Sigma Dry'n Shape Tower® Face & Eyes

I've had my eye on the Sigma Dry'n Shape Tower for a while now.  If you read my last post about how I wash and dry my makeup brushes [if not, click here for the post] you know what my routine was, but since then I've changed it a teeny bit.

I want my brushes to last as long as possible, so drying them facing down so the water doesn't get into the base of the brush is the best way to do that - enter the Dry'n Shape!

Sigma Dry'n Shape Tower® Face & Eyes
Claims from the Sigma website:
The PATENTED Dry'n Shape Tower® - Face and Eyes was specifically designed to completely dry and shape your most dense face and eye brushes faster than ever before while holding up to 44 brushes at once.

• Holds up to 24 eye brushes and 20 face brushes
• Includes 3 bases and 2 connectors
• Disassembles easily for compact storage
• When combined with Dry'n Shape Tower - Eyes can hold up to 92 brushes

Sigma has four versions of the Dry'n Shape: the eye tower (48 eye brushes), the face and eye tower (24 eye and 20 face brushes), the full set (two towers for up to 92 brushes), and the spa (built in cleaning pad, plus brush holders).  So there is a brush tower for every budget and makeup brush collection!

Sigma Dry'n Shape - Face and Eyes

The Dry'n Shape Face & Eyes was perfect for me.  As you can see, I have a variety of brushes on the tower from Elf to Real Techniques, to EcoTools to Sephora Professional.  I keep my Sigma Brushes in a brush roll for nicer occasions so those weren't dirty after this marathon cleaning session.  Minus two brushes from EcoTools with thick brush handles and my Tarte Kabuki brush, everything fit in the slots perfectly!

I will eventually get the brush cleaning mat or glove to go along with this drying tower, but for now, I put a small squirt of Dr. Bronner's Pure-Castile Lavender Soap in my hand, swirl the brush around in it, and rinse clean.  Then into the drying tower it goes!  If the brush is really hanging onto makeup (like a foundation brush), I swirl it around directly on a bar of Dr. Bronner's Bar Soap I keep in a travel soap dish just for this occasion.

All in all, I highly recommend the Sigma Dry'n Shape Tower for any makeup brushes you have.  It makes cleaning a breeze since you can just pop them onto the rack right after you finish washing.  The three tiers come apart as well for easy storage either in a bathroom or set of Alex drawers.

EcoTools Brushes

My collection of EcoTools brushes is growing so I wanted to do a post on them.  EcoTools makes super affordable brushes that are such good quality that I keep coming back to them.

EcoTools are 100% cruelty free, vegan, made with recycled materials, have all bamboo handles, and use eco friendly, tree free packaging.

The bamboo handles are smooth and easy to hold and the bristles are super soft and blend makeup like a dream.  They make all their products in eco conscious practices which is fantastic.  More reason to love them!

EcoTools Eye, Bronzer, and Fan Brushes

Here are the brushes I own from EcoTools:

Eye Enhancing Duo Set - $5.79 @ Target
I use these double ended brushes almost every time I do my eye makeup.  They are dense enough to pack on color but the bristles are super super soft.  This kit is so affordable and you basically get four brushes for about five bucks!

Domed Bronzer Brush - $7.99 @ Target
Don't let the name fool you here - this brush is great for bronzer, but it's also great for powder and powder foundation.  Great handle, and so soft!

Fan Brush - $4.00 @ Amazon
This is my newest EcoTools brush and I love it!  I thought it might pick up too much color at first but it doesn't - it's the perfect brush for highlighter.  I've been using it with The Manizer Sisters Highlighter Palette and it does great even with the small pans in it.

I will definitely be adding to my EcoTools collection and am super excited about their new line.  They are constantly adding to their collections so check out EcoTools at Target or on their website.
