I just purchased these brushes based off of the reviews. I was looking at the sigma versions of the 3 brushes I bought (the f84, the f86 and the e35). I own some other Sigma brushes that I love, so when the reviews were comparing these to the sigma equivalent my interest was piqued.
These brushes LOOK identical to the sigma version. I mean, really close. These are not what I would call a comparable brush in terms of quality though. The ferrules (the metal that holds the hair to brush) were loose and wiggly on all three. They were also dented. The brushes were much lighter in weight than the Sigma ones, and the bristles were not nearly as densely packed. The bristles were not as soft as the Sigma version, but very close.
Now, not being of the exact same quality of the sigma versions doesn't mean that these are bad. I just wanted other people who buy these based on the comparison know what the differences are. I would think a closer comparison would be the coastal scents brushes. They seem equally as good in terms of build quality and softness/shedding. I think the Bellus brushes are more attractive than the coastal scents though purely basing this on appearance as I said, they LOOK just like the Sigma brushes.
The face brushes had no offending scent (if you've bought other brushes, I'm sure you're used to some of the funky smells that come off some brushes), however the eye brush that came in a plastic bag had a slight sharpie marker smell. The other two did not come in a bag, just with brush guards (which had a bar code sticker on them I struggled to get off). The smell of the eye brush went away after it was cleaned. This probably doesn't matter a whole lot to anyone, but I thought I would mention it.
I also would like to mention that the brush also does not seems to shed much at all.
Overall, I think they are OK brushes. If you are just starting out or not expecting super high quality brushes, you'll be super pleased with these. They are light-years better than drugstore brushes in my opinion. I wouldn't pay more than price I did for this quality though (8 bucks for face and 5 for eye). These are great for someone like myself, just a girl who loves makeup.

I don't own any fancy brushes to compare this too, but I love it! The bristles are very soft, don't shed and are firmly attached to the brush. There is no looseness at the flange.I'll be going back for more of Bellus' brushes!

I was very surprised by these! They are very similar to the Sigma brushes! I was impressed! Will buy lots more!Honest reviews on Bellus kabuki brushes
I was getting ready to purchase the F84 brush by Sigma via Amazon.com and came across this little beauty! For 1/3 of the price of a Sigma brush I thought, "why not give it a try first, to see if I would even USE the brush enough to justify spending $20+ on a brush". Well I am GLAD I bought this one instead! I've used it a few times now and I love it! I can't imagine the more expensive one being any better, really, it's just a vessel to deliver face product to your face...there's nothing really fancy or special about it, and that's exactly why I love it! The brush itself is very sturdy and substantial feeling and the bristles are VERY soft! I am VERY happy!Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Bellus kabuki brushes
This brush is an exact dupe for the Sigma F86. It is made of great quality. It doesn't shed at all. I've had it for a few months and it still looks brand new when washed. The brush is soft, but firm enough to maintain its shape. I have already ordered another of these and two other brushes by Bellus. I will continue to buy again in the future.
