Hakuhodo the master Japanese brush makers world renowned for making the most perfect makeup brushes has teamed up with Sephora Pro to create a collection of limited addition brushes comprised of never seen before patented bristles and sculpted into new unusual shapes. Each brush has been lovingly crafted by hand using traditional Japanese tools to ensure every makeup love can enjoy professional levels of precision and versatility. All the brushes in the line are made of super soft synthetic bristles, come in a beautiful keep sake box and have the most special red handles and matte black ferrules. They also all have Japanese names that goes back to Hakuhodo's heritage. I am usually not one to go for synthetic bristles unless it's intended for a cream or liquid product but these brushes are so incredibly soft and pick up powders beautifully that I have changed my mind on that.
Kusabi the luxury angled powder brush is a new innovation in powder brushes for me. I have always thought sweeping your powder over you foundation must surely disturb it so I have always been a 'tapper' or 'dabber' when it comes to powder. This is what this brush is specifically made for, simply tap in you're powder and then tap onto your face. Whether that's just your T-zone or you're whole face, the angle makes it really easy to get in hard to reach areas such as around your nose and under the eyes.
Otsubu is a really unique shaped powder brush and in fact my favorite from the collection. It's large teardrop shade makes is perfect for blending and that's the reason I love it for bronzer. Using this brush is a sheer joy and it just applies bronzer perfectly. I tend to apply the product to the side of the brush and then blend out with the tip, it seriously is a dream brush.
Kotsubu is a beautiful highlighter brush, basically a smaller version or Otsubu it applies product under the eyes and on the cheekbones perfectly. I like setting under my eyes with it best or blending out liquid or cream highlights. It also picks up powder highlights really well.
Ougi is the brush that can be used for just about anything, contour, bronzer, blush, powder, basically anything and everything. It is a small basic blush shaped brush and I love it for cream or liquid blushes. It blends them out beautifully and never leaves things looking heavy or cake-y. The last brush in the collection is
Kusuriyubi a multi-use small angled brush that can be used for powder and liquid formulations. Perfect for concealer, cream and powder shadow, as well as detailed highlighting. I personally love using it with powder shadows for the quick all over the lid 'sweeping' method. It applies just the right amount of color and blends out everything at the same time, perfect for that rushed morning eye look. All the brushes are available Online at
