GSN-3 Cheek / Chikuhodo GSN SeriesMakeup BrushFantastic- One brush for everything
I did a lot of research before I placed my order for the brushes. I have to say that the whole GSN and Takumi series from Chikuhodo is very successful. The shape of this brush is perfect for blush, powder, highlighting, bronzer. It is very soft but precise at the same time. If I had to choose only one brush, I would choose this one.

GSN-9 Eye Shadow / Chikuhodo GSN SeriesMakeup BrushAn extremely soft brush
I agree with the reviews and can absolutely recommend this brush. It is fantastic to apply eyeshadow with it.
-
GSN-14 Screw Brush / Chikuhodo GSN SeriesMakeup BrushLuxury also for the eyebrows
I like natural hair brushes because they do a much softer and more precise job. You can also tell the difference with eyebrow brushes. I can absolutely recommend it.
-
B-F-01 Powder Brush / BISYODO SeriesMakeup BrushExcellent Powder Brush
I always love big and round type powder brush, so I decided to take this one in. It's amazing when the first time I used it to apply powder on my face. The bristle is very very soft, which I feel it'softer than other saikoho powder brush. I also have B-F-02, but after the comparsion, I love B-F-01 better which I will also recommand it if you like the same type of brush as me.
-
Z-1 Powder / Chikuhodo Z SeriesMakeup BrushVery soft and dense brush
Chikuhodo Z series is always the top and famous series when talking about Japan Fude. the bristle is really soft and the density is also ok. I do love to use it to apply setting powder on my face. Thoug I haven't tried, I think it should be good to use for blush product as well.

Ksz-03 Cheek Brush / KOYUDO Kakishibuzome SeriesMakeup BrushGood Cheek Brush
I purchased Ksz-02 & Ksz-03. To be honest, I don't feel very good when using Ksz-02 for the first time. I even felt a bit of prick when used it on my face. But when I used Ksz-03 for the first time, the experience is different from using Ksz-02. The bristle is soft, and it does apply the blush very smooth and pigment. So I will recommand that this brush should match with not so pigment blush which will be better.

Chikuhodo NL-11 Retractable Lip BrushMakeup BrushHigh quality
There are so many retractable lip brushes available on CD Japan to choose from. I chose this one based on the color and price. The color is a very beautiful wine red/burgundy. The item is of high quality.
-
Z-10 Eye Shadow / Chikuhodo Z SeriesMakeup BrushA good pencil brush
I need the softness of this brush for the lower lash line. Holding the brush in my hand I can feel the craftsmanship. From the bristles to the handle, this brush is very well made.

MK-12 Retractable Blush Brush / Chikuhodo Makie SeriesMakeup BrushCompact
I like retractable brushes for their portability. One with an exquisite makie design is a big plus. The size of this brush is smaller than I expected. However, I still like it as it is a beautiful item. The more expensive but bigger MK-11 may be more practical.

A pretty cotton pouch that will be useful for carrying a few brushes with me while offering some protection.

GSN-5 Liquid / Chikuhodo GSN SeriesMakeup BrushUniversal brush
I love this brush. It's so versatile and if you use it correctly, it's just great. In other words, this brush can replace a few other brushes. But feel free to try it out yourself.

Best brush ever! Makes a great facial tone, blush, blend. Just fantastic! This softness and naturalness despite the make-up product is simply unbelievable! There is also a very elegant design. I use this every day and it feels great to use such a high quality product. Many thanks to Chikuhodo!

Koyomo nadeshiko Pearl Pink Shadow BrushMakeup BrushA petite brush
This is the shortest eyeshadow brush I have ever had. It is slightly shorter than Chikuhodo G-3. I was looking for short and compact eyeshadow brushes to replace my old synthetic ones. This petite little brush is very light, short, compact and cute. A joy to bring it with me when I travel. The pearlescent pink handle is pretty. The "koyomo" hair is soft as advertised. I am very satisfied with my first Koyomo brush and came back to purchase the flat version.
-
Koyomo nadeshiko Pearl Pink Flat Shadow BrushMakeup BrushMy second petite brush from Koyomo
I bought the non-flat version the first time and came back to grab this flat brush as well. It is a soft, delicate but firm brush. I love the compactness of the nadeshiko line, which is a great value. I am interested in trying more Koyomo brushes in the future.

Eihodo NF-M5 Foundation SpongeMakeup BrushA huge soft sponge
This is perhaps the softest sponge I have ever found. Great quality. It is quite a huge sponge. As described, it is 90 x 90 mm. It will be useful for applying liquid, gel, or cushion foundation.

EIHODO RE8-3 Makie Blush Brush No.2 Peony sakuraMakeup BrushBeautiful Makie
The Eihodo Makie Series looks stunning. There was more than one brush I wanted from the series, but many had been out of stock. The hair is not the softest you can find, but is decent and soft enough for what I need. The design is very beautiful. Small spots of the Makie flowers are iridescent. I want to buy another brush from this series.

Ksz-06 Eye Liner Brush / KOYUDO Kakishibuzome SeriesMakeup BrushAesthetically pleasing
This brush is so aesthetically pleasing. The natural wood handle feels very smooth in my hand. I love touching and holding the handle. I also love the way the wood grain shows through subtly in a slightly warm color. The saikoho hair is very soft yet firm. This is my first time trying a Koyudo brush. (I also bought a fu-pa with imitation hair.) I am excited and happy with the craftsmanship.

[f-06] Liquid mini fu-pa02 / Koyudo fu-pa SeriesMakeup BrushCompact and cute
"Goat and saikoho immitation hair" sounds interesting to me, especially when I will need to wash the brush often as its main purpose is for applying liquid and cream products. The hair feels soft on my face. The compact size makes this brush cute and good for travel. The handle looks all black, but it is actually pearlescent with tiny subtle green glitters.

Chikuhodo Hanako Brush HA-2 HANAKO PinkMakeup BrushHA-2
I really liked this brush, is very pretty. The bristles are soft and packed quite tightly. I like how multifunctional it is. You can blend makeup in hard-to-reach places, wear blush, bronzer, highlighter and powder. I keep it in my cosmetic purse.
