So many talented rivals jostle around yourself. There are little difference
in make up technique between yourself and others. Professional makeup artists
are required the best performance in the limited time. Your clients may
satisfy your makeup.
Although, their real intention;
|
|
|
They might feel that something is wanting.
|
If it comes from your brush, you have been losing big.
|
|
For Makeup Artists, makeup-brush is a very important, also the only tool
that express your talent. So even though you have superior technique, your
reputation may different if you chose inappropriate brush. You may have
notice that ?
|
|
|
|
What skill is required for Makeup Artist ?
It must be 1) bring out client's individuality. 2) emphasis his/her attraction.
3) conceal the drawback. They are common sense, aren't they ?
|
|
|
|
How about inner personal magnetism ? |
|
|
|
No one can express his / her inner personal magnetism if clients were irritated
or sharp.
You are makeup artist, so are required to make your clients relax and bring
out their personal magnetism. This is the mark of a Professional Makeup
Artist. |
|
|
|
You may be, as a makeup artist, usually noticed that external appearance,
internal mind and behavior are linked strongly. |
|
|
|
Makeup is NOT just makeup the external appearance. It covers drawback, bring up hidden charm, and then create actors' / actress' humanity, including inner tenderness , intensity and weakness on occasion.
The demand "Makeup Artist" is whom leads clients to relax to
bring up inner personal magnetism when makeup.
I really wish to have makeup brushes that can express the talent of makeup
artist, and at the same time, tempt clients to relax deeply.
Makeup brush is only the tool connects to clients and makeup artist. So,no
need for an "unused work of art ". |
|
|
This enquiry from a customer is our starting point.
|
|
|
So, we put all distracting thoughts out of our mind and only aim to produce
" really good makeup brush" for professional makeup artists,
which is durable, easy to use and trustworthy.

First of all, I would like to say the brushes are very soft at the ends,
which is a great for the skin... Many of my clients say that the
brushes are extremely kind for the skin as it feels like a mini massage!...
I like the stem of the brushes also because they are not
too long nor too short...
It is perfect for my makeup belt, and also perfect
for clients to use for traveling...
Your powder and blush brush works
fine... Although,
I am not complete satisfied with your eyeshadow
brush...
yes, it is soft, and picks eyeshadow up, but it is not practical for blending,
only for layering on colors... I feel I can't blend eye shadows as
quickly and sufficiently with this flat eye shadow brush... As you
know,
good eye shadow brushes are very difficult to
find,
especially to fit consumer's likes/dislikes working with various cosmetic
brand product eyeshadows...
What I would like your company
to do is try to improve the eye shadow brushes for all my clients.
In order to create ideal makeup brushes, Winston Torr and brush craftsman
have been working together for several months and now,we are pleased to
release new brushes,

Samaria brushes are wonderful and high quality brushes, I wouldn't think
of using any other brushes on my clients. Their brushes are high
quality, soft, easy to use, and most important durable. I specialize
on special events and weddings and I remember a comment from one of my
brides when I applying her makeup was
 |
"wow, your brushes are so soft and relaxing that can sit here forever and have you do my makeup all day long"
... I told her thanks ... they are Samaria brushes and they are my favorite!. |
Now that's a comment I didn't expect to come from my clients and realize
it's better to splurge a little on your brushes and go for good quality
brushes that will last you forever because they do make a difference.
I have tons of brushes that I purchase and one flaw I noticed about most
of them are they do not last after and wear and tear of cleaning and washing
them, but Samaria brushes with hold up to my wear and tear and have been
my most durable brushes I've ever used. I do highly recommend Samaria
brushes to all my clients for personal use, and if you are a professional
I do recommend you investing in a set for your business and clients.
Sincerely.

Dear Toshiyuki, I received the brushes... They are beautiful
1) 3D Blush Brush, Regular handle, White
This brush is wonderful the length makes it perfect for my
personal cosmetic bag!
Me as a professional appreciate ghigh quality toolsh, this brush
is wonderful and super feminine, far away from being an industrial type of
brush. The diagonal angle of it delivers blush in a super delicate manner and
precision. I Love It!!!
2) 3D Eyeshadow Brush, Regular
handle, White
This brush is wonderful in quality. The size is great and as the same of
the white 3D Blush White brush, it is a high quality tool, practical and
super feminine.
To be honest with you I wouldnft use it for Eye Shadow. To my consideration
this brush is perfect for concealer.
The length, angle and consistency of the hair make it extraordinary for
concealer even in a very reciding areas of the face.
The skin and the area of the
eye lids are very sensitive and delicate, for these reasons I think the eye
shadow brushes need to be looser and softer as well for the consistency of
powder eye shadows.
This could be a
good eye shadow brush but to my taste is an excellent concealer brush, perfect
for a personal cosmetic bag.
3) 3D Blush Brush, Long handle, Black ( coming soon )
This brush as the same as the 3D White Blush
Brush is wonderful the length is perfect for a professional
use!
Me as a professional
appreciate high quality tools, this brush is wonderful and super stylish!! Once
again far away from being an industrial brush. The diagonal angle of it delivers
blush in a super delicate manner and precision. I Love
It!!! they are adorable!!!

Hi Toshiyuki,
I just received my makeup brushes
from www.1brush.net. Thank you so much.
My first reaction was pure delight. These brushes are of superior quality
right from the silkiness of the hairs to the comfort handle to hold onto.
The eyeshadow brush is unlike any I've found or bought in my 10 years
as a pro makeup artist. It allows for unique smudging and crease blending.
I think it's a great brush to ad intensity to the outside "V"
area of the eye when you want to darken shadow or add a pop of colour...that
is how I"d use it
(* This eyeshadow brush is not yet released to the market. It will be released
soon)
They are beautifully crafted all around. I am definitely keeping your company at the top of my suppliers list. These brushes compete easily with all the top named companies selling to the public here in North America, and at much higher cost.

I think the brush is extremely soft on the face and designed extremely
well.
There really isn't any brush out there like it. Visually, it looks
great and handles well. The weight if it is nice, not a heavy handle. My
only critique would be, for me, I think the width of the brush is a little
wide for the cheek area, however I think it's a personal choice for every
makeup artist. I feel, because of so much hair, you're picking up a lot
of product, however it does blend out so nicely. I think a smaller head
would be better. The price is definitely worth it for the quality of the
brush. It is made extremely well and it washed beautifully.
I would be happy to try any other brush and would certainly recommend them
to fellow makeup artists.
by far, the best blush brush I now own.

Hi Darling
I love the style cut and design
I truly am enjoying the brushes.
they apply well hair is a great texture no streaking and soft on skin and
smooth application.... good job. I would compare them to top of the line
brushes like Trish Mcevoy, Makeup Forever
my only dislike is the color of handle white with gold.
Thank you again and I would love to recommend your brushes.

I like how the bristles are shaped at a slant. The shape really deposits
the color well. I used the brush for bronzer as well as blush. It works
well with both products. I was happy with how soft the bristles felt. It
also held up well being cleaned with brush cleanser.
The only thing I did not like was the yellow gold with white colors. Also
it is to short for my professional use. But great for personal use.
I honestly like the white stem, but it would be better with silver instead
of gold. Most brushes have a black stem, so its nice to see something different!

I'm not crazy about the goat hair - it does retain it's shape well.
It is smooth to the skin and does seem to apply color evenly.

The brushes look very nice. The bristles look very good and the shape of
brush is excellent.
The brushes are very nicely balanced, feel very good to work with. The
bristles are soft yet firm enough to do the job required. The price
is reasonable as the presentation of the brush looks very professional.
I will ask a couple of my membership to try them also.

I used your brush that you have sent me and love it. It is a really nice
brush to work with.
I usually use the MAC blusher brush but find this one much softer and easier
to blend.
The hairs are very good quality on the brush. The only one thing I prefer
is a longer handle. This isn't really a fault but just preference. Otherwise
great brush and I will most likely order some brushes from you.
Thanks.

Hi Toshiyuki,
It seems beautiful !
I have found the brush to be a great applicator for powder blusher. It is
shaped so that the blush can be very accurately placed and blended.
I have enjoyed using it very much and my clients have said it feels
soft.
Many thanks Suzanne

Hi,
I am very happy about this brush.
It is so soft and easy to use on application.
The blending with this brush gives a very nice make-up final touch, with no traces on the skin.
The shape of the brush, for the blush in that case, is really useful, because
you can work in accordance to the different shape of the faces.
I think it is a brush of very good quality for professional make-up artist.
Too bad you don't sell theses brushes here in
France, because it would be very successful in the fashion city of Paris
!

Hello Toshiyuki
,
The brush feels very soft on the skin, the handle is very nice and sits
well on the hand, it has a great weight not to heavy to handle.
I've found the design very aesthetic although I'm not too fan of the top gold
part, but that is my personal opinion.
The brush could be perfectly used for powder too, for blush it does not leave
traces on the skin, it deposits the product really nicely and blends well.
For professional use I think it would be a great thing to have two sizes
made, a smaller version would be great for shading and highlighting cheeks.
The price is definitely reasonable for the quality of the brush and hopefully
you will be supplying Paris with this brand soon.

Our makeup brushes have been producing at Kumano, Hiroshima-Pref. Japan,
where famous for heartland of brushes. There are many brush producers here
in Kumano, and some of them are well-known among cosmetic industry world
widely. If you have top-end brushes in your box, see their origin. Most
likely they are produced in Kumano-Japan. Everyday so many quantity of
brushes are exporting to the world markets.
Although, |
|
|
Our Cosmetic brushes are not appear in volume in the markets
|
|
|
We told as before, Makeup Brushes are only the tool to express the talent of makeup artist. So, we believe it is our mission to produce unique brushes which are easy to use, superior quality and measure up to makeup artist's expectation.
|
|
|
|
Set forward this design, unfortunately, the method of producing "
good-brush " are limited.
We feel out the place to trust to "tradition " excessively, also
take pride in craftsmanship and then use them a publicity article. Because
Cosmetic brush is " Tool ", NOT a work of art.
Nevertheless, the reason why we continue to produce our brushes with traditional
method is, just because we understand that it is impossible to produce
the brushes of which satisfy the demand from professional makeup artists
without craftsman's skill.
It is not our business to produce " Superior Article - a Work of Art",
using far - exceeded materials lavishly. Because we know that makeup artists
are not Brush
Collector.
The mission to brush producer must be producing the good brush, such as
easy to use and functional for makeup artists and their clients. Craftsmen
must realize
the meaning of " skill". It is for actualize the mission - that
is;
|
|
|
|
1) Do NOT trim hair-end for form, nor use trimmed hair.
Trimmed hair prickle delicate skin. - such brushes just make your precious
clients feel bad
2) Do NOT take poor quality of the former stage of work in next stage of
work.
3) Materials selection and inspection at each stage of work are conducted by skilled craftsman only.
4) Brushes are made by hand-made method, enable to check all the stage
of work carefully and firmly, also clarify where the responsibility lay.
5) Think out for select, plant and mix the appropriate hair for actualize
the ideal brushes which have gentle touch, flexible and hold larger volume
of makeup.
6)Do NOT stand out single function, such as characterized it as "gentle
touch"
7) Remove unskilled workers from all the stage of work for quality control.
8) Do NOT purchase brush head from outscores and then set them on the stem.
We never do such assembly. Makeup brush is not the same as car assembly.
|
|
|
|
Without satisfy the above conditions, it is difficult to produce quality
makeup brushes which can get makeup artist to consent.
Nothing short of traditional method have done. That's why we choose this
method and have been producing brushes by craftsman's hand. |
|
|
|
This method requires much labors, and production quantity is limited, not suitable for mass production.
Although, consider " what is Makeup Brush for Makeup Artists ?",
no craftsman compromise its quality.
|
|
|
|
|
Makeup brush is a " Tool ". So we can not deny its aspect as
a " consumption article "
There is an opinion that "consumption article" must be low cost.
Thus, there are so many price-conscious products around the market.
Perhaps, you might have a question such as
|
|
|
| Why do we continue such method, which leads to cost increase ? |
|
|
User Benefits is above cost.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Higher Reputation from your clients.
|
|
|
|
|
You are professional makeup artist. So there are many talented rivals jostle
around yourself. There are little difference in make up technique between
yourself and others. Professional makeup artists are required the best
performance in the limited time. That is common sense.
|
|
|
|
If your clients might feel that something is wanting, and if it came from your brush, you have been losing big.
|
|
|
|
It is not likely that our brush can change everything, though, if makeup
brush helped to express your ability more, and then impress your clients
favorably, the reputation toward yourself must be raised more than now.
It is said that the difference in ability between Charismatic leader and
common makeup artist is slight, if it express numerically.
If your makeup surpass client's expectation slightly, the reputation toward
yourself will be increased more than you expected.
Charismatic leaders known this point very much, so they usually spare no effort to do so, and "Brush selection" is included in it.
|
|
|
|
Again, Makeup brush is only the " Tool ", express your talent
and imagination. Also, it is an important item for your clients, lead to
relax and bring their hidden personal magnetism.
|
|
|
|
If you, as a makeup artist, can bring your ability into full play, What
is going to happen ?
|
|
|
|
Remember, external appearance, inner mind and behavior are linked firmly.
|
|
|
| The performance of your clients may be changed to more sophisticated |
|
|
Its worth is immeasurable. Because the reputation toward Artist is strongly
linked to the reputation toward yourself.
|
|
|
|
And the necessary difference of money is just a small.
|
|
|
|
Do you believe it should be saved ? Of cause NOT.
|
|
|
|
We believe that meaningless craftsmanship for customers is a self-complacency,
or just an advertising.
|
|
|
|
|
Our craftsman takes shape the requirement from professional makeup artists,
and then release unique brushes. Let us unveil some of the customer-oriented
technique.
|
|
|
|
| Ex. 1 : 3D Brush Head (Product name : La. Magie) |
|
|
|
Multifunctional 3D curved surface
brush head .
Hold a larger volume of makeup
3D curve conforms to any surface contour
Shading and gradation
|
|
Lathering & Face-wash brush looks cute, though, it requires multifunction
such as bear hard and repeat use of lathering ~ face wash ~ dry, remove
makeup or sebum remained in pore, prevent from mold, and also its touch
must be gentle. To meet a requirement, we work out unique shape and hair
planting.
|
|
|
Ex. 2 : Lathering & Face wash brush
|
|
|
|
Lathering & face wash brush for women
Combined with Goat hair and PBT (Artificial hair)
PBT have set 3mm shorter than goat hair, so that
only natural hair can touch complexion skin.
|
|
This technique - combine different hairs and plant one hair some mm shorter
than other - can be applied to makeup brushes.
This technique is available to realize the ideal brush which has gentle
touch, flexible and holds larger volume of makeup.
|
|
|
Cosmetic Brush, Rise your reputation as a makeup artist
