Good but smells

I know this is a very different brush but it’s handle is quite nice for control unlike longer handle brushes.

I think it does a good job of blending but the only gripe I have against it is its goat smell. I tried using it a couple of times but it’s something I can’t get over. All my brushes are goat hair but just this one smells. If it doesn’t have the smell I’d love to keep it. So so sad it didn’t work out for me.

Great Little Foundation Brush

So happy Beautylish stocks this product! It's a great little foundation brush. It's dense yet very soft. I use it with liquid foundation and it leaves a smooth finish. My skin is on the drier side and can be sensitive, and this brush does not irritate it. I've washed it a couple times and it's fine, no shedding issues. The handle is also lovely! There's a bit of a shimmer to it.

If you appreciate your expensive liquid foundations, just get it.

Flawless application, the size is just perfect

I think this brush is a very good brush, it is very portable, the brush rod is very short. But the disadvantage is also that the brush is very short. Because when the brush rod is very short, the smudges start to become laborious and prone to wrinkles. In general, this brush is more suitable for a cream contour than a foundation

best ever!

I am a bit of a brush junkie, owning a number of foundation brushes including Sonia G & Wayne Goss. I waited a while before ordering this brush. mistake! It is absolutely my favorite brush, not just for foundation, but for blending cream cheek products, concealer & even moisturizer. So worth the price, I hope Beautylish will start carrying more of Koyudo brushes. They are fantastic!

Shedding does not stop

I really wanted to like this brush but it never stopped shedding! I washed several times hoping it would help but after each wash there is still a tremendous amount of shedding. After applying foundation, I have to spend the next few minutes picking off all the tiny white hairs. Maybe one more wash? I'm not sure.

easy and efficient

I use this to apply my tinted mineral sunscreen. It is soft yet firm enough to move and spread around the liquid, and I feel like it soaks up less product than Artis' mini palm brush does. It is just the right size--not too small that it takes forever and not too big that it misses out on nooks and crannies. I enjoy the brush a lot. I might need to buy a backup, just to feel safe.

My go to foundation brush!

I have purchased numerous brushes and have not absolutely love any as my go to foundation brush until I bought this brush...love it. The perfect size...not too big and Not too small..the only thing that bothers me is the shedding. It is very minimal compared to the larger foundation brush I brought from this brand that furiated me with so much shedding...i wind up having to throw it away! I definitely recommend this brush!

Works Even With Ham Hands

I've had success with using Japanese brushes for powder makeup, but this is my first Japanese brush for the explicit use of cream and liquid makeup. I love that this brush is dense so it *feels* like it's applying makeup but soft enough that it doesn't hurt.

I found the brush did absorb my makeup, but it didn't stay when I cleaned my brush after I applied my makeup. My other natural hair brushes aren't as dense as this one, so I'm not sure if the amount of hair on this particular brush or the type of hair is to blame.

There is some shedding upon initial wash. I admit i have ham hands and apply everything with too much pressure. Initially I had streaks before I realized I shouldn't cram this brush into my face like a sponge. Now I have no problems. The brush does lose its shape (the price of the bristle softness) over time. I would advise reshaping the brush after cleaning.

Need more time

The brush is beautiful, and soft. My problem is I’m a sponge girl. I have to get used to using a brush for foundation again. With that being said, I know with mote practice I’ll love this brush.
