JAPONESQUE – Make Up Brushes from Heaven – Plus win a small set.

JAPONESQUE Logo
How many times have you looked for that perfect brush? The one that works like a dream, feels soft to the touch and just seems to make, making that perfect look seem so easy? I have many times and through it I have found brushes I love, brushes I hate and brushes that make me go meh.

These brushes I was kindly sent to review most definitely come into the love category
JAPONESQUE
The Travel Brushes were launched earlier in the year at Boots with a select selection of other brushes been launched in John Lewis at the same time.
All Japonesque brushes are produced with a professional in mind:
Blush Brush 924 – £24
JAPONESQUE Blush Brush 924
This is probably the most used brush I own, mainly as normally I will just slap my makeup being rather lazy and using my fingers *shock horror* but I always use a brush for my blush. This gorgeous tool can be used to  apply loose powder, blush, bronzer and useful for highlighting, contouring and blending.

The one thing you can’t fail to notice is the softness of these brushes the shape given to the brush is flat on the sides and rounded at the top. Which is what makes this brush good for the given uses. The flat is good for patting and pressing on to give a more vibrant colour. I have yet to have a hair loss from this brush and it has definitely become a must have brush for me.
Brow / Lash Comb 844 – £9.75
JAPONESQUE Brow / Lash Comb 844
My bugbear with Brow/Lash brushes is they all seem to fall apart on me, so it’s with a big smile on my face I report this one is still in one piece after a month.

The brush side is fantastic for brushing your brows if they are anything like mine into some sort of tamed form before giving them a preening and pampering with your chosen eyebrow makeup. While the comb side is great for running through your lashes to comb out any nasty clumps. The fine rounded tips make it easy to separate your lashes into an eye fluttering finish.

Eye Shadow Fluff Medium 830 – £14.75
JAPONESQUE Eye Shadow Fluff Medium 830
Gorgeously soft as all the brushes I tried the brush again sports flat sides and a rounded top, the flat sides fantastic for packing on the pigment to give your eyes that WOW factor while the rounded top is great for defining and working round your eye crease.

As the name of the brush suggest this brush is gorgeously soft and fluffy and has been created with tapered fibers to make working with it all the easier.

Concealer 910 – £10.50
JAPONESQUE Concealer 910
Great for using with concealer if your a spotty face like me, or for using with your favourite highlighter the flat side is brilliant for blending while the tip gives you the ability to easily hit the right ‘spot’ with the concealer.
JAPONESQUE Brishes
All these brushes are super soft and use synthetic fibers, although classed as a travel brush the handles give enough room to hold without feeling your pushing it or giving hand cramp for trying to hold onto that small end part. I honestly cannot think of a bad word to say about these brushes, and they will most definitely become a staple within my make up brushes.

But that’s not the end… How would you like to give Japonesque a try?

  1. The powder brush looks fab :) I literally just read an article in a magazine about Japonsque, I soooo need to try these brushes!!! xoxo

  2. Hi, I found you on FB (Beauty Blog Boosters) and here I am. Great post. Very informative and great pics! I’ve never tried Japonesque before but I’d love to try them :)

  3. All the brushes look and sound great!  I must admit, the first brush I would go for is the Japonesque Blush Brush – I tend to use my powder brush as a powder and blush brush and because of this, my face powder and blusher mixes!

  4. Lovely! I own a Japonesque case (I scrimped, saved, borrowed… and finally got it), and attest to its high quality. If the brushes are the same, I would be very pleased to own a set!

  5. They all look really great, the eye shadow fluff would be very useful!  They make my set look rather ancient!

  6. My favourite would be the one with the lash/brow comb.  I really need one of these, my eyelashes need retraining to behave!  They look so crap at the moment when I put mascara on that by the time I’ve finished I look like I have just 4 lashes on each eye!

  7. I really love these brushes an essential tool in any make-up bag alas my brushes are old and coming to end of their life :)  

    I love the Japonesque eye shadow crease brush,can never find a good brush to do crease work this looks fab :)   

  8. I really like the angled foundation brush – the results are so much better than using my fingers, and it’s really good at blending

  9. My favourite Japonesque brush is the ‘medium natural pro eye shadow fluff brush’ … a friend recently advised me that blending was the key to applying eye make up as you get older (which I am) and this brush would be perfect for blending eye shadow for a softer, more natural look.

  10. Japonesque Synthetic Concealer/Foundation Brush, my fav.. you cant go wrong with an awesome foundation brush!!.. once you have a good base your ready … great comp.. all girls need good make up brushes

  11. My fave brush would be the monster Blusher brush (924), nothing like a touch of pink on the old cheeks to revive a tired face : )

  12. I love the Japonesque Synthetic Concealer/Foundation Brush … it’s curved to reach those tough little spots around the eye. It’s antibacterial properties are a major bonus as well!

  13. I like the Eye Shadow Fluff brush best because it is very comfortable to use on the delicate skin of the eyes.

  14. these look great especially the angled eyeliner brush would so love to try them out. following and tweeted @gemkats.

  15. I haven´t used Japonesque brushes but I´d like to try the eyeshadow Fluff brush. I´d love to perfect the art of perfectly blended eyeshadow.

  16. Great give-away, I’d love to win.  If it’s a single brush, can I have a foundation please, the whole set would be fabulous.

  17. I already the have Japonesque Touch-Up Razor which is fantastic but is really hard ot get hold of all of a sudden.  I’d love to try th angled foundation brush because I am a sucker for foundation applicators – I’ll try everything new that comes out from sponges to flat brushes, stippling brushes etc

  18. I really like the  Japonesque Blush Brush, I would find this useful for my face bronzer as well as blusher.

  19. The Japonesque Smudger Brush is by far my favorite, i always end up with loads of make-up on my finger tips so this would be a finger saver.
     

  20. Definitely the eye shadow fluff medium 830, I love trying new eyeshadow looks and would be lost without a good fluff brush! Love the website, great reviews shall be keeping my eye on it :)  

  21. Just the thought of using these lovely brushes would make me want to get up earlier to experiment with my makeup regime!

  22. I love the concealer brush; I pretty much only use concealer anyway, but it always makes application so much easier!

  23. The concealer brush – with a 5 year old, a teething nine month old and a few weeks away from number 3, lord knows i need a bit of “assistance” in the monring. This brush would be perfect :)

  24. I like the look of the Pro Angled Foundation brush. I usually apply liquid foundation with a sponge so I would be interested in trying a brush to compare the finish.

  25. I would have to say that it would be the concealer brush, as even though I am 31 next week I still suffer from acne. 

  26. The Angled Eyeliner Brush, looks great and would help to do a good job of eyeliner, which for me is important as im rubbish at getting it right

  27. The Brow Brush looks fab. Makes such a difference to have good quality brushes. And as a bonus, I have a good tip… always wash them with baby shampoo and they’ll repay you by lasting for years! You’re welcome ;)

  28. The brow/ lash comb as I have a lot of trouble with applying mascara & putting too much by trying to make sure I have all my lashes coated then the lashes end up sticking together so this helps to separate my lashes.
