Frequently asked questions

What is a Kumano brush (Kumano fude)?

Kumano fude are traditional handmade brushes from Kumano in Hiroshima, Japan, where brush-making has been a craft for around two centuries. Neoi carries Chikuhodo Kumano fude, each head shaped and finished by hand.

Are Kumano makeup brushes worth it?

Their hand-shaped natural and synthetic bristles pick up and release product smoothly, feel soft against the skin and last for years with simple care, which is why Kumano fude are a long-term favourite among makeup artists.

How do you clean Kumano makeup brushes?

Rinse the bristles in lukewarm water with a little gentle soap, reshape the head and dry it flat with the bristles hanging over an edge. Avoid soaking the handle. Our blog has a step-by-step brush-care guide.
