Sigma Beauty F87 Edge Kabuki Brush – Kabuki Foundation Brush with Angled Edge for Controlled Application, Kabuki Makeup Brush for Liquid, Cream, and Powder Products (1 Brush)

This brush feels incredibly soft on the skin, blends foundation beautifully, and does a good job getting around tough places (e.g., the nose). I have used it mainly with Lancome Teint Idole foundation and the Tarte Amazonian Clay foundation. Here are my thoughts compared to a few other brushes in my collection:Real Techniques Buffing Brush: The Sigma F80 is better for foundation. I do like the buffing brush with BB creams, but if I want to wear a foundation that is tougher to blend, the F80 is superior. I have fewer streaking issues with the F80 and I feel that I get a fuller coverage.Tarte Foundation Brush: This brush leaves a beautiful finish for the Tarte Amazonian Clay Foundation BUT it is not great for getting into crevices and smaller spaces. The F80 is a lot better. It blends flawlessly all over the face.Real Techniques Expert Face Brush: This brush is good for BB creams and tinted moisturizers but it is really prone to streaking. The F80 is definitely worth the extra cash compared to the Real Techniques brush for tougher to blend foundations like Estee Lauder Double Wear or Tarte Amazonian Clay.This brush is fairly easy to wash, though the Tarte Amazonian Clay is a bear to clean if I don't wash it right away (an issue with that foundation for ALL brushes).

Sigma F80 isn't just a brush, it's a magic wand that erases all your facial imperfections :). I finally gave into the hype about this brush because i was having some real deal problems when applying my foundation. Cheap sponges made my foundation streak horribly and my fingers didn't apply as evenly and made me look cakey. And honestly I was sick of it! So here is my story on Sigma Famazing brush!Im normally not a stickler for packaging but I was so pleased that my brush came in a nice secure bag with a plastic shaper on it. I took the brush out and closely examined and it was in perfect condition, brand spanking new. I prepped my face and dabbed on my foundation and worked the brushes magic. The feel of the brush on my face was so soft!! Within a matter of min my foundation was applied, I was so pleased that this required so little effort. I looked at the results and I literally gasped and gazed into the mirror. Perfection!! No streaks no spots, this brush gave me a flawless finish! The brush smoothed and blended my foundation so beautifully. And my foundation is pretty thick! (Mary Kay 607 Bronze) I was blown away!! Let me tell you Honey, your fingers will NEVER be able to provided you with such beautiful coverage. I will NEVER use my fingers again. Follow me in Instagram Kissmy_sashay

Love this brush! This is the 2nd one I got, the previous one lasted for years!!

I too heard about this brush from youtube video reviews of foundation, and I'm in love. I'm mostly a MAC snob and had been using their brushes, face and body foundation and primer but still wasn't happy. My combination skin is mostly in great shape, but I'v been disappointed with cakey or too watery foundations. I bought this and my new foundation (Laura Mercier silk creme foundation) and VOILA - flawless face! I then went back and tried this with my MAC as well as several wal-mart brands (cover girl, revlon, etc.) and they look great. Using a stippling effect achieves a great, semi-airbrushed look. Blends concealer and creme blushes/highlighters/contours amazingly. My favorite part is that you can use the brush lightly damp or with facial mist and blend out any areas that are too thick or need blending. I did this part way through the day at work to freshen up and was very pleased.I have to confess that I have a facial hair problem due to very aggravating disorder that drives me nuts. So nuts that I have to shave every day before I leave the house. This is not fun for a woman! Anyway, I am paranoid about being out and having a stubble show through late in the day, and this brush combined with the right foundation (and stippling!) buys me a lot of time. My girlfriends, my fiance and even my very "man's man" brother commented on how great and model-ish my face looked just last night.Even if you have perfect skin I recommend this brush. Better than my other 3 foundation brushes, probably because of the shape and density of the bristles. Not a bad price either. I have used this on friends as well, equally amazing response.

I have owned several of these brushes over the years - I've tried other brushes by MAC, It Cosmetics, Make Up Forever, and other premium brands, as well as drugstore brands but I keep returning to this one because it applies my foundation so well and is the perfect size and shape. No streaks, even application, and fast to apply. I do have an issue after a year or so where the bristles start falling out so that is why I rated 4 instead of 5. I will continue to reorder when the time comes.
