So you are thinking of buying yourself some makeup brushes. But out of all the various brushes out there how do you decide which ones you should start off with? Wonder no more - Sigma narrows down 5 must have makeup brushes.

These are the bestsellers on the Sigma website but you can search your local markets for substitutes if you are not planning to head off to buy Sigma just yet (although once you try Sigma you probably won't look elsewhere!)

E65 – Small Angle: This brush performs double duty by working to fill in sparse areas of brows, as well as to apply gel or liquid eye liner along the lash line.

E55 – Eye Shading: The E55 was a top pick for its versatility to densely apply shadow all over lid, resulting in a strong and precise color payoff.

E25 – Blending: A blending brush is needed to achieve a seamless shadow application. This one fits the bill thanks to its perfectly shaped tip and soft but firm bristles.

F80 – Flat Kabuki: Known for its ability to buff on foundation to reveal nothing short of a flawless finish, this one will go down in history as our all-time favorite.

F40 – Large Angled Contour: The angle of the F40 makes for easy application of blush, bronzer and/or highlighter to enhance and define cheekbones. Talk about a multi-purpose must-have!
