Review, Price, Dupes, Buy Online Shiseido Perfect Foundation Brush

Do you watch Elton Fernandez videos? The key makeup artist at all of the fashion weeks and Maybelline India is a pretty big star on YouTube too. His makeup tutorials are so simple to follow and he shares such amazing makeup application techniques which he uses to create stunning looks on the ramp. Why am i telling all this? Because the Shiseido Perfect Foundation Brush i am going to review today is the star of most of the videos done by Elton! He uses this brush in almost every look and that is why when i went to Delhi last month, i hopped, skipped and jumped to Sephora. Believe my luck, this was the last piece available there. So with a lightning speed, i put it in my basket…and i am so glad i did!

My Review of Shiseido Perfect Foundation Brush:

I feel that a perfect base in makeup is the result of the makeup brush that is used to apply it. You might have a very high end foundation but if you do not have a perfect brush to apply

it, the finish will not be how you wanted it to be. Makeup brushes are the most under rated makeup products in India as everybody thinks that fingers do the job well. I agree that in some products, fingers are the best bet for applying them but in the case of foundation, only brushes can give that flawless finish.

Shiseido foundation brush comes as a small little wonder with a 4 inch long handle. It is the smallest and the cutest brush in my vanity with perfect tapered bristles. It is made using traditional Japanese art of brush making. The shiseido brush bristles are dark brown in colour with a black handle. The angled cut makes the bristles very soft as they are densely packed.

This foundation brush can be used for all types of foundations be it liquid, cream or powder foundations. I even use it for applying my primer and highlighters. The finish is very smooth and even because of the densely packed bristles and the angled cut makes the brush reach difficult contours of the face. It is bit difficult to clean as the bristles are very dense so some of the product gets inside.

I use normal brush cleanser or shampoo for cleaning the Shiseido Brush and it takes a bit of efforts to clean it completely. The only problem is that it takes a whole day to dry completely. There is absolutely no shedding of bristles and the perfect foundation brush becomes as good as new after cleaning. The price is slightly on the expensive side but it is still cheaper compared to other foundation brushes like MAC and chanel. Brushes are a great investment and the whole look changes with the right brush.

This is the only product from Shiseido that i have tried and now i am  looking forward to try some other brushes as well as products from the brand.

  1. I use the RT Expert and a non-brand one, exact dupe of this which I purchased from Amazon last year. Works really great. I will surely look out for this one.

  2. I don’t have the same brush. But I have two Sigma F80 s and quite a few $2 dupes. Having used those, I would say now that we have options, you might not want to shell out that much on a single brush. I tend to wash my foundation brush after every two uses which is why I bought those backups to abuse and they are doing pretty fine even over the years.
