You know I love my makeup.
And I died when my Travel Brush Kit got stolen.

So I placed a second order to Sigma, this time for the full-sized original set. So that I can keep them at home without any chance of losing them again and suffer from extreme depression.

After 2 weeks of anxiety, they came! In a mangled envelope with messy tape at one side no less.

I should be thankful it didn't end up as lost mail, I take my rude words back.

Packaging...

The three brushes at the side came in a red mesh bag that I forgot to include. Bleh.

So the ones in the black mesh bag are my 12-pc full-sized original set. The two similar ones with the handles are the Flat-Top Buffer Brush; one for me and one ordered by my colleague. Teeny one with the stubby stump is the Kabuki.

Face brushes....

Includes large powder, stippling, flat foundation and angled blush brush.

Eye brushes.....

Includes big shader, blending, shader, angled shader, concealer, pencil, angled liner and thin liner brush.

and free with the set....the travel-sized SS217 which I adoreeeeee.

I think Sigma acted on feedback about how some girls boycotted them. Refrained from buying their brushes because of the similarity to the MAC ones?

I was surprised when I received the brushes, bcoz Sigma changed the brushes' numbering. Like previously the large powder brush was named the SS150? It's now called the F40. Same for the rest of the brushes, the face ones will have the letter 'F' at the front, while the eye brushed will have the letter 'E' before the numbers. A very good clever move I thought.

I wasn't bothered by the names or whatnot. As long as the brushes remain soft and of good quality as I remembered them to be, I'm still a happy camper :)
