Sigma Performance Eyes Kit

Hello



When Luxola.com were having a 30% off sale, i took the chance to purchase my favourite Brand of brushes. I bought the Sigma Performance Eyes kit for less than $49 with the 30% off.

Here is a few comparison of a few brushes from the Mr Bunny collection and the Performance Eyes Kit








My Overall thoughts:
Sigma brushes has naver fail me in terms of softness and durability. I have been using Sigma since over a year and a half ago and its still in good shape. No shedding or bleeding or fraying. This brush is no exception and the size of the brushes are perfect for my small eyes when i really want that precise application or blending especially in my crease. I am really happy that i got this kit and even happier when i get to purchase it at less than $49! I would reccomend this kit irregardless of eye shapes or sizes as Sigma brushes are good in general.

So what are your favorite brands for brushes?

I hope you like my minor thoughts on these brushes..
