Kabuki Brush by
Tokidoki, you’re so cute!
Price: 28 bucks.
Long, soft bristles… they’re
Antibacterial?! That’s
What Sephora says.
Full, fluffy brush head
Distributes product over
A wide area.
Too much product? No.
And not too little, either.
Just the right amount.
Powder or bronzer
Application — oh so fast!
Fab for rushed mornings.
It’s a work of art;
Pricey, yes, but beautiful.
MBB Rating…
A+ 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

April 8th, 2010 at 4:01 pmI’m still so confused… what exactly are Kabuki brushes for, compared to other large powder brushes? >.<
Shannon says
April 8th, 2010 at 5:19 pmThey’re usually more dense than other large powder brushes, so they grab a little more product and distribute more to the skin, giving more coverage (if, for example, you’re applying foundation).
I like how I had to say “more” four times in one sentence 🙂 haha.
Kypris says
April 8th, 2010 at 9:04 pmOhh, ok 😀 thanks!
Catherine says
April 8th, 2010 at 4:03 pmDUDE. I am SO EXCITED. My friend said she’d get this for me for my birthday so we’re going to Sephora’s VIB event together tonight. I so can’t wait!! LOL! 😀 😀 😀
Glad to hear you like it! Some people were saying it’s too fluffy/not stiff enough for powder, but I usually use a pretty fluffy brush anyway so I’m hoping it works out for me!
Love the haikus too hahahaha. 😀

April 8th, 2010 at 7:21 pmI tried to make a
Haiku that rhymes, but I failed.
Please teach me how
:p
Not only mine doesn’t rhyme, I’m not quite sure if this is a Haiku…
Anyway, this brush looks intriguing. I’ve never seen a square-ish brush. I gotta pet it when I head to Sephora this Sunday (to use my discount coupon =D).
Is this brush dense? I mean I have a few Kabuki, they are dense, but they don’t quit feel like “strong” enough if you know what I mean. Like how the MAC ones is very…. hmmm… “strong”…
Anna says
April 8th, 2010 at 7:31 pmLove the haikus, this is fabulous! Fabulous.
Andrea says
April 8th, 2010 at 8:20 pmI was considering getting the MAC 134 brush solely for bronzer, but it’s around $64 (Canadian) so now I’m thinking this would maybe be a better buy? The Toki Doki kabuki is probably in the $30-something range here.
Karen says
April 8th, 2010 at 8:32 pmYou have pretty much convinced me that I need that brush. I wanted it from the moment i saw it, and since it gets such a good rating, I know it’ll be worth the money.
Ashley says
April 8th, 2010 at 9:20 pmI’m not a Sephora VIB yet… but I wasn’t even invited to the regular BI 15% sale at Sephora… 🙁
I really do want to get this Kabuki brush now though!
Sylvie says
April 9th, 2010 at 5:17 amI can’t believe you dare to put a brush in the paws of Tabs… what if he swiped at it and half the bristles came out? 😛
Sarah says
April 9th, 2010 at 11:28 amHahahahaha so funny
Marce says
April 9th, 2010 at 12:06 pmI am loving this
Haiku-type series of posts
They are fun to read!
You make me get all creative! I love this tokidoki line, the characters are so cute! And of course it doesn’t hurt when the product is as good as the packaging 😉

jenny says

Genie says
April 9th, 2010 at 7:21 pmAwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!! So Cute!
Raven says
April 9th, 2010 at 8:35 pmLove your reviews. Short and sweet ;D. Is this brush god for buffin’ in foundation? If not, is there a better one? I hear MAC 187 is the way to go, but I hate spending 50+ on one brush :p
Christy says
April 11th, 2010 at 8:52 amThanks for the review! I’m really liking that it is antibacterial. The one brush that I don’t like washing much is my kabuki brushes (hence why I have a few). They take a long time to dry and are so hard to clean.

April 11th, 2010 at 4:34 pmI love this, it’s soooo soft. Love the colors and graphics as well, even though I’m old!!!
Shabby says
May 8th, 2010 at 9:07 amIt looks so soft & fluffy that I would want to just brush it on my face for the heck of it. XD The design is very cute too. As expected of Tokidoki. 🙂
