Hello everyone!
Sigma just released the information about their newest limited edition release: The Paris Palette.
What sigma says: The Paris Project is the perfect combination of talent, art and tradition. Seven renowned beauty experts (TiffanyD, Xteeener, DulceCandy87, Xsparkage, Frmheadtotoe, Petrilude and MacNC40) explored the City of Lights and developed an original makeup palette inspired by the alluring city of Paris. For the next 7 weeks we will be releasing a tutorial and vlog from each of the artists involved in the Paris Project.


 The limited edition Paris Makeup Palette includes eight eye shadows that were influenced by landmark monuments and locations in Paris. It also includes two blush colors and one highlight shade.

What it is? 
 First off all, it comes with what seems a pretty large mirror, which you can fold over. 
Then, you got two brushes: 
 + The E55: which is a basic eye shading brush, great for applying color across the entire lid.
+  The F40: a angled contouring brush, that works great with blush.


Now the mos exciting part:
THE COLORS
+ Eiffel - It's a super dark black that contains multicolored shimmer.
+ Seine - a shimmery deep blue, I think it's perfect on a smokey eye for a night out.
+ Louvre - the only matte eyeshadow on this palette, an intense teal.
+ Orsay - it's a GORGEOUS aquamarine color, with some gold shimmer. It's even prettier on swatches than on the palette (check TiffanyD website for swatches).
+ Elysées - eggplant with gold shimmer.
+ Notre Dame - a frosted purplish taupe.
+ Triomphe - this one seems a duochrome color with greenish gunmetal(?) hints.
+ Versailles - a pretty frosted vanilla.

THE BLUSHES
+ Rouge - a mauve pink.
+ Pêche - a peachy color.
+ Lumiére - this is a highlighter. And it seems great for every skin colors because it seems to have a slight peachy undertone which warms it up and looks good even on the palest skintones. And I also like the fact that it is shimmery instead of glittery...if you know what I mean (I hate having chunks of glitter all over my face).

Every guru has a coupon code for 10$ off this palette, but right now I could only find one on Tiffany's video. 
"type in code TIFFANYD at checkout for $10 OFF the Paris Palette"

So on my last note, I think this a very well designed palette, since all the colors are very wearable. And i really like that it comes with blush and highlighters which is not common on sigma palettes but, I love the idea.

  I'm very excited about this palette and just a HINT!HINT! don't forget my birthday is on Saturday xD If you know what I mean...

What are your opinions on this?

Sigma E25 Brush - Review


posted by RamblingRose26 on , , ,

Hey everyone!
I'm back with another review.
Sigma sent me their eye blending  brush (E25) in the travel size version for review purposes.
As you may guess this will not be a huge review, because after all it is only an eye brush and there is not a lot to talk about.

So, the first thing I noticed once I took the brush from the container was a very strong plastic smell. Not so much on the bristles but mainly on the handle. This happened probably because it came in a plastic thingy. The smell went away from the bristles as soon as I washed it.

Let's section the review into topics:
- Shedding - It didn't loose a single bristle during the first wash, neither during the times I used it.
- Harsh? - Not at all!! This brush is so so soft that I just want to feel it all the time. It's probably softer than my kitty-cat tail xD
-Drying time - I washed it before the first usage and then I left it airdrying and it dried very fast (I think probably an hour to a hour and half)
- Size Comparison - Since I got the travel size I tough was a good idea to give you a size comparison to something that we all have...credit card (or affiliation card, drivers license, school ID...and all the cards with that standard size).



Even tough this is the travel size I think the bristles just look like the normal size. I would love to have the regular version of this brush to compare the bristles because they probably have about the same size.


You can get this brush here, on the Sigma Website.

Much love,
