Sigma & Sephora Haul

Hello lovelies. I made 2 online orders last week; one from Sigma and one from Sephora. I thought I'd share what I decided to splurge on and get!


I'll start with Sigma. As always their products were nicely packaged & came within a nice time frame. I decided I'd go big & pick up the Synthetic Face Kit as well as the Eye Liner - E05 Brush. I'm extremely happy with the density & softness of the 3 face brushes, & I'm really looking forward to trying out the eyeliner brush with my gel liner.



Now onto Sephora. This was a bittersweet order for me. I placed my order late Thursday evening, and due to how far I am from their warehouse I didn't receive my order until Friday evening. Not to mention, one of the eyeshadows in one of the palettes came broken and had made quite a mess! All in all though, I love Sephora, and I will simply train myself to buy soft products in the stores when I find time to make it into the city! I picked up the Urban Decay Naked Palette, the Urban Decay Black Palette, & the Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion Tube (Original). I'll ad the picture of the poor shadow that didn't fare so well, but I won't be returning. I'll do my best to simply re-press it rather than wait 2 weeks to return and have a new one sent!


All in all, I'm very happy with my everything I got, as I did a little bit of saving as this much was a splurge for me! Hope you're all having an enjoyable week!

Much Love,
Heather Lee

Mini Sigma Haul

Hey guys! Today I wanted to share with you my order I placed with Sigma. I have been contemplating ordering some brushes for quite some time now, but I couldn't bring myself to order a full set when I wasn't sure if I'd love the quality or not, so I decided I would start myself off with just 3 brushes, and use the 10% discount I had seen on Holly Ann-AeRee's twitter.

Each brush was $9. To me that wasn't pricey at all seeing as how I've looked at the Sonia Kashuk brushes at Target, and they cost more money and have an obnoxious shaped handle, so I figured why not. After shipping & the 10% off I wound up paying $29.75 for all 3 brushes. Not bad in my opinion.

Onto what I got & some pictures:

How it comes packaged.
I Chose: E30, E45, & E55
Left to Right: E55 - E45 - E30

Now onto the descriptions from Sigma, along with links to the individual brushes.

Small domed brush with highly tapered tip. Versatile, this brush can be used to precisely apply and blend intense colors to the crease area.

Precise application of color on the crease, outer corner, and upper and lower lash line. Also ideal to smudge out pencil liner. Natural bristles.

Soft and dense with a rounded finish. Can be used to apply pressed or loose eye shadows and pigments. Ideal to build intense color on the eyelid. Natural bristles.


I haven't used the brushes yet since they recommend you clean them before your first use, so I will be picking up some brush cleaner later today. I can already tell that the quality is definitely there though, and I can honestly say I will be ordering more brushes soon.

Hope you are all having an amazing week!

Much Love,
Heather Lee
