The SkinStore Awards: Best Beauty Tools Brand

BeautyBlender

The BeautyBlender might look like an ordinary sponge, but don’t be fooled – this egg-shaped tool is simply magic. The BeautyBlender helps you to expertly apply your makeup, from primer to foundation or concealer– basically anything creamy. If you want an even coverage and a smooth finish, this is the tool for you. For the best results wet the sponge thoroughly and squeeze out the excess water, and the BeautyBlender will increase in size, becoming soft and spongy. Dip your sponge in the chosen product and use pat and rolling motions on your face to achieve that flawless finish.

Pro Blo

Goodbye tired arms, Hello Pro Blo! Get salon hair at home with these innovative hair tools. Toss out your hair brushes, save time on drying and get gorgeously smooth big bouncy hair with lots of body. The barrels come with a unique detachable handle that allows you to perfectly place each one for flawless curls. What I love most about this hair tool is that it literally halves the time it takes for me to dry and smooth out my extremely frizzy hair and, even better, my hair stays smooth for days.

Sigma

Sigma beauty has quickly grown into a well-known international beauty brand.

Their mission is to provide us beauty enthusiasts with the best and most innovative tools to make applying makeup fun and easy. Sigma are best recognized for their extensive range of makeup brushes and they are easily some of the best  brushes available. These beauty tools are professional-grade, incredibly long lasting use exclusive synthetic fibers.

As a makeup artist I genuinely believe that using good makeup brushes can completely change the way your makeup is applied and the finish you can achieve. I like to indulge in brush sets rather than individual brushes and Sigma have plenty of great sets for different purposes. The Sigma Highlight and Contour Brush Set is ideal to create subtle shadows and flawless makeup.

Sedu

The mission at Sedu is to provide us with superior styling solutions to ensure perfect hair every with every use. Their innovative creations include flat irons, styling irons, curling irons and blow dryers.

The wonderful thing about these great tools is that they offer StyleShield technology that provide infinitely smooth surfaces that eliminate residue buildup, maintaining optimum performance throughout their lifetime. I have naturally big, frizzy hair and even when I blow it, unless I spend hours with round brushes, it is still incredibly unruly. When I use flat irons I fear that I am constantly damaging my hair when I try and smooth it out, but with the Sedu Icon 1 styling iron, the advanced heating system maintains consistent temperatures that protects my hair from multiple types of damage and actually increases moisture retention, leaving me with silky smooth, frizz-free hair.

I should also mention with this styler, the floating plates enable multiple styling options, so you can use it to straighten and to curl-bonus!
