Sigma F40 Large Angled Contour Brush – Value $23

I currently use a brush similar to this (a little larger) for my blush, which offers nice control for the placement where I want it. This brush has a fluffy, angled brush head with round edges so it’s great for blending – I’m happy to have this for my bronzer!

Sigma E55 Eye Shading Brush – Value $16

This brush is a fantastic staple shadow brush. This is exactly my go-to for applying shadow all over my lid when I apply my first/base color. This picked up and deposited the product really well.

Sigma E70 Medium Angled Shading Brush – Value $16

This brush is great for blending and a soft application of color. It’s also good for highlighting your brow bone and bridge of your nose.

Sigma is very well known for their brushes and I definitely am happy with my experience with them after hearing the hype. The bristles are soft and just work really well. I kind of wish the handles were just a little longer or tapered on the end to feel a little more professional but that’s such a minor gripe, and with their performance, I don’t even care that much.

Sigma Eyeliner, Vintage – Value $6.30

This eyeliner is lovely. It’s a basic brown but it has a smooth formula that applied well without any tugging. I felt like I had good control with it.

Mini SigMagic Brushampoo – 0.34 fl oz, Value $2.95

This brush shampoo is made with just water, coconut oil, and palm oil! It’s designed to dissolve product build up, oil residue, and harmful bacteria.

I have to say that I really love this brush shampoo! It cleaned my brushes really quickly and left them very soft, conditioned, and smooth (used in conjunction with the Sigma brush cleaning mat shown later). This is a great new discovery for me!

Sigma PowerStick Lipstick – full size, Value $25

I was really impressed with this lipstick! This color, “Stamina” is a beautiful bold plum, and the formula is smooth with great pigmentation. The packaging also feels very high quality – it’s metal, has a solid weight to it, and closes magnetically!

Sigma Spa Brush Cleaning Mat (Sample Size) – full size: $32

This sample size mat is available as a free gift with purchase with a purchase of $100+, but there are two sizes available for individual purchase: express size and a full size.

I love this little mat! The sample size is a good enough size for me but I can definitely see the convenience of having a little more space to clean your brushes. The different textures are labeled, with two being meant for washing, two for rinsing, and one for refining.

This little mat has suction cups to stick to the inside of your sink which is one of the best parts of the design of this product! I found this mat to be really effective and convenient and I don’t think I’ll ever be able to wash my brushes without something like this ever again.

Sigma Aura Powder Blush in Lady Slipper – Full Size, Value $19

This next product is an all-over face powder, but the shade I received works best as a blush for me. I have to say that I really love the holographic packaging from Sigma!

It’s super on-trend and just super fun.

This shade, “lady slipper” is a pretty, cool pink. This is quite a big pan so you really get a good amount of product! I wasn’t sure how this color would look on me because it looks very “baby pink” but it looked much more wearable on than in the pan!

Sigma Eye Shadow Palette, Brilliant and Spellbinding – Value $27.30

I was so excited to see that Sigma included a full eyeshadow palette in this mystery box!

The back of the palette shows the names of each shadow color.

This palette has 12 shadows, which are mostly bronzey neutrals. Four shades are matte and the rest are shimmer finishes.

I think this palette is great! The formula is nicely pigmented and these colors are easy to wear, mix-and-match, but still have pops of colors that make it easy to play around with some bolder looks, too.

Here are the top four shadows swatched for you: Hiatus, Solstice, Healthy, and Languid.

The middle row: Radiant, Balmy, 10, Spellbinding.

And the bottom row: Sensational, Bloom, Fey, and IG2

And here’s the lipstick, eyeliner, and aura powder blush swatched! You can see all of them have excellent pigmentation – I’m happy with all of these formulas.

E56 Mini Shader Travel Lid Brush – gift with purchase over $50+

This was the free gift I chose for my purchase over $50. This brush is designed to help with precise placement of powder on your lid, so it works for me that it’s mini. I think it’ll work great with outer-corner detailing or highlighting your inner eye and such.

Here’s a full look with the blush, eyeliner, eye palette, and lipstick! I have to say I really love every product I tried. I was surprised to see how well the cool blush wore on my skin because I wouldn’t have guessed it’d look this nice on by looking at it in the pan, but it pays off very naturally!

For my eyes, I used the shade “Solstice” all over my lid, blended the matte shade “Balmy” into my crease, and shaded my outer lids with “Fey.” I finished up with the Vintage eyeliner, which I really felt was smooth and very workable.

Verdict: I was so happy when I saw Sigma was offering a mystery bundle! I’ve heard so much about them but have never tried their products. I’m a big fan of literally everything I was sent and am looking forward to trying more colors of the blush and lipstick and maybe grabbing a bigger brush mat. I think Sigma did a great job bringing together a variety of items that are very usable and practical. The lipstick color may not be for everyone but I’ve been looking for a purple that works for me and I’m really happy with this color so for me at least, it’s a win. As far as value goes, everything adds right up to ~$139 just like Sigma promised for this $50 Mystery box – I’m definitely happy with that! Even if you aren’t concerned with the retail value and all you do is look at what the mystery box offered for just the $50 it’s clearly a great value.
