PRO Makeup Artists' Favorite Sigma Brushes

 When it comes to brush recommendations, who can we rely on more than the professionals? Professional makeup artists work with multiple faces, test hundreds of products and build up a long-lasting list of favorites, solidifying them as some of the most knowledgeable sources in the industry. We put our trust in them to share their expertise and they deliver. Here are some of our favorite mentions!

 

F82 ROUND KABUKI™ BRUSH

 

Kelsey Deenihan: Celebrity makeup artist to Selena Gomez, Hailee Steinfeld and Millie Bobby Brown.

 

Kelsey Deenihan’s Secret Weapons: “Using the Sigma F82 Round Kabuki, she buffs in a thick coat of mattifying moisturizer before applying any makeup.”

F80 FLAT KABUKI™ BRUSH

Lisa Eldridge: Celebrity makeup artist to Dua Lipa, Rosie Huntington Whiteley and Kiera Knightley.

 

Lisa Eldridge on Getting Camera-Ready: “Using the F80 Flat Kabuki, Eldridge likes to apply foundation in thin layers, building up coverage only where needed. A flat kabuki brush blends bases seamlessly.”

F03 HIGH CHEEKBONE HIGHLIGHTER™ BRUSH

Carissa Ferrier: Celebrity makeup artist to Gina Rodriguez, Annette Benning, and Alexis Ren

"The Sigma Beauty F03 High Cheekbone Highlighter Brush is great for your highlighter, but I almost always use it for contouring the hollows of the cheek and around the perimeter of the face. The bristles are both fluffy but firm, making it ideal to deposit color and blend."

 E06 WINGED LINER™ BRUSH

Tomy Rivero: New York-based makeup artist known for his Fashion Week looks

“Don’t underestimate the power of eyeliner...A strong clean, even line makes your look more awake and put together and it takes two minutes. Most days that’s all I recommend to my clients for everyday looks around the house and office.” 

The angled tip of this brush makes application easy-peasy, even if you have a toddler clutching your leg. What’s more, it doubles as a brow brush, filling in as needed with not-too-much feathery strokes. If you want to get really fancy, get another one and use it for a statement lip. The point works perfectly at making sure lipstick stays in the corner of your mouth, and not smeared like you just ate a cherry popsicle.

Scary Mommy, Yelena Moroz Alpert June 19, 2020

Film and television makeup artist Kat Bardot also says Sigma's E06 Winged Liner Brush is a must. "No one makes anything like it," she tells Allure. "It is the best for precision liner." She also likes to drag it through brow powder to paint individual hair strokes that mimic the look of microblading.

E25 BLENDING BRUSH

 

Christopher Ardoff: Editorial makeup artist

 

"This brush is great for blending in the crease or socket of the eye," Ardoff says. “[It] helps to distribute product densely and evenly…[and is] great for softening and blending in areas where you would require a smaller brush."

 E30 PENCIL BRUSH

 

Ardoff also uses this brush "for buffing and softening either cream or pencil eyeliner” and for applying eyeshadow on top of eyeliner for an even bolder look.

F25 TAPERED FACE BRUSH

 

Julianne Kaye: Celebrity makeup artist to Dove Cameron and Karimah Westbrook

 

“I love the tapered shape of this brush...I can use it for highlighting, setting powder, under the eyes, and contouring.”
