Sigma Dry'N Shape Review

Image
I was using brush guards to dry my makeup brushes ( HERE  is a link to my old brush care post) and they worked fine but it would take all night for my brushes to dry.I have been wanting to purchase the  Sigma Dry'N Shape  for a long time and I finally did. The  Dry'N Shape  is a brush holder that dries your makeup brushes in 4-6 hours. After I shampooed my brushes I put them in the  Dry'N Shape  and set the timer for 4 hours to see if it would work, and to my surprise my brushes were dry! Even my huge dense Tarte brush was completely dry. Now two things, I did squeeze the excess water out so that my brushes were not dripping wet, and  I also live in a dry climate, but I do believe that the  Sigma Dry'N Shape  would dry your brushes in 6 hours max. I am very happy with this purchase and I also use it as a brush holder when I travel. The  Dry'N Shape  retails for $32 and you can use coupon code "AAM2013" for 10% off your order.  Brushes are good
