Sigma Brushes: Make me Blush and HD

So I received my Sigma brushes about a month ago and this was the first time that I had ever tried their name brand of brushes. I purchased their HD set of facial brushes as well as the Make me Blush set that had pink bar handles as well as the pink carrying case. Down below I have each of the pics of the brushes and their descriptions. Then afterwords I will have my final review on their brushes. Lets get started:

My Final Recommendations:
I was really excited about receiving these brushes and the total purchase of all of these together were $136.25. I love the color of my brushes and the fact that I have the basic tools I need to make flawless application as well as those very informative pamphlets that I received for both sets of brushes. They are overall very soft and apply great but the Make me Blush set seems to shed quite a bit which upsets me because I washed the before use to help with that and every time I use them some start shedding. The quality is still good for the price and I would greatly recommend the Sigmax brushes to professionals as well as fashionistas. I also would recommend the other brushes because they are good quality I just hate to have to deal with the shedding all the time but overall they are worth the money . And with this purchased I also received a tapered blending brush in their travel size that came because of the over $30 purchase. And I will do another blog about how I use these brushes and how I maintain and wash mine as well. See ya laters : )
