Hakuhodo Kokutan Makeup Brushes (Set of 7)
High-quality ebony brushes with leather case
What do Japanese calligraphers, painters, kabuki actors, makeup artists, and lacquer craftspeople all have in common? They all need high-quality brushes, like those that have been produced in the workshops in the town of Kumano near Hiroshima for centuries. Hakuhodo is one such workshop that has been active for decades and with the Hakuhodo Kokutan Makeup Brushes, it offers you a unique cosmetics toolkit with brushes created using Kumano's traditional technique and handles made of ebony.
Open the trifold cowhide case the Hakuhodo Kokutan Makeup Brushes comes in and find seven brushes that cover the whole spectrum from checks and forehead (powder and blush) to eyes, eyebrows, and even lips. Essentially, this is a one-stop kit that can accompany you everywhere, from your home to your workplace and evening outing. Depending on their function, the brush bristles are made either exclusively of real animal hair (goat, squirrel, weasel, and water badger) or of a combination of hair and synthetic fibers. The ebony wood gives the handles a special feel that makes you not want to put them down!
