LQ-3 Liquid Foundation Brush / Eihodo WP SeriesMakeup BrushAll about the hair
Didn't like the bundeling at all, but you can't go wrong with weasel hair : soft and sturdy, so I still like it for liquid products but would have picked the chikuhodo equivalent as it seems better crafted (at least from what I've seen)
-
GS-1 Eyeshadow Brush L/ Eihodo G SeriesMakeup BrushLovely all in one
Soft, plush brush excellent for swipe and done looks, nicely crafted, the hair is really soft and pleasent
-
Ksz-02 Powder Brush Round / KOYUDO Kakishibuzome SeriesMakeup BrushPlush and soft
A dense, plush brush excellent for finishing powders and bronzers. It's nicely bundled. It's supposedly saikoho and indeed it is soft and gentle on the face but the tips have some grip which can be a plus for hard pressed powders
-
CH-C Cheek Brush (Round Flat) / Uyeda Bisyodo Cheri SeriesMakeup BrushNice to have
Love the multitasker shape suitable for blush, bronzer and powders, it's nicely crafted and sturdy, sokoho hair is less soft, of course, but it is not unpleasent on the face and price is quite reasonable.
-
Z-1 Powder / Chikuhodo Z SeriesMakeup BrushPoorly made
Unfortunately it is not longer as well made as my old z1 2015.Less dense, hair is thinner, less resistant and bundled poorly with few hairs sticking out.
-
NO.833 Powder BrushMakeup BrushNice and soft
Nice and soft, fluffs a lot after washing and could be used for a light dusting of finishing powder. It is an outlet product so several flaws were to be expected : some minor knots removed after careful brushing and the ferrule was not pinched tightly pinched to the handle but all in all, very happy with this brush

fu-pa14 CB Gray Squirrel Powder BrushMakeup BrushMulti purpose and unique enough
Used to have goat fupas 10 years ago from koyudo but as they were all very tightly packed,washing was quite an exhausting process and as they dry slowly, hair loss was frequent. This one has an attractive price for a very good quality, some can afford to have a back up to avoid frequent washing. Good for powder base products (powder, bronzer, blush)
-
FO-5 Eye Shadow / Chikuhodo FO SeriesMakeup BrushNice
I expected a fluffier brush for a shadows on the go look but it is quite stiff the way a synthetic densly packed brush would feel. Very soft though and well crafted. In fact,it could be a workhorse : sturdy,reliable,soft,nice size but it's not a fude treasure treat (aka delicate crazy expensive rare hair brushes you pet more than they pet your face, ha ha)
-
Z-4 Cheek, Highlight / Chikuhodo Z SeriesMakeup BrushVery nice quality
Soft,good craftsmanship, multitasker. The squirrel hair is a high grade one, way better than the artist series or regular one from Chikuhodo, the handle is sturdy.
-
S-6 Eyeshadow Brush/ Eihodo WP SeriesMakeup BrushA pass
Cute little pencil brush but quite poorly made, the bundling is really bad, too stiff and prickly.
-
B-ES-03 Eye Shadow Brush / BISYODO SeriesMakeup BrushMultitasker
Quite intimidating at first : quite big for eyes, too small for face ? Well, one has to play with it and turn it at all angles : contouring, blending eyeshadows with the long side upside down, powder under the eyes, all over wash of colour on the lids, touch up the sides of the nose... The craftsmanship is outstanding, the hair is really soft, the bundling perfect
