The bristles, evenly distributed on the top surface, delicately apply a light layer of powder, creating a close adherence by keeping the tips in contact with the skin as you move the brush, resulting in a smooth and even finish. It pairs well with liquid and cream cosmetics, allowing for easy movement without drag, making it simple to control the amount applied.

from a blog

I recently had the opportunity to speak with the manager at Hakuhodo about brushes that would be great to introduce to my clients.

She recommended the J9000 series, which includes brushes J9001 through J9011. All of these brushes are made from 100% goat hair, with no synthetic fibers.

These brushes are relatively new and were released one year ago.

Key Features:

• Step-Difference Bristles: The bristles feature a step difference and evenly distributed on the top surface, They delicately apply a light layer of powder
• Resilient and Lightweight: While the bristles are not dense, they are resilient enough to pick up powder effectively and apply it lightly.

For instance, these brushes are perfect for applying Chanel powder with a light touch, and they can also adeptly handle shimmer and pearl products in moderation.

Versatility:

All brushes in this series can be used for both liquid and cream foundations.

Previously, Hakuhodo did not offer 'liquid foundation brushes,' making this series particularly unique.

Among them, J9001, J9002, and J9003 are especially suited for liquid and cream foundation applications.

===============

Please see a brush with the same shape as the J9001 and J9002,

We have similar shapes with slightly longer hair lengths and synthetic fiber tips that create a sheer application, which might be close to what you're looking for.

Specifically:

A brush similar to the J9001 (hair length: 34mm) is the J4001 (hair length: 40mm).

A brush similar to the J9002 (hair length: 28mm) is the J4002 (hair length: 32mm).

The J4001 and J4002 have longer hair lengths compared to the J9001 and J9002, and because their tips are synthetic fibers, the powder application will be lighter.

For example, if you are using powders containing fine particles such as shimmer, the synthetic fiber tips of the J4001 and J4002 would be suitable.

Regarding a smaller brush, we have the J528. However, unlike the light application of the J9002 and J4002 (which have sheer synthetic tips), the J528 has a flat tip with densely packed natural hair, resulting in a more substantial powder pickup.

While the hair length of the smaller J9002 and J4002 is shorter than the J528, the diameter of the J528 is larger, so it might not be the smaller size you are hoping for.
