I travel a lot for work and always reach for the good brush
set for travelling. The superb quality of Hakuhodo brushes in my collection has
convinced me to try this set. I’d heard that the hair length of
those mini brushes is the same as the normal size and before purchasing the
set, I picked the portable Kokutan eye shadow brush up to try first and it works
well for packing eyeshadow. So I bought the whole set with really high hope in
mind that it would replace those normal versions when I am on the go.
Unfortunately, after several trips I noticed that the cheek brush may not work
as well, especially under the dim light of some hotels. The bristles are soft,
but they are not dense enough to blend the color easily on my cheek. From the
website, it says the #4 from the left (picture from website) is an eye shadow brush for liner. Since I
don’t use the gel eyeliner, I bought it more with MAC219 (creating the v) in
mind because of its similar shape. Again, right away, I noticed that this brush
is much softer than MAC219 and it is not dense enough to give me enough control
over where I wanted the color to go. Overall, the tiny size of the brushes is convenient
for travelling but with its premium price I would say Hakuhodo Kokutan portable
mini set is not a mighty mouse for me.
