BEST. BRUSH. EVER!!!I'm a big fan of both Sigma and the original F80, but this new one is AMAZING. I probably own close to 100 or so face and eye brushes, and this is hands down my favorite. I watched the video showing how this can be used for basically everything on your face, so I decided to test it that way. First I applied my liquid foundation (GORGEOUS!), then concealer, then setting powder, then bronzer, then blush and finally highlighter, which I normally would use several different brushes for. I couldn't believe how beautiful everything looked. This brush looks similar to the original F80, but it's much lighter and not as dense and made everything blend SO beautifully and smooth. It says it's for a light to medium coverage, but if you prefer a fuller coverage, don't be scared off by that - the coverage is there. I see the words "airbrush finish" all over the place, but this is truly the first and only brush I've seen that delivers on that promise. Even though it looked great, I will probably continue to use a different brush for my concealer just because I have really bad dark circles and need more precision. But other than that, this will make application SO much easier. I never thought I'd say this about a brush, but I seriously think this gives a finish and has a versatility that's on par with a Beauty Blender - no exaggeration. This is absolutely worth every penny, so if you're looking for a really versatile brush that's of unbelievable quality, you've found it!

Versatile BrushI purchased this brush approximately 1 month ago, but wanted to use it for a good month before writing a review. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this brush with my cushion foundation... powder foundation... and definitely cream/compact foundation; however, I prefer the regular F80 with my liquid foundation, for sure. Only because I find it buffs and blends better when using liquid. I had to work a bit harder to get my liquid foundation to blend well with this one (at first it was a bit streaky). I also tried this brush to apply blush and bronzer, and it does a really nice job!! To me, the brush feels a bit more scratchy than the other Sigma brushes, but not in an uncomfortable way (it's just that most of the other brushes are VELVETY soft!). I sincerely recommend this brush. Nice job, Sigma!

Great brushThis foundation brush works very well for me. I like that it covers my face with foundation and doesn’t give me the “cake face look.” I use medium coverage foundation and then cover all my problem areas with cream concealer. This brush is very soft, works the best by buffing on foundation. I tried stippling but it didn’t work that way for me as well as buffing. It cleans easily and doesn’t soak up your Foundation. I haven’t tried it with powder foundation but I am sure it will work just fine. It is a little smaller then the original flat kabuki brush but works just as well, or in my opinion, better. Highly recommend.

Best foundation brush I have tried!This brush is soft and blends foundation so effortlessly. I have tried the ABH A30, the regular F80, the Marc Jacobs Face III brush, the Morphe M439, and many other foundation brushes. This one is by far my favorite. I can’t stand scratchy foundation brushes. I also always go in with a makeup sponge after blending my foundation with a brush just to make sure it’s perfect. With this brush, I barely need the sponge because the brush blends cream products so well and so quickly. My only complaint is that it takes a long time to dry. I bought 2 so I always have a dry one to use. I’m going to buy 2 more while these beauties are on sale.

Best Brush for Combination ApplicationI'm a long-time sigma brush user so I just had to give this new one a try. My review is I'm a long-time sigma brush user so I just had to give this new one a try. My review is based on the brushes performance using liquid (Estee Lauder Double Wear) foundation. I was looking for a brush that would provide a light to medium coverage to my cheeks, ,forehead and sides of my face (as I need full coverage on my T Zone and chin I use the F80 flat there). This brush is basically a lighter less dense version of the F80 with the bristle length being the same as the F80. I am so far well pleased with the Air 80's performance. I applied foundation to my entire face using the Air 80 and switched to the F80 for the additional coverage where needed. The Air80 gave a streak free well blended natural finish. The bristles are very soft and easy to clean as all the duo's are. If you need a combination finish like me (full coverage in some areas - light to medium in other's) this brush is well worth buying.
What's the difference between f80 air flat kabuki and f80 flat kabuki brush?

Great question!
The F80 Flat Kabuki is one of our best-sellers and has a dense and flat brush head. This will give you a buffed foundation application that will help you to blend in liquid or cream products onto flat areas of the face. You will achieve medium to full coverage.

Can I use this brush to cream contour? Is there a more recommended brush for creme contouring?
Asked by: Katie
This brush works beautifully with cream products, but specializes in buffing product all over the face, not blending out specific areas! I recommend our F84- Angled Kabuki for a natural finish of cream contour. For a more defining contour, the F77- Chisel and Trim brush works beautifully!

Which brush would you recommend to use for mineral powder foundation? Coverage would range from light to heavy depending on the occasion. Thanks!
Asked by: Allie
The F80-Air is amazing with liquids but doesn't provide the most even coverage for powders. I recommend our F82-Round Kabuki, as the dense bristles pick up the makeup beautifully and applies it evenly. This brush is great for building up coverage!

I want full coverage finish with liquid foundations. Which foundation brush should I buy ? Can I buy thro amazon ? Also which brush for concealer ?
Asked by: Fashionista
Hello,
Please see below for our recommendations for full coverage foundation brushes:
F80 Flat Kabuki™: The dense and flat head of this brush will give you a buffed foundation application. We recommend using this brush to blend liquid or cream products onto flat areas of the face such as the forehead and cheeks for medium to full coverage.
F69 Foundation: The firm and slightly tapered flat head of this brush will give you a smooth foundation application. We recommend using this brush to apply liquid or cream products such as foundation and primer for medium to full coverage.
For concealer:
F79 Concealer Blend Kabuki™: The tapered brush head will be best used when stippling concealer and color-correction products. We recommend using this with cream, liquid or powder products for medium to full coverage.
4DHD™ Kabuki: The pointed, 4-sided kabuki will give you detailed concealer blending. We recommend using this brush to diffuse concealer under the eye, on spots, crevices and scars for medium to full coverage.
Please note, you can purchase our products on Amazon!

Hello, I would like to know if you intend to release a black/copper F80 air flat kabuki brush? Also, I want to buy a foundation brush as a gift for my sister: which brush is the best for liquid foundation between F80, F50 and F60?
Asked by: Laura
Hello Laura,
We will not be releasing an F80 Air Flat Kabuki™ brush in Copper/Black as we are discontinuing the Copper versions of our brushes.
As for which brush is best, we would highly recommend the F80 Flat Kabuki™ brush for applying liquid foundation. The dense and flat brush head will give a buffed foundation application that will be best used on the flat areas of the face in a circular motion. This brush gives medium to full coverage, so it is buildable.
