I am such a little list maker. I mention all the time I’m Type A. [It’s like the Crossfit disease, it comes up every time I open my mouth!] So I constantly keep lists in my phone of restaurants I want to visit, lipsticks I want to swatch and makeup brands I want to try. Sigma had been on the list for years but I had been lazy and not gotten around to trying it.

I was sent some goodies a week ago to test out and after holding up at my bachelorette party and my bridesmaids legitimately telling me I had to blog these pieces, I thought it would be fun to do a brand review, as there are some great brands out there that take advantage of Brand Deals you can get online.

Sigma is known for quality makeup brushes that don’t make your wallet cry, but what made my bridesmaids tell me to blog it was the makeup. I put this makeup on at 6 a.m. on Saturday, went all day at my bachelorette party [pool included], rinsed off in the shower [was too busy to wash my makeup off], went to dinner, sinned by sleeping in my makeup and when I woke up my bridesmaids go, “HOW IS YOUR MAKEUP STILL ON?!” I laughed and told them it was a brand I was trying and they go, “Well you better blog that.” So here we are! haha.

While it’s pretty stinkin’ gross I slept in my makeup and was too busy to be bothered to reapply before dinner, something has to be said about the formulation. The lip products were my favorite. I had them on in my snapchats this weekend and there were a lot of screenshots! haha. So either y’all thought I looked ridiculous with straight hair or you were curious about the lipstick! [Let’s hope it was the lips?!] The Lovesick Lip Base was the perfect marriage of a baby pink with a darker nude and the Lip Vex glosses were so pigmented you could forego a lipstick. I used the lip base and applied Chill Out on top! And of course application allows your makeup to stay longer, so this brush I think was the reason my foundation never smudged.

My other favorite pieces out of the bunch was the Mrs. Bunny Travel Kit. I always have just thrown my makeup brushes in my makeup bag [which makes for some gross residue on my products] but this kit not only holds your existing brushes, but it also includes a mini professional collection. I got it in blue for a little something blue come wedding time [great gift idea for the bride who has “everything”]! 😉 I loved that the brushes are actually high quality. Don’t y’all find that when you use “mini travel” brushes they are pretty similar to a brush that would come in a Barbie package. haha. Just tiny and not usable at all! They don’t even blend right. These are the exact same quality as a large brush, just a mini version.

Let me know if you want to see more brand reviews so I can share my favorite pieces from their lines! I thought this would be a fun way to help you add to your “must try” lists and I’m more than happy to answer any questions you have about a brand! Because if you would have told me two weeks ago Sigma makes lip glosses I would have said, “What tha heck are you talking about?!” haha! We have to keep each other up to date, right?!

  1. I love sigma but have never tried the makeup. I bought brushes there years ago and still use a lot of them ~ especially the eye brushes. Have a great weekend!
