Love this brush. The very first fude brush I've ever bought, and I'm really happy with it. You could use it as a multifunctional way, so good for blending, nose contour, base eyeshadow, et cetra. You should own this brush if you love fude brushes. Just love this brush.

It does her job. Good for secondary contour for your eyeshadow. Not pocky at all, while still good at applying glitters.

Good for highlighter brush, if it's easy to pick up. But not sure about using this brush for applying baked, or pressed highlighter. If you want to use this as a highlighter brush, I would recommend you to use it with the highlighters that have strong pigments.

If you tap your brush straightforward to your face, it may bit pocky. But it's so good when you apply liquid with this brush. The bristles of this brush is chubby, so that you could apply foundation easily and so quickly with a very thin layer. If you have foundation that dries quickly (like 'double wear'), this brush is for you.

If you want to smudge your eyeliner? If you fill it out your under waterline? But if you felt pocky when using the other brushes? This is the one you have been looking for. The holy grail. You should buy it.

Love this. It rejects the dirts from brushes, you could postpone your brush cleaning day. so soft but effectively remove the dirts from your fude brushes. So reccomended.

Good for contour. I like this, but the problem is her thin layer of bristles. I want it a bit thicker than now. But still good for applying shading(Korean bronzer, bit different) on your face in a very natural way.

The versatility of this brush is insane. I use this brush everyday, and I use it as a multifunctional way. Normally, I don't use brushes as a multifunctional way, but this brush was definitely over my bar. I use it for drawing aegyosal shadow, blending eyeliner, making longer double eyelid lines, et cetra. This is the one you must have if you like South Korean make up. THE BEST +) Though, the brush handle is quite short, so it's hard to find in busy morning. That's the only problem with this brush. Other than that, it's soft, so well to blend, silky, just amount of flexibility, everything's just perfect.

This brush does a fantastic job with applying liquid or stick foundation. It is incredibly soft and leaves a natural “airbrushed” finish. I highly recommend it!

I’m very happy with CDJapan. The shipping was very fast — nothing to complain about. Now, about the brush: before buying it, I already had the full FO series, which I use regularly, with a particular preference for the FO3 and FO9. I bought the FO2 because I have oily skin, and I’m a fan of the pressing technique for setting powder. Normally, I do it using a velvet puff. But what I don’t like about this kind of tool is that it applies too much powder, and the final makeup look isn’t natural. I don’t have much experience with this type of brush, as it’s very hard to find reviews online. Most users seem to prefer buffing or sweeping techniques. For me, buffing is okay, but I find that it doesn’t blur the pores on my T-zone as well as pressing does. The FO2 brush isn’t very large. It’s extremely soft, and yes — it blurs the pores very well. I use it only for that purpose, since I already have other fude brushes for buffing. That wasn’t the goal of this purchase. Based on my experience using this type of brush for pressing, I’d say it’s a very good brush. I’ll definitely be using it daily, and if I don’t find anything better for this technique, I’ll buy a second one. In conclusion: I’m very happy with this product. Excellent quality, very satisfied.

First of all, thank you to CDJapan — I’m really happy with their service. The shipping was fast, everything was carefully packed, and the item arrived in perfect condition. The only small downside concerns the customs fees. Living in France, I had to pay quite a significant amount. Of course, this isn’t the site’s fault, but rather the result of international economic policies. That said, customs matter to me because I’m on a limited budget. So every purchase is a decision I make carefully, after countless hours of research. That was the case with the G9 brush. As of now, it’s no longer in production — and maybe this review will seem unnecessary — but I’m so thrilled with it that I had to write something. Online, it gets a lot of praise, especially for the incredible softness of the grey squirrel hair. Some users criticize the ferrule and the handle, saying that such extraordinary bristles deserved a more refined design. Personally, I don’t agree. For me, this brush is a form of therapy. Sensory therapy — because even when I’m done with my makeup, I still find myself brushing it across my face just for the feel. The hairs are that soft! Visual therapy — because unlike others, I find the brush really beautiful. It has a quiet elegance and feels perfectly balanced in the hand. In terms of use, it works wonderfully: it doesn’t disturb foundation but blends everything seamlessly. It gives a soft, natural finish and brings everything together. In short: absolutely no flaw in my eyes. I’m really glad I bought it, even though it’s expensive. I truly hope it’ll last me a lifetime.

It was soft enough for me. Proper to a soft pressed blushes with pearls.but there is a powder clumping up on the skin.

I think it is a little bit large for cheek so I use it for finishing powder. Its dome-shaped head offers excellent control and a smoth, diffused finishing powder. FO-3 feels incredibly soft and gentle in the skin.

Very soft and easy to work with. The kolinsky hair is great for using on gel eyeliners to blend or smudge. It's the perfect size and very well made.

It is ideal for applying highlighter or setting powder with special shape. This brush is the right size allowing for controlled application and seemless blending. The bristles puck up powder without wasting it and the application is very smooth and even. Highly recommended for this beautifully crafted makeup brush.

Love this brush for applying cream or liquid foundation. The fibers are soft and densely packed. The handle is gorgeous. Don't hesitate- It's a must have for your makeup routine

This is my first screw brush made by animal hair. It is quite stiff comparing to my other screw brush made by synthetic. I use it for combing the eyebrow. Since it's not so soft, I need to use it very gently to avoid making myself uncomfortable. I think the stiff bristle can make good hair combing, but considering the comfortness, I may not purchase such type of brush again.

Since I have purchased other similar brush like this for concealer application, so it's not a surprise to me. It just falls with my expectation, nice to use it for concealer application. The length of the hair is a bit of short for comparing to other concealer brush. But the size of the width quite fits my usual makeup habit.

I was expecting this to be relatively small like the RC-2, but it is much larger, especially post wash. The hair is soft and resilient with nice density. This brush could be used for powder or blush; it is much more versatile than I was expecting. Comparable to much more expensive silver fox brushes in my collection. At this price point, I don't have to be so precious about it and it's going to get a lot of use.

I bought this brush because I have extremely sensitive skin with rosacea, and I didn't want to feel the guilt of animal cruelty every time I'd put on powder on my face, plus I wanted something durable that would withstand oily sunscreen and regular washing. Well I'm amazed by the softness (not only MUCH softer than western synthetic brands, but I still have a few squirrel brushes at home and this brush could honestly have fooled me) and the performance (no streaks, even and natural coverage). I was totally sleeping on synthetic fude until I read a thorough guide on Reddit (look it up :) that made me realize how underrated it was in terms of durability, performance and softness. I'm also grateful that Koyudo took the bet of a bold design without lowering costs on quality (innovative corn-based fiber and brass ferules) <3
