Review :: Sigma F80 Flat Top Kabuki Brush + Foundation Application

When you think of a foundation brush, a flat kabuki brush may not be your first thought, however I’m sold on the Sigma F80 brush! It gives great even coverage, with an airbrushed effect. It doesn’t soak up product like a sponge can or leave streaks.

So far I have not had any shedding and the handle has held up through multiple washes. In this video I show you how I use it to apply my foundation (MAC Studio Fix Fluid in NC44).

A winner in my book!
