Is SigMagic Scrub worth it?

The SigMagic is Sigma's latest invention. This Sigma Spa® gadget plus brush cleanser features firm-hold suction cups for hands-free washing, and the vented lid allows product to dry and stay germ-free. This brush cleanser is made using 100% natural virgin coconut and ethically sourced palm oil. This antimicrobial formula prevents growth of bacteria for up to 2 weeks after use.

Personally, I find this tool easy enough to use and leaves my brushes cleaner and softer than usual. At $19, the SigMagic is affordable. I would definitely recommend it for makeup artists or anyone who has a large collection of brushes.

Sigma Beauty has 15% off Sigma coupon and other deals for 2018.



Any artists out there? I've been experimenting with makeup brush tools for my paint brushes. I'll post an update soon!

Sigma 3DHD Max Kabuki Brush Review

The Sigma 3DHD Max Kabuki is a kabuki brush that provides a precise foundation application. It is the larger and fuller version of Sigma Beauty's 3DHD Kabuki brush. This dimensional foundation brush offers the same precision of the original, with edges that fit into every curve, crease and angle of the face. In this maximized version, you’ll get a more sheer foundation finish – buildable to your desired coverage.

Use this cruelty free brush to apply liquid, cream, or powder products to your face.

Sigma Beauty 3DHD Blender Review

Sigma's latest 3DHD™ Blender has been constantly sold out in stores and on sigmabeauty.com - and for good reasons. The 3DHD™ Blender, patent pending and inspired by Sigma's 3DHD® brushes, features uniquely angled edges that reach every contour of the face with ease. This blending sponge can be used to prime, conceal, sculpt and highlight liquids, creams and powders for high-definition skin.



I remember the day when the Beauty Blender seemed like such an innovative and unique tool. Then came all the different shapes from different brands. Now, we have the Sigma 3DHD Blender, which has all the edges worked out. I can't believe this was not discovered sooner. You can really get into all the grooves and angles of the face. I really enjoy working with the 3DHD Blender and can see it being especially useful to work on clients or those with angled faces or sharp features.

Sigma Baking and Strobe Brush Set - Worth it?

The Baking & Strobing Brush Set is Sigma's latest brush collection, which features five unique brushes designed to set and highlight the face for a perfected-skin finish. The collection retails for $84 a set, which is not bad considering the skyrocketing price of makeup brushes as of late. These beauty brushes can be used with cream, liquid or powder products to apply, blend, set and highlight the skin. Although each tool was designed with a specific use in mind, the super-multifunctional brushes have multipurpose use.

Baking & Strobing Brush Set incude:

1. F06 Powder Sweep™


2. F42 Strobing Fan™


3. F79 Concealer Blend Kabuki™


4. F89 Bake Kabuki™


5. P89 Bake Precision™

Sigma Power Stick Lipstick Review

Sigma Power Stick is Sigma Beauty's latest full-pigment, smooth formula lipstick. Once an exclusive makeup brush and tool brand, Sigma has expanded their collections recent years to include eyeshadows, concealer, lipsticks, you name it. The Power Stick, which retails at $25 each, comes in six wearable shades ranging from professional neutral to spring and summer bright. Swatches of all six shades can be seen below, courtesy of Sigma.

I personally recommend the Sigma power stick in clover, the soft, wearable pink shade. It is a full coverage lipstick that gives the illusion of smooth and natural lips. As a full coverage lipstick, I found it non-drying and lasting. That kind of formulation isn't difficult to find in the booming makeup industry these days, but consistently good releases are a rare treat.

[caption id="attachment_3658" align="alignleft" width="300"] Sigma Power Stick lipstick swatch courtesy of Sigma[/caption]

The six shades available on sigmabeauty.com:

• Sigma Pink: Signature magenta pink


• Clover: Soft, wearable pink


• In Spades: Earthy, natural lip color


• Nancy: Soft peach


• Bloody Good: Heirloom tomato red


• Stamina: Electric, bold plum

Sigma Beauty's lipsticks are also available at Nordstrom and other retailers, but may we suggest readers order straight from the source to take advantage of the Sigma coupon codes and free shipping codes? The April 2016 Sigma coupons are up and the May 2016 Sigma coupons and deals are expected to be revealed soon.

Nordstrom: Two Left Shoes & Beauty Brushes

I don't own black boots because I always end up buying the brown pair. Black boots are a lot more practical, but somehow the brown ones just look better on their own. I finally got down to looking pass the lovely mahoganies settling down on a pair of black Steven Madden boots from nordstrom.com. I was ecstatic when it came it and tried to wear it out that first night. My whole evening outfit was ruined when I realized that I had been sent two left shoes!

I vented on Twitter, which was met with a response from Nordstrom to help me locate another pair I could order. I would have to front the additional money and return the two left shoes in order to get my money back. It was the minimum that they could have done and I am not dissatisfied, but still very annoyed. I hate dealing with returns; but more importantly is my opportunity cost. I am currently at a negative for money with no boots to show. Fronting additional money for boots I already paid for is just frustrating. And those boots would have been perfect for date night.

On a semi-related note, I just realized that Sigma brushes are available at Nordstrom stores. (Though Sigma Black Friday deals are only valid at sigmabeauty.com.) Life would be easier if I had a Nordstrom nearby.

Sigma Black Friday & Cyber Monday Sale 2015

On Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday, Sigma will gift us FREE WORLDWIDE SHIPPING with no limits from November 26 - 27, 2015. Cyber Monday coupons and holiday galore!

Sigma has improved their system a lot since that year that chaos ensued and sigmabeauty.com became too slow for the mass to get their order in on time. Free shipping is not a huge deal for most Americans who only have to buy $30 for the offer, but international buyers pay a lot for shipping! I've gotten the feedback that this deal is most welcomed in countries like UK, Australia, France, Brazil.



The weekend between Black Friday and Cyber Monday is also celebrated with a special free gift with purchases of $50 or more. What is the free gift? There is some mysterious air around it, but stay updated by checking the Sigma coupon page.

As for Cyber Monday on November 30, 2015, you are looking at saving 20% off your sigma order! That's the sale we've all been waiting for. Because $300 worth of brushes are worth waiting for... right? Check out the rest of the Sigma Beauty deals.

Sigma 50th Anniversary Copper F80 Brush

Sigma Beauty's F80, flat kabuki face brush has long been a cult favorite and best selling brush. I've personally raved about the brush countless times before. Just this month, Sigma released a beautiful limited edition cooper F80 brush.

I have been a loyal customer and affiliate of Sigma and was quite pleasantly surprised to have received a special edition 50th anniversary brush from Sigma! The brush design is beautiful and flawless. I didn't consider myself someone to be moved by an aesthetic design whilst I already own countless functional F80 brushes - but I was touched all the same. It's kind of my special to go brush now! If you're picking up an F80 brush this month, be sure it's the limited edition copper design.

And why not this month if ever? See these sigma coupons for more details on the free shipping and 10% off offer.

What do you think about the brush? Are you a diehard flat top kabuki brush user or do you have other brushes on top of your list?
