Review by Carolina F.

I wanted a more durable alternative for using powder over liquid foundation, not as delicate as the squirrel brush and with a bit more grip like the goat brush. It's soft and airy, depositing just the right amount of powder. It does widen quite a bit at the sides when washed.

I've tried several shampoos specifically for Fude brushes, and this is undoubtedly the best. It cleans very well without being harsh, doesn't lather excessively making rinsing easier, and leaves the brushes loose and soft. The packaging has changed; it's now green, but the shampoo itself is the same.

Although it's designed for applying eyeshadow, I use it for my eyebrows, as its small size and shape allow for incredibly precise and controlled work. The bristles work beautifully, making it easy to define and fill in effortlessly, especially in areas where more detail is needed. As for the handle, I prefer shorter handles because they're more comfortable when applying makeup near the mirror and prevent accidental bumps. Even so, in this particular case, I would have liked it to be slightly longer, though not as long as the GL version.

It's smaller than usual for foundation brushes, which is an advantage for working with greater precision, especially in areas like under the eyes or around the nose. Despite not being made of natural hair, it's very soft to the touch and feels pleasant on the skin. I'm going to use it for both liquid foundation and concealer, as its size and shape make it very versatile and easy to handle. Overall, it's a practical, comfortable brush that's more versatile than it first appears.

This brush may look like just another crease blender, and its design is simple, but it's such an incredible workhorse that it can apply and blend eyeshadow in no time. The bristles are very soft, the brush head isn't too loose or too densely packed, and it feels good for the job it was created for. I love the short handle, but those used to brushes with long handles might find this one a little difficult to balance in their hands. As is typical for Koyomo, it comes in a nice box.

The bristles are somewhat stiff, making application less comfortable and flexible than I expected. The handle is too short, which I personally didn't like, as it somewhat limits comfort during use. I regret not opting for the longer-handled version, which probably would have been more practical and well-balanced. Overall, it's a decent brush, but it doesn't stand out and would be significantly improved with a more comfortable design.

It's a very precise tool, ideal for working on your eyebrows with control and detail, whether defining or lightly blending the product. The shape and firmness are perfectly balanced, making application much easier. The bristles are very soft, the handle is beautiful and well-finished, giving it a special touch. Overall, it's a very well-made brush and a great option if you're looking for precision and quality in eyebrow tools.

A quick and elegant way to clean brushes between products. It's a heavier muslin-type cloth, and it feels like a superior experience compared to a microfiber cloth. It also looks very nice. I considered buying several with my order, and now I regret not doing so.

First of all, the density doesn't quite convince me. It's not a dense brush, but it also lacks the lightness and airiness that facilitate a blended application. It falls into a somewhat impractical middle ground, resulting in uneven product distribution. I expected much more softness from Saikoho hair. However, compared to Chikuhodo's T-series brushes, this one feels noticeably less soft and refined on the skin. In short, I don't find it to be a well-balanced or remarkable brush within its price range, especially considering other higher-quality Japanese options in the same segment.

I bought the Bisiodo B-C-02 brush with high expectations, but honestly, I didn't like it. The bristles are very soft, but the brush isn't airy, it lacks movement and flexibility, which means it doesn't blend the product well and isn't pleasant to use. It feels stiff for the type of brush it's supposed to be. Also, the bristle cut isn't well finished; instead of having a rounded and uniform shape, it ends in a sort of point, as if it were poorly cut, which significantly affects application. On the plus side, the wooden handle has a very nice finish and feels like good quality. Overall, I don't find it useful, and frankly, I don't know what I'm going to use it for. For me, it's been a disappointing purchase.

It works very well with pigmented blushes. Over time, it has lost some of its softness. It's not one of my favorite Chikuhodo brushes.

Saikoho goat hair bristles are extremely soft and feel very gentle on the skin. They apply blush evenly and blend effortlessly, leaving a natural finish. The brush head is dense and rounded, allowing for easy build-up, though it can cover a large area, so it's not the best choice if you're looking for precision. It works very well for light bronzer or for setting makeup.

The bristles are very soft and pleasant to the touch, perfect for applying color lightly and blending effortlessly. It's a fairly large eye brush, so it works best for quick, single eyeshadow looks or for applying product to larger areas.

Excellent quality cheek brush. The silver fox hair is incredibly soft, yet it has enough resilience to pick up and blend product evenly. It gives a very natural, diffused finish without patchiness. Best suited for light to medium application rather than intense color payoff. Works beautifully with blush and powder.

I thought that being made of natural hair it would be softer, but it's just as stiff as synthetic ones and scratches the skin just the same.
