MYSTICAL MAKE UP AND BEAUTY

This is the post that I promised you when I am doing my review on Sigma F15 duo fibre brush

In this post I  will be comparing Sigma F15 Duo Fibre Blush / Powder Brush  and MAC Duo Fibre 131 brush….  Dr. Makeup Temple has 2 patients on the operation table today..

We will be talking pluses and minus of these two patients today…

1-) MAC 131 has shorten handle than Sigma F15

2) Sigma F15 has wider but shorter bristles

3-) MAC 131 has longer but

4-) Sigma F15 has flat bristles

5-)Sigma F15 handle is thicker than MAC 131

6-) Sigma F15 gives us an easy application comparing to MAC 131

7-) MAC 131 is not bad but Sigma F15 is better for foundation

8-)They both do not leave bristles on face

9-)Both MAC 131 Duo Fibre brush and Sigma F15 does not leave any streak marks like MAC 187 and Sigma F50 or other Duo Fibre Brushes..

10-)  I can only say one negative thing about Sigma Brushes, I am talking on the Sigma Brushes I have and generally after a certain use and wash they fall apart from the handle, and i used super glue on one of the brushes, now I seriously do not remember which one for sure but as far as I remember it was Sigma F50

11-) If you ask me Sigma F15 or MAC 131 I will definitely say Sigma F15, If I say Sigma F15 than why did I purchase MAC 131 it is because I do not like to use just one brush in one brand, I would not know which one is better if i did not use both two. MAC 131 is not bad, they are at the same quality but at this time I like Sigma F15, both of the brushes has been purchased by myself.

12-)MAC 131 Duo Fibre Brush Cost 40 USD and was a limited edit brush, Sigma F15 is not a limited edit brush on and it costs

13-) MAC 131 is good at applying highly pigmented products, pigments, glitters, NARS Orgasm Blushes, Dark or Red CC, or dark foundations which is used by pros on contouring and highlighting , cream blend foundations, cream blushes

14-) I generally us MAC 131 with liquid highlighters, like Soap & Glory Hocus Focus.

15-) Try mixing your loose bronzer and Liquid Highlighter than apply with using MAC 131 or Sigma F15 you will be amazed…

16-) It is easier to clean these two brushes, I usually wash them with a baby shampoo, I tried to use brush shampoos in past but those shampoos is not really helpful when cleaning up makeup brushes and it leaves a strange scent on the brushes which gives me a nausea, at the end a regular baby shampoo is inexpensive and it is for sensitive skin so it will not give any harm to your brushes.. I am totally against washing your brushes with detergents,  Detergents are carcinogen and baby shampoos are not.

17-) On  my latest post I gave you the dupe list for MAC 131 but I do not mind mentioning it again

• Sigma F15 Duo Fibre Brush – MAC 131 Duo Fibre Brush
• Coastal Scents C427
• Hakuhodou G545
• Hakuhodou G544
• Coastal Scents Tapered Duo Fiber Brush
  

This is one Sigma makeup’s new brushes, It is a duo fibre brush, It says it is for powder and blush, but I prefer to use it as a foundation brush..

I also use this brush for  applying MCC, Nars Cream Blushes

The fibres are soft and it is easy to apply any kind of cream products although it is more easy to use cream products with their Kabuki brushes..

Because it is a duo fibre brush it is much more easy to apply foundation if I have to compare it with MAC 190 or Sigma  Foundation brush.

This is not a must have brush for beginners but for the collectors or for the people like me who likes to try new things than go for it,

I always take my sigma brushes with me When I am travelling because If I loose or dropped it or forget  it somewhere I will not get very sad, it is affordable I can always replace it, but I do not like to take MAC brushes with me, it is expensive and not everybody can afford it, best to use it at home for my self rather than somebody nicks it or I forget it somewhere.

I have good quality brushes but I did not buy them at once, I bought one brush at a time, and It took me long time to buy the brushes I want to so they are very precious for me..

I sometimes use it mixing my powder bronzer and liquid highlighter and apply to my face as highlighter bronzer

It is actually multi talented brush, it blends loose powders, loose blushes great.

This is also an exact dupe of MAC 131 brush

I will soon be posting on MAC 131 brush and than it will be followed by a comparisson post between MAC 131 and Sigma F15
