a dense and soft brush with a sloped design that's perfect for one-and-done shadows and under eye concealer.

handcrafted in Kumano, Japan by artisans using natural fibers.

Product Details+
brush 36 features natural goat hair bristles in a dense, slanted dome shape often compared to a fingertip or kitten paw. the ferrule is angled to create a gradient from short to long bristles across the brush head. it has a matte black handle that is shorter than traditional brush handles. the brush head is notably larger than most eye brushes, sitting closer in size to a small face brush.
Reviews+
roughly 68% of community members use brush 36 primarily for concealer, praising its ability to blend product smoothly under the eyes and around the nose. about 25% highlight its effectiveness as a one-and-done eyeshadow brush, especially for hooded eyes. the soft, dense bristles and unique slanted shape receive near-universal praise. the most common concern, noted by approximately 18% of community members, is that the brush head is larger than expected and can feel too big for smaller eyes or petite faces. a small number of community members noted the natural bristles can absorb more product than synthetic alternatives.
Usage+
  • blending undereye concealer (68%)
  • one-and-done eyeshadow application (25%)
  • setting undereye area with powder (12%)
Product FAQ+

can i use this for cream eyeshadow or just powder?

about 25% of community members use brush 36 with cream or liquid eyeshadow and report smooth, even application. the dense bristles pick up cream formulas well and deposit color in a single pass. it also works with powder shadows, though community members note it excels at laying down a wash of color rather than detailed placement.

will this work on hooded eyes?

many community members with hooded eyes consider brush 36 a go-to for quickly placing shadow across the lid and into the crease. the slanted shape lets you stamp color right where you need it. however, roughly 15% of community members with smaller or very hooded eyes find the brush head a bit large for precise work and suggest pairing it with a smaller blending brush for detail.

how do i use the slanted shape for concealer?

most community members pat or press the flat, domed side against the undereye area, similar to how you would use a fingertip. the angled tip helps reach the inner corner near the nose. about 68% of community members report this technique blends concealer quickly with minimal strokes, and many follow up with a light sponge tap to set.

is this brush too big for small eyes or a small face?

about 18% of community members mention the brush is larger than expected. those with petite faces or smaller lid space sometimes find it better suited for concealer than eyeshadow. many community members in this group still love it for undereye work and setting powder, but prefer a smaller brush for detailed shadow placement.

what concealers pair well with brush 36?

community members report good results with a wide range of formulas, from liquid concealers like nars soft matte to stick and pot concealers. thinner, more liquid formulas tend to blend most seamlessly. a small number of community members noted that very thick cream concealers can look slightly streaky and suggest finishing with a sponge for those textures.
