My Experience with SIGMA E 45 Small Tapered Blending Brush:

E 45 is small dome shaped brush with pointed tip. The bristles are highly tapered at the top to get that perfect pointed tip which will place the color right in place and then the fluffier shape towards the bottom which will help in blending out any harsh lines. The bristles are densely packed which gives brush a firm shape but it is fluffier enough to do blending job with ease.

The pointed tip fits really well on my small hooded eyes and aids depositing color precisely in the crease or Outer-V corners. The fluffier bottom helps in blending the color to the extent you would like to achieve and there is absolutely no chance of getting the color over blended or reaching the unwanted areas due to its tapered shape. The control and precision provided by this brush is marvelous.
I have washed it 3-4 times and hadn’t faced any problem with shedding or the bristles loosing its shape. It stays pretty much the same just a bit fluffier after wash for the first time.
As you may already know that I love trying and mixing colors on the lids to create a amalgamation of shades on the crease and all of this can be achieved with his blending brush made in an effortless way and give a beautiful 3-d finish.

Comparison with Other Blending Brushes:

Don’t Miss to checkout:

• SIGMA Makeup Tapered  Blending Brush -E40
  
• SIGMA Makeup Blending Brush – E25

• E40: It is a large round shaped brush which doesn’t allow precision but is great for blending the color all over, I prefer it more for highlighter application on cheeks.
• E25: It has a straight cut bristles with slightly fluffy shape which works nicely for crease blending but getting precision will not be easy.

Each of these blending brushes performs an entirely different job on the lids but with these 3 brushes I can any of the desired look with ease. The eye shadows are blended out so precisely that the color to give that soft color shift effect merging the shades in such a way that I didn’t come to know when the new color started
It is raved to be a Dupe of MAC 226 brush but cant actually compare the price is however almost half of MAC with comparable quality. Also some have liked SIGMA more than MAC
