This brush has the same hair, shape and density as the BP018 for double the price, obviously due to the special handle. It it totally worth it if you love the yakusuqi luxury. Otherwise, i highly suggest to go for BP018 or even nicer version the Gray Squirrel Blush brush with red handle in the collectible collection which is also the same brush and same price as BP018. i have them all three land love each of them but if you have one, you dont really need the other.

I own 3 koyomo blush brushes in the different hair types: ototsuho, sokoho, saikoho. If you dont have them all 3 together, it is difficult to know which is softer and the difference is slight. I love them all for their uniqueness, but i would highly recommend the ototsuho ones (pink series or pink gradation) because they are such a high quality and softness they are truly worth it. This sokoho brush is outstanding. The handle looks very luxurious in a classic traditional style. Love all the Koyomo i have so i highly recommend them if you love the pom pom round shape in a blush brush like i do. <3

This is the type of blending brush you need to get several of :) it offers great control for blending colour in the crease since handle is short and it is the perfect size for travelling. I love to bring it with me in business trips and when im late for my date i just blend some bronzer in the crease with this brush and the application is always fast and smooth.

I have the face L and cheek blush and the quality is above extraordinary. Super soft but resilient hair. Hair splays out more than the honey canadian squirrel hair and seems more delicate and a tiny bit softer. It is a piece for collectors or a very special addition due to its rare hair. Not for daily use but it looks sturdy enough to endure use. Its a collection to be displayed and enjoyed :)

Perfectly bundled with extra high quality goat hair. Feels very soft but bristles look resilient and powerful to blend out color. Love the cute pink handle, though i wish it was longer. Same hair quality and softness as the pink series blush brush but handle is shorter (as short as the Fupas). Must have for travelling :)

I love pencil brushes and this one is in my top 3! Perfect for blending pencil eyeliner easily and very soft to the eyelids. Its the perfect rounded shape and a great dupe for the Suqqu S if you couldnt get your hands on it. Love it to pieces!

It took me a while to decide between the Z9, MK 2 and Z1. I know i will end up buying all of them but i had to decide which one to get first. I went for the z9 as i am pretty fair skin and like a nice wash of bronzer color with no harsh lines. The Z9 is perfect for that task and so soft and big but dense enough to be directional. I do not regret it and indeed i want to get the other two brushes more than ever hahaha

I placed my order on Dec 15 and got it on Feb 29. Yes... Thats a heck of long waiting for this brush. I even considered to cancel but i waited...and oh my God, Koyudo did it again!!! So many people talking about Suqqu and Chiku Z series and here we have a not so much talked about amazing series (i didnt purchase the set but 4 brushes from it). It is soooo soft and the handle is well made and sleek. I think i must complete the collection. Highly recommend but you will need to be patient :)

Its my first fan brush and i never thought this type of brush will become one of my favourites. It can be tricky to use if you have big hands but does a nice job for contouring or highlighting. The squirrel hair is very soft in this brush.

Super soft large shader brush. Perfect size for all over the lid color.Im very suprised for the softness of pine squirrel hair of these line. Highly recommend.

When i first got this brush i thought: is that it? but after using this tiny brush it has become a big love. The slanted shape helps get the foundation in all areas and i find it doesnt absorb too much liquid foundation like other brushes do. Great for travelling too. Highly recommend!

Wish it was a bit smaller and precised but its so soft and it does blend perfectly. very soft pine squirrel hair and great value!

If all pine squirrel hair is rough like this one, welcome to heaven! I cannot be happier with the softeness of this brush. Every time i use it i wonder: can it get any better than this? Koyudo BP series is such a high value series. You cant go wrong with any of the brushes of this line. Even this pine squirrel feels like the softes gray squirrel. love it!

This brush is so underrated. Maybe the simple handle look doesnt do him justice but its such a soft goat hair brush that i cant believe its price tag. Really great value! Its perfect for picking up the Guerlain Meteorites pearls powder and for face powder or even bronzer (if you are pale like me and like an overall healthy bronzed look instead of a precised contour appplication). Im considerign a back up! yes, its that good.

For those of you wondering which brush to use to apply your Tom Ford Shade & Illuminate contour or even highlighter, this is the brush you are looking for.

It is very difficult to rate this brush and be fair enough since at this point i am really spoilt with the great quality of other Japanese brushes. If you are looking for a retractable elegant brush, this one is OK and good for setting face powder, and apply blush. However, if you are like me looking for the softest one, then you can skip this one.I also find the handle tends to move so the brush bristles go down like hidding back inside the handle. I dont know if this happens with all retractble brushes since this is my first one, but it bothers me a bit.

This is an easy brush. The one to have if you are starting to build your collection. It is not the softest out there, but it gets the job done when you are sleepy in the morning and dont need to pay much attention to what you are doing. I love the rounded shape and i find it is dense enough for contouring/bronzer as well.

If you are looking for the softest goat hair and rounded shape blush brush good enough to also apply bronzer and setting face powder, this is a great option. I wish handle was longer and heavier, but i love the design and that my finger prints will not be so visable in the handle of the brush.

If you dont mind white bristles getting dirty and are looking for the softest goat hair, this is the one. Same hair type as Tanseido EQ28. Great for applying less pigmented blush and bronzer. Sad to see it is no longer available here.

This is THE brush for setting face powder for those like me who dont like huge tappered face brushes. It is silky squirrel hair, very very soft and not too dense so you wont cake up your make up with lots of powder. It is a great shape to set undereye concealer and to get the powder around your nose and concealed areas without disturbing the creme product. Also perfect for powder highlighter. Sad to see it is no longer available here.
