SIGMA - Miss Bunny Synthetic Brush Collection

  

Packing. Cardboard with cute design on it.

In this kit you receive 12 Synthetic makeup brushes and a brush storage case. 

Brush Holder

The brush cups are perfect for traveling or just displaying on hyour dressing table,  it's made from a  Synetheic leather with two clips on the side. It's a baby blue with blue stitching. 

Bristles quality
It is comforting knowing my bristles aren't made from animals and perect for anyone vegan. I'm also surprised that these bristles are very soft and not as dense as the Sigmax brushes, i was expecting these brushes to be super dense and there not there very flexible and very soft.

F30 Large Powder Brush - One of the biggest differences that you’ll see in between the original Make Me Up Kits and the Bunny kit- this large powder brush is still loose and fluffy, making it great for powder, bronzer, etc. The synthetic fibers allow it to be super soft and maintain its shape better.

 

F50 Duo Fibre Brush - Not a huge difference in functionality from the original. Super soft and provides a light application…I love it for bronzer.

 F40 Large Angled Contour Brush - Love this in the synthetic version! Much easier to clean than the white natural hairs and it keeps its shape much better. I feel like its a bit more dense than the original natural hair one, but it’s still great for blush and highlighter.

 F60 Foundation Brush - No big difference from the original kit, just an all-round great foundation brush. 

E40 Tapered Blending Brush - I love the softness of this brush.  It’s super soft so it works well for blending out eyeshadow or setting concealer with powder. 

E55 Eye Shading Brush - Nice and dense- the only thing keeping this brush worthwhile. It’s super soft so it won’t scratch or be stiff like the original, but a little too soft sometimes.

 E60 Large Shader Brush - I prefer the original of this brush. This one is just a little too soft and flimsy which doesn’t allow it to pack color on very easily. 

E65 Medium Angled Shading Brush - A nice angled brush for crease work…blends colours well but the softness does make it a bit harder to hold onto color on its own.

 F70 Concealer Brush - Not a huge difference from the original concealer brush in terms of functionality, but does work nicely as a baby sister to the SigMAX precision collection (just a flat one) 

E30 Pencil Brush - An amazing synthetic version- no more scratchy fibers near the eye! This one stays soft and keeps its pointy, tapered shape much better than the original natural hair one.

 E65 Small Angle Brush - No big differences from the original, a great angled liner/brow brush. 

E-- Small tepered eyeliner brush, perfect for cream, pencil, gel eyeliner, and smudging eyeshadow.

Maybelline Super Stay 24 hour Foundation Review / First Impression

This foundation says:

It's has a micro - Flex Formula with non-transfer (won't rub off), flawless, breathable all day comfort wear foundation. Which can last for 24 hours. With a SPF 19 and is for ALL skin types, as it's oil free and doesn't clog pores which is also heat, sweat and humidity resistant. THAT'S ALOT OF PROMISES..... SO IS THIS TRUE???

My First Thoughts:

Great packaging, simple, clean. I love it when high street/ drug store foundations have a pump. Not a great colour range when I shopped for this foundation. When i tested it in the store it on my hand, smooth formula and very blendable, lets see if it does what it says what it does on the bottle.

Colour Range:

Left to Right: Sand, Light Beige, Ivory, Cameo, Nude Beige, Fawn and Sun Beige.

The colour selection is really limited. When I went to my local boots there were only 6/7 shades. Because I'm quite pale I was quite disapointed with the lighter shades as there was only 2 and the shade above (Ivory) was very tanned and yelllow based. There was a huge difference between every shade, either to dark or to light. I choose the colour 005 Light Beige which has a pink under tones and matched me perfectly, which is very rare for the high street/drug store. All the foundations were either very yellow tones or too pink, so always use a tester on your cheek before purchasing, you may even feel tempted to buy two shades and mix them together because I was thinking about it.

Packaging:

Glass Bottle with a pump.

How did I apply this?

In the picture above I used 2 1/2 pumps of foundation with a MAC 190 brush. It blended well, and when i ''pushed'' the foundation into this skin using a patting motion it covered my spots, redness and discolouration. The foundation dried quite quickly with a satin-matte finish and gave me a medium/buildable coverage. 

In this picture (taken with my iphone 5, in natural light no flash) I had the foundation on for 5 minutes: (NO EDITING) (11:58am)

This picture I had the foundation on for 5 hours (NO touchng up with powder as I have a oily t-zone and no editing whats so ever). (5pm)

I used my Nikon to take this photo (with flash), so the quailty is much better. As you can see i'm a little oily on t-zone but I knew that would happen but so far, im impressed, it was a warm day today and I was nervous but foundations looks very dewy in person not oily.

This picture is just before I took my makeup off, so a total of 11 hours (11:01pm)

Again I used my Nikon and just about to take my makeup off, and overall im a little oily in my t-zone. Camera isn't really picking up oily t-zone, but the rest of my skin still looks dewy. If I had powdered I don't think i would look this oily, but impressed and happy with my purchase.  I have very dry cheeks and a oily t-zone, the foundation didn't pick up my dry skin and didn't show any of my t-zone until 5 hours of wear.  Even though I used 2 1/2 pumps of foundtion I didn't look or feel like my skin was ''cakey''. But for 11 hours of wear VERY IMPRESSED!!!!!!

Price:

I paid £8.99 for this foundation, but maybelline ALWAYS have 3 for 2 in Boots (UK Beauty store) so if you want tio try this foundation I recommend you buy it with a 3 for 2 offer as maybelline do a great range of items. 

Would I use it again??

YES!! I wore this foundation for 11 hours and thats without powdering or touching up my makeup. Maybe it might be my skin type but i'm very happy. I will use this foundation for 2 weeks and will make another blog post. I think overall for a high street/drug store foundation it gets 9/10 for staying power, coverge, long wear and blending.
