BRUSH 02

$22

a firm shader brush that's dense and soft at the same time - optimized for maximum pigment payoff. works with both powders and creams and is perfect for laying down pigments, quick smokey eyes and delicate work near the lower lashline.

the 02 is our flagship shader brush and has been optimized to work for all eye shapes, including hooded eyes and monolids.

handmade in Kumano, Japan by master artisans using uncut natural hair.

bristle length: 10mm

Product Details+
brush 02 is a flat shader constructed with natural goat hair bristles in a dense, rounded paddle shape. the bristles are short and tightly packed into a compact brush head with a matte black ferrule and lightweight short handle. the white bristles taper slightly at the edges, allowing both broad and narrow application angles.

  • smudging shadow or liner along the lower lash line (22%)
  • applying cream or liquid eyeshadow (15%)
Product FAQ+

can i use this for shimmer and glitter shadows or just mattes?

brush 02 works well with both. around 65% of community members specifically mention using it for shimmer, glitter, or metallic shadows, noting it picks up and deposits these formulas with strong color payoff. many say it performs close to using a fingertip for foiled shades. it handles mattes equally well for packing color onto the lid.

will this work on hooded eyes?

many community members with hooded eyes consider brush 02 a go-to brush. roughly 12% of community members specifically mention hooded eyes, and most find the compact size fits their limited lid space well. a small number of community members noted it felt slightly large for very small hooded lids and preferred a smaller version for more precise placement.

can i use this as a one-and-done eyeshadow brush?

yes, this is one of the most common ways community members use brush 02. the shape and density let you sweep a single shade across the lid quickly and blend the edges with the tapered tip. around 10% of community members describe it as their only brush needed for a simple, everyday eye look.

does it work with cream eyeshadow or only powder?

brush 02 works with both. about 15% of community members specifically mention using it with cream, liquid, or stick eyeshadow formulas and report smooth, even application. the dense bristles spread cream products without dragging or leaving streaks on the lid.

can i also use this on my lower lash line?

absolutely. around 22% of community members use brush 02 to apply or smudge shadow along the lower lash line. the tapered edge and compact size allow controlled placement without depositing color too broadly. many also use it to smoke out pencil or gel liner for a soft, diffused look.
