =)

  • The colours of your lips are gorgeous! What are you wearing?

  • Does anyone know where the letters SS stand for?

    & How much brushes are there in the upcoming advanced kit? :D

    Thanks,

  • The Sigma company is owned by a lady named Simone. I'm thinking it's her initial and the company name. I'm not sure though :)

  • @Nicolistol

    SS=Sigma shopping :)

  • Youre eyes are absolutely GORGEOUS! and i just bought these today for my birthday!!! and im soooo excited to get them!

  • love it

  • This video made me have to buy these brushes thanks so much!!

  • I recently ordered the complete set it pink & I can't wait to feel how soft they are! =)

  • noo your soo not a dorrk i love that little paragraphh t00

  • i guess the SE brushes are mass produced and are all synthetic whereas the full size brushes are made normally. you can't really compare the sigma brushes to the holiday sets because the holiday sets aren't good quality at all. you have to compare them to the full size mac brushes to get the full effect.

  • LOVE your hair here!

  • this hair cut and color was my favorite on you!! rlly beautiful girl

  • Awesome review!!! :D I love it. very indepth. Love it! Thanks :D I subbed :D

  • very good. ty so much :)

  • I bought my mac holiday kit and my sigma brush kit around the same time, and my mac set was a waste of money. I LOVE the sigma brushes. Not to mention the mac 187 leaves bristles on my face every time that i use it! I literally have to go in with tweezers and pick em all off my face. My sigma never does that. Sigma is my preferred brand, hands down!

  • yeah, I'm pretty darn mad at myself for blowing all that money on MAC holiday brushes. Live and ya learn, and I do like SOME of my MAC holiday brushes

  • the mac 252 from the holiday collection is AWFUL!! it hurts so much to use.

  • @vintageortacky Can I jump in here, I have learned thru trial and error not to buy any of MAC's holiday brush sets, they are not the same as their regular brushes, they're mostly crap, their regular brushes are great and they also cost a lot more unlike the holiday sets which are cheaper priced and cheaper quality. Thats why I now go to the store to see what they have instead of buying online where u really cant see and feel the quality.

  • @313blonde never get their brush sets because theyre handmade from china. theyre not made me good quality material (thats why there so cheap compare to the regular handled ones) SE brushes arent good at all..

    and sigma brushes suck so i dont what this chick is talking about.

  • @AiCAP9289 *NOT HANDMADE*

  • @AiCAP9289 Dude what is your problem? Seriously calm down. If you don't like them then don't leave a comment on a video about Sigma brushes. They are very good quality. I love their full sized brushes and their travel kit in Naughty in Black. You sound like a "brand" type of girl. Just because the brushes aren't MAC does not mean that they are not good quality. Just because you pay more for something doesn't mean the quality will come with the price.

  • @Sauske20 uh dude... i wasnt talking about sigma brushes i was talking about mac brushes travel sized brushes because she said she hated them and so what if i like brand named items? sigma sucks for copying mac -- and i am calm sweetie.. actually i can say whatever i want about sigma brushes because they do suck! many gurus just say good things about them to get free things.. uh so sweetie dont read too hard  and assume things.

  • @AiCAP9289 Sigma just made affordable brushes for people who do not want to spend a whole lot of money on makeup brushes. Sigma is very good quality. You are one of those sad people who believe that there is no better brand that MAC. Stop saying that something so good is bad when it truly isn't. You may not mind wasting your money on MAC brushes but a lot of people have chosen Sigma because it is so much cheaper. But of course there are always those haters and negative people out there.

  • @Sauske20 actually i dont use just mac -- i use drug store products too. im not negavtive its just funny how they copied mac and put them out like theyre like macs. good for you if you like sigma brushes - i prefer sonia kashuk brushes and theyre not even expensive. quit acting like you know me. geez! you must get your feelings hurt quick because why are you stickin up for sigma ?! its my opinion and i THINK THEY SUCK BECAUSE I BOUGHT THEM AND HATED THEM! im not the only one who hates them btw

  • @AiCAP9289 Everyone's needs are different when it come's to make-up and make-up brushes, obviously they did not meet your needs, good for you.

    But they met her needs nicely, so she has every right to stick up for a product that she is passionate about, I would do the exact same thing.

  • Gorgeous blue eyes girl!! thanks for the awesome review!

  • your so mean to yourself

  • omg i just recieved my sigma makeup travel kit in nice in pink today... im SO in love.. i never thought that the kind of brush u use affects the way your makeup looks so much... i had to come and thank you for introducing me to simga brush is so thank you so so so so much :)

  • ; )

  • You had said you do not like the Mac #224 brush.... you MUST try the smashbox #10 crease brush. It is AMAZING for blending, and is one of my favourites! and It's not too pricey either!

  • i just got my sigma brush set!! ddnt try it yet but so far so good! =) i didnt get any elf pallette tho =( disaster

  • Ur skin looks flawless, what brand of foundation do you use? Is it MAC & if so which ones?

  • It's either MAC's Studio Fix Powder or MAC's Mineralize skin finish Natural in "light"

  • Thanks & thanks for getting back to me so soon, I will look into it for my complexion!!

  • You are super cute. Thanks for the hair dryer warning! I've been thinking of drying my big brushes with it.

  • WOW! this was soooo helpful! thnx so much! oh and ur not a weirdo ur like uber cool!! xxxxx

  • You look absolutely beautiful! and I love your necklace! I so need to get these brushes I'm about due for sum. Thanks a bunch! xoxo

  • I really wanna start makin videos but I soooo lack the confidence! Would you happen to have any advice for me? LoL I feel weird askin u this but u are by far my fave. Guru and u just seem soooooo sweet! Great videos keep up the good work! :)

  • I say just be yourself. that's always served me well, lol. Try to interact as much as you can with your viewers, and try to put a lot of thought into your videos.

  • Hahahaha u got me super excited and wanting these brushes!!!! I really hope I win them! :)

  • glasses are hott on you

  • I was wondering when you were going to do the giveaway for the brushes =] ?? I would love to look into that i need brushes!! haha

  • I have one going now. check out my traincase video

  • In november Im going to a school for makeup art, I will be getting like kits and brushes there. but ALL of my brushes right now are so bad, and I've been thinking of getting a new brush kit. would you suggest waiting till november for the kit from my school? or just buying the sigma kit?

  • honestly you can never have enough makeup brushes!

  • I gotta say, I really like your videos, you get to the point, you aren't boring to listen to, and, I don't know, you're just fun to watch, not to mention cute ;) lol.

    I literally have one, unbranded, brush, I need to buy brushes, not to mention make up, I love that you made a brush video im always wondering what kind I need to buy and whats the best prices and all.

    THANKS

  • i love the end...hehe!!!!!!!!!1

  • where can u get these brushes...?

  • dont mind the critics they jez cant do nutz with their lyf!! i luv the review it helps me not to get a mac brush for now but then save up to get those sigma brushes instead thanks!

  • this is great because ive been looking for a cheaper dupe to MAC. It cost SO much to get quality brushes. lol Ill be ordering these sigma brushes ^_^

  • great! thanks! :)

  • Thanks for the great review. I have been wanting these brushes but was kind of on the fence about them. Now I know I need to get them. I love my MAC eye brushes but can not justify spending so much on their face brushes.

    I stroke my brushes too. Don't feel like a freak.

  • i know what you are saying but are the sigma brushes made of real hair like mac?

  • Some are made of synthetic, but most are made of natural hairs. Same thing with mac, some synthetic, some natural

  • just so you know, most of your viewers watch you in hd now... so the info box isnt to your left/right anymore... its under you!! =D

  • i LOVE your hair it looks very pretty :)

  • your hair seriously looks soooo good in the video

  • ur videos r amazing

  • love your hair this darker tone.. uber sexy!

  • did u do ur makeup using those brushes

  • yes.

  • I must say, AGAIN, that i looove your hair right now! I think I want to be a copycat and do that color!!! I've colored my hair different shades or red for like EVER, and i've tried to a darker undertone/lighter highlight on myself before but it never really works out how i like it.... do you do your hair on your own? If so, can you pleeeeease do a tutrial or explanation on how???

    <333

  • I'm writing a blog post right now for the video I'm uploading (invisible makeup) and in that blog post I mention what I use.

    you're so amazingly gorgeous. keep up the awesome videos. :)

  • Your hair looks so pretty. It looks amazing on you.

    <3

  • i have the set as well and the ss252 i ALWAYS get confused with my mac 242. and the ss275 i use to contour my nose. i love the ss239 more than the mac 239. and the ss250 is my fav! its sooo soft

  • Thanks very much for a fabulous review on these brushes, I have been thinking of ordering but I wasn't sure but now I'm sold. LOL

    Thanks again

  • i like how your hair looks!!!

  • Best review of sigma brushes I've seen.

    I love how you thoroughly explained everything instead of just saying "I love it." haha.

    I'm DYING to try the SS187. I've heard it does a really great job of giving that "airbrushed" foundation look.

    Thanks for the review!!

    -Nicole.

  • thank you sweetie!

  • I love your hair!

  • you did a really good editing job... other than the difference in your looks... I wouldnt be able to tell you ever stopped talking

  • I love you hair this color, but I loved it so much red! You always look great!

  • haha, i laughed so much when i saw ur expression when i said you shouldn't use a hair dryer on ut brushed! ;)

  • lovin the hair

  • To me, a brand is just a detail :) I'm not underestimating MAC products, I can't talk about it, actually. But what I do give importance to is quality AND price. I'm not rich and in my reality, I'd rather pay less and get quality, which I've had success in doing so far :)

    Thanks for the review, I'd love to try out Sigma brushes.

    xxoo

  • exactly, and, as an added bonus, these brushes are super professional and look and feel sort of like MAC brushes!
