Review by Cheryl

I just THOUGHT I had soft brushes (all from Kumano artisans), but this is THE softest brush I have ever felt. It's like whispers and clouds and feathers on your face. It is so soft that I only use it for finishing powders and final finishing brush on my face. There is no way this brush could irritate anyone's face. I love it! If you are looking for the softest and best-quality squirrel brush ever, get this one while you can! I am very pleased with this brush.

The handle is exactly like the Red Squirrel Blush Brush, but the hairs are different. This one has not had the tips trimmed. It is actually not as soft as the Red Squirrel Blush brush, but the difference is minuscule. It is actually better for blending the highly pigmented blushes I use. But both the Canadian and Red Squirrel brushes are AWESOME! If you can handle the price, this brush is SO worth it!

This brush is the softest blush brush I have ever used! It is even softer than the Canadian Squirrel blush brush, which I had to have. I've become obsessed with Kumano brushes. Anyhow, the Red Squirrel Blush brush is very easy to use with highly pigmented blushes; very easy to control how much I put on, and it blends beautifully. I think I got the last one of these, so too bad for YOU! But if it comes back, don't pass it up. It is so worth the price!

There are almost words for this brush! I just thought I had great brushes already, but this one is beyond amazing. It is SO SO soft, yet very efficient. I use it for powder (mineral) foundation. Finish is light to medium. It feels like butterfly wings on the face, but very efficiently and quickly applies and polishes the powder. Fantastic! I ordered this one along with the fu-pa01 and fu-pa02. I am beyond happy with this purchase! I also want to mention the shipping was lightning fast! I got it faster shipped from Japan than many things I have shipped right here in the U.S.
