The Z-5 brush has been incredibly useful. It's essential for my eye makeup and saves time. I was amazed at how much of a difference good tools can make.

I bought the same item a long time ago, and since the feel had changed, I decided to repurchase it. The brush is gentle on the skin and firm enough to easily apply across a wide area of the eyelid.

I love all my other z series brushes but I got a dud brush that had an unpleasant smell. It wasn’t squirrel smell. It was something else. I purchased another z-5 and z-11 from another retailer (most likely from another batch) and I am happy to report the second brushes don’t have that problem. Lovely brushes overall. I like the thickness and shape and functionality.

Thank you for your comments. Perhaps it's smells of glue which joint brstile and ferrule, or smell of handle paint. Especially for during international shipping, it happens depends on delivery environment and you may feel it when open from parckage. Please keep using them and smell will disapear guradualy.

I wanted a brush for softly applying eyeshadow, so I chose gray squirrel hair. It has just the right amount of firmness and is easy to use. The tip’s thickness and angle are perfect for applying color to the lower eyelid.

This is my second purchase. The design of the Z series is simple and beautiful, with the handle length being just right, making it very easy to use. Since I prefer using a four-color eyeshadow palette, I have four brushes for each shade, and I use the Z-5 for the lightest color all over the eyelid. The brush is gentle on the skin and provides a soft, natural color payoff, which I love.

I was looking for a thicker brush and found this one. It’s very gentle on the skin but still has firmness, which I’m very satisfied with. Although the handle is shorter than what I’m used to, I found it to be very easy to use once I got used to it.

I previously purchased a cheek, eyeshadow, and lip brush set as a 60th birthday gift for my mother-in-law. She loved it and wanted another eyeshadow brush, so I bought the Z-5 as a Mother's Day gift. She was delighted with how different the eyeshadow application felt.

When purchasing an eyebrow brush, I wanted a good eyeshadow brush as well, so I bought this one. It’s fluffy but not too soft, and it creates a beautiful gradient. The color builds up gradually, giving a natural 3D effect, which I love. Thank you for adding the engraving as well.

This is the best eyeshadow brush I’ve ever used. My previous brush used to irritate my eyelids, so I searched for something softer and larger, and I’m glad I found this one. It applies color gently without looking too obvious, and I love the soft tones it creates.

The bristle density and quality are outstanding, holding powder naturally without waste and creating a veil-like effect in makeup. Even with darker colors, it doesn’t apply too strongly at once, allowing for a natural gradient depending on the pressure applied.
