Japanese brushes - Chikuhodo, Koyudo, Hakuhodo, Suqqu, etc

Not me! I purchased the face and the cheek brush from Sephora, but I returned them, while I loved the brush head, I didn't like the handles.

Ok. What didn't you like about the handles?

I purchased the cheek brush from Sephora during the August sale and returned it. I think I'd rather hold out and eventually purchase the Suqqu somehow.

I also agree. I didn't like the handle of it. It felt so...cheap? Super lightweight. I'm not saying I need all my brush handles to be like Sonia G, and I admittedly don't know everything about brushes, but even Wayne Goss or, heck, even Zoeva have more heft.

All that to say...I bought the Surratt highlight brush and medium smoky eye brush during this sale. It's supposed to be delivered tomorrow. I really love Wayne Goss #2 , and I'm hoping the Surratt will be an elevated version of that one.

I felt like the handles were cheaply done for the price and the handle on my cheek brush chipped easily, so for the price point I went with the Chikuhodo Z1 and Z4 instead

I agree! they definitely skimped on the handles, chikuhodo, Wayne Goss, and Sonia G all did a fantastic job with their handles.

Yes, the handles feel very lightweight. They don’t seem to match the great quality of the brush heads.

Look at the announcement that landed in my box a hot second ago!
I am totally lusting her eye brushes, but the white hair ones I really want have been sold out.

I saw this too! The handles look different but the brush shapes look similar to the ones she already has... I’m intrigued!!

After looking carefully at the picture, the brushes look new except for maybe one of them. And the handles definitely look narrower at the end in comparison to her previous brushes. I wish we knew when they’ll be out so I can avoid going broke!

These are a brand new set of eye brushes from Sonia g. I have the cash waiting for these. I almost went nuts at the most recent 20% sale that ended back on nov 19th, but I restrained myself!

Sonia G. on Instagram: “I wanted these 5 PRO eye brushes to be the best workhorses in each category: Pencil, Builder, Worker, Crease and Blender; they'll work…”

Yes! It would be nice to know price ahead of the release.

I sorry. I have to say at times Beautylish goes overboard with the emails and texts. This is the one time I was happy to get one.

I didn't receive anything from BL until 1pm today which is useless b/c that's when they launched for everyone.

I was inundated with Jeffree Star collection emails.
