Review by Courtney Brown

Even though this brush is really small it fits perfectly in my hand and applies powder nicely. It has shed a few hairs, hoping that will stop after a few washes

Love this small dense brush for direct contour placement. I use this with the too faced sweetie pie matte bronzer then blend it with the z-8 and it works a treat

Love this brush! Actually i love all of the z-series, there all amazingly soft, and i have never had any of them shed any hairs. I do find the z-8 is a bit big for blush so i use it to blend my blush and contour after applying for an extra diffused look

This brush is nice, its soft, has never shed, and its a nice shape for bronzer, blush or highlight application, but to be honest i dont ever really use it i find i reach for the z-2 over this one.

This brush is perfect, amazingly soft, and definitely one of my all time favourites! I use this to apply my giorgio Armani neo nude powder and it works flawlessly. Super convenient to, the perfect size to keep in your handbag for touch ups on the go.

This is a beautiful brush (as are all of the sakura set) it hasnt shed any hairs, but ive found it to be a bit to big for foundation application

Amazing little foundation brush that applies liquid foundation flawlessly the only bad thing is it has shed a few hairs even after washing it numerous times

Beautiful brush, not as soft as i expected but that maybe because im used to squirrel brushes. Still a great high quality brush, hasnt shed any hairs and applies powder flawlessly.

Beautiful brush, soft for goat hair, hasnt shed any hairs, but only really purchased as i wanted the whole sakura set.

Beautiful brush, soft, hasnt shed any hairs, i use it for setting my under eyes, but would be a great blush, contour or highlight brush

The z-4 cheek is my everyday blush brush and i have many to choose from but this is a cut above the rest. It applies blush flawlessly and is the perfect size and very easy to handle. All the z-series are super soft and ive never had a problem with them shedding any hairs. Definitely worth the price. I highly recommend this and every other brush in this series.

The mk-2 is the prettiest brush ive ever seen the maki-e print is simply beautiful. It's super soft, its never shed any hairs and i find that its works perfectly as a blending/finishing brush. I highly recommend.

The mk-11 is one of my favorite travel brushes its so very convenient and always in my handbag along with its matching little blush brush which are both of the same high quality. They both are super soft, compact, apply powder perfectly, they have never shed any hairs, and the maki-e print is just so very beautiful.

The z-series is a must-have for anyone with sensitive skin its so Amazingly soft that there's no way I could possibly go back to using my scratchy mac brushes. The z-2 is a great brush ive only used it for highlighting so far but its already a favourite of mine.
