Review :: Sigma Flat Top Synthetic Kabuki - F80 & Giveaway(CLOSED)!

So i wanted to rave about one of my most favorite face brushes that i've been using for many, many, many months and have featured on a few of my monthly favorite posts. 

it's no secret - it's the Sigma Flat top synthetic kabuki, best known as the F80 brush. 

the description from the Sigma beauty website:
"This Exclusive flat top synthetic kabuki was designed to deliver a flawless makeup application. The Sigma Makeup F80 is a buffer brush that can be used to blend powder or liquid products. The short and dense bristles make it easy to buff your liquid foundation. The long handle adds comfort to your makeup application. The synthetic fibers are ideal to be used with liquid products and can be easily cleaned. Made of Synthetic Sigmax HD filament"

you can find this product here:

Here are some pictures of the Brush:

doesn't it just look SO soft?!


this could be yours! :)


I absolutely love this brush. it NEVER has shed on me, ever! and the way it blends does exactly what it's supposed to - deliver a flawless makeup application. makes my liquid foundation blend like a dream onto my skin and looks airbrushed! 

i've used this for liquid foundation and some thicker foundations and all same outcome - an amazing flawless looking face!

I actually have used this in most pictures - here's a recent one of me when i've used it :D don't know if you can tell, but the foundation i used applied with the Sigma F80 was flawless :)

on to the review:

Packaging: 4.5/5
I absolutely love how creative Sigma is, putting their single brushes in this type of  this bag as well as a pamphlet on the items inside. Also love how it comes with it's own brush guard type protector so the bristles will not get ruined! so i gave it a 4.5 out of 5.


Quality: 4/5
I think you get your best bang for your best buck. these are such decent priced brushes that ultimately gives you what it's meant to do - flawless application. no streakiness or blotchiness - straight flawless! that's my thoughts on this.

Usage: 3.5/5
Very easy to use,  a pain in the rear to clean/wash. the bristles are SUPER dense that if you were to hand wash these they'd take more than overnight to dry. even if you have a brush guard on them.. they'd still be damp and the bristles splayed all over the place. otherwise super easy to use the brush when it's clean and ready to be used.

Overall 4/5
I think this is an amazing brush for those that don't have anything quite like it. i have a stippling brush and let me tell you - it's NOT the same... i absolutely love mine so much that i'm going to be giving 1 away to 1 lucky winner! the best part of this brush is that it's not so heavy, not too short, but the handle is just perfect for perfecting the blending on the face lol.

but anywho.. on to the giveaway!!

  1. Thanks for hosting this giveaway! I've been wanting to try this brush for awhile. My favorite Sigma brush is the F30, their large powder brush. It's super soft but dense. I love it for "pushing" loose powder into my skin.

    My favorite brush from Sigma would be the F80 brush because it is very soft, and it blend the foundation easily. Would not mine win another one. Thank you for the giveaway.
