Hey all! I was given the sigma e40 as a gift... but my friend said she purchased it off of Amazon. Here's a link to the one she purchased http://www.amazon.com/Sigma-Beauty-Tapered-Blending-E40/dp/B005OZH88I

It says "from sigma beauty" but then says "sold by: b-glowing" I check on Sigma's website and it said b-glowing is an authorized retailer. All of the reviews on Amazon say it's a fake.. but sigma says it's an authorized retailer?

It doesn't look like I expected it to, so I'm a little confused/bummed/wondering if mine is fake or not!! can anyone help me out? does anyone have this brush that can compare?

I don't own any sigma brushes
But I'd say if the site says it's an authorized dealer it's legit

B-glowing is the seller (not the sigma company). If sigma says that b-glowing is an authorized seller than its real. Amazon is basically a place where a seller can sell company's products online. Just like Ulta sells a numerous amount of brands of cosmetics!

Thanks all! And ahh I know it just didn't look like how it does in the tutorials and stuff! But I think once it gets some wear and tear it will be a little more fluffy because right now it's dense! And Jacqueline unfortunately they do :( on Amazon. Not sure why though. Someone posted this pic and left is from sigma site right is from Amazon and mine looked like the one on the right so I was nervous haha. Thanks ladies

Hmm weird! Caylas brush looks like yours and she bought hers directly from sigma. Do you think they just changed the brush recently? Maybe that poofy one is an old model?

Mine was very dense when I first got it as well! Just keep using it and it will be fluffy in no time.

Is it just me, or does the ferrule look longer and thinner on the brush on the right in that photo?

One of multiple reasons I don't use Sigma, they lack quality control. But to that degree? That seems odd.

It does Emily! But you can so see the one on the right is just a SMIDGE higher than the left. I've stared at them for so long 😂
