A gel tip blender on one side of this tool mimics the effect of fingertips without absorbing product like a traditional sponge. Hygienic and easy to wipe clean, this applicator adapts to the contours of the face to build optimal coverage. The red, diamond-shaped synthetic brush head looks and feels fluffy but contains a large amount of dense fibers at its core to maintain the tool’s shape and provide the perfect balance of strength and flexibility. This ergonomic brush is compatible with creams, powders, liquids, and gels. Each intricate brush is hand-crafted in Japan by a team of seasoned artisans. Use the gel blender to dab liquid or cushion formulas onto the face and the red, diamond-cut brush to buff and diffuse pigment for a soft-focus finish. Brush End: Spray brush cleaner on tissue and gently wipe brush against tissue. (You may see some of the red dye transfer to the tissue in the first few cleanings. This should stop after the initial cleanings. The dye is completely safe. It’s not unlike a pair of deeply dyed denim jeans in the first few wearings and washings.)

Gel Blender: To clean, use Perfect Cleansing Oil on a cotton pad and gently wipe product off the tip.
