Shop Kabuki Brushes

For a flawless finish, we love a good kabuki brush. Traditionally designed with a short, stubby handle, today’s kabuki brushes come in all shapes and sizes, from travel-friendly styles that fit perfectly in a makeup bag to long-handled designs that offer precision and control.

What are the benefits of a kabuki brush and why should I use one?

Kabuki brushes, originally used to apply white rice powder in Japanese Kabuki theatre, have grown to become a makeup bag staple. Not just for powders and mineral foundations, these versatile brushes can also be used with liquid and cream products. With dense, firm and usually short bristles, kabuki brushes deliver a flawless, airbrushed finish to the skin. They can be used to stipple on product for extra coverage, or to sweep powders lightly across the skin for an effortless look.

What are the best kabuki brushes?

Aspect’s Kabuki Brush is an ideal choice for mineral foundation lovers, with triple-milled synthetic fibres that are luxuriously soft on skin. The bristles give your skin a seamless finish, and you can easily layer product for buildable coverage.

If you’re looking for a kabuki brush suited to liquid foundation application, we love MAKE UP FOR EVER’s N112 Buffing Foundation Brush. The dense bristles and rounded head quickly and easily buff foundation into skin, and the short, wide handle provides a comfortable grip.
