Sigma/Butter London Mini Haul


I had a moment of fear when I realized that a shade of Butter London nail polish that I'd been eyeing was not readily available in Ulta AND was even down to the last quantities on Amazon.  So I did what any good beautyholic would do...I ordered the last bottle from Amazon AND a couple other things I "needed".



FIRST and most important is my new Butter London nail polish in Cheeky Chops.  I think I bought this more because of the name, but also because I paired it with an outfit I created on polyvore (You'll see that later this week).  Each Butter nail polish costs around $14 (sometimes more if it's hard to find), and as you'll soon come to learn, it's one of my FAVORITE brands.  Amazon typically has the best prices on these polishes but sometimes Ulta runs specials or you can buy them direct from the Butter London website.

F84 - Angled Synthetic Kabuki

L05 - Lip

Then I assessed my current brush situation and decided to pick up a couple of brushes that I desperately needed.  First, let me say that Sigma brushes are by far my favorite.  I have MAC, I have Urban Decay, I have Bobbi Brown; but these are the best for the price.  I became a Sigma affiliate about 2 years ago when I got my starter kit and fell in love.  The bristles are soft and fluffy, they don't shed as much as many affordable brands do, and they last a really long time if you take care of them.  So on this "trip" I bought two new brushes.

The F84 Angled Synthetic Kabuki ($16.00) is great for the application of liquid foundation.  I already owned the flat top kabuki but I liked how this one contoured to my face and I think it applies the foundation better.

The L05 Lip brush ($9.00) is a compact brush with a cover so you can carry it in your purse and it's small enough to fit in a small makeup bag.  This feature was especially important because my makeup bag is tiny and I prefer to use a brush to apply my lipstick.

Sigma brushes are available at Sigma Beauty and they offer a wide variety of individual brushes and collections.
