Koyudo Red Squirrel 3-Piece Brush SetMakeup BrushI love this set.
I had high hopes for this as I own the original Koyudo Red Squirrel and the Yakusugi set and it did, in fact, live up to my expectations and more. I love red squirrel hair as it's the silkiest type out there. The blush brush isn't as dense as my other two RS brushes, but it's wonderful for highlighters. The small e/s brush is awesome with darker colors and precise placement of said colors. The large eyeshadow brush is the MOST FANTASTIC brush for applying color in the crease . It's my favorite and I've been using it daily since I received it and I have many, many brushes to choose from. I wish the large e/s brush would be released individually so I can own a few. Please CDJapan, please release this brush by itself.

fu-pa12-p Large Liquid Foundation Brush / Koyudo fu-pa Series pink / LMakeup BrushHappy to have it
At first I thought it was defective because of the funny shape, but after using it I saw the reason for that shape. It blends my liquid foundation really well and goes into the small crevices of my face, such as around my nose, with ease. It washes well, no staining at all. I don't use this to apply my foundation, but to buff it in after I've applied the foundation with fingers or a paddle/stippling brush. It's really soft and dense too, very comfortable to use.

BP034 Medium Eyeshadow / Koyudo BP High Class SeriesMakeup BrushNice laydown brush
It's not as soft or flexible as my other kolinsky brushes, but works just as well in laying down color. It can be used with multiple colors when wiped off between the different colors. Since it's flat and quite stiff, I find it's use quite limited, but still a nice brush to pack on color.

BP013 Foundation Brush / Koyudo BP High Class SeriesMakeup BrushFor cream bronzer too
Yes, it's a great blender for foundation, but it's size and density make it perfect with my cream bronzer as well.

fu-pa14 Gray Squirrel Powder Brush / Koyudo fu-pa Series BlackMakeup BrushVersatile brush
This brush goes with me when I travel. I use it to set my foundation with powder, for bronzer and even for blush. It feels like it has way more squirrel than goat in the mix. It has shed very little, feels solid in my hand and has a lovely handle with very subtle sparkles. I love it so much that I got it in white as well. The price for value is amazing.

Koyudo Gray Squirrel Blush Brush 32mmMakeup BrushAdorable little brush
Well, this is a really small brush, so it's perfect for out of town trips. It can handle all my powder blushes, from nude to red, it just may need more dips into the lighter blushes to build up intensity. It's very soft, of medium density and quite directional. I like the control I have with it. I feel it's worth it's price.
