When you hold a Chikuhodo brush, you can feel the centuries of craftsmanship, passion, and respect that has gone into its craft. Chikuhodo artisans understand the contours of the face, the reflection of light, and different application techniques and cosmetics, and makeup styles and trends. It’s this understanding, as well as a dedication to quality, that ensures Chikuhodo has a dedicated following around the world.

The FO Series is the industry's first natural makeup brush made with silver fox bristles. The softness is comparable to gray squirrel, but with more resilience and elasticity. Encasing the bristles is an elegant olive tinted aluminum ferrule, with a hard maple wood handle that rests smoothly in your hand. Since the first release of the FO Series in 2020 (brushes FO-1 to FO-5), the collection quickly became a customer favorite. Chikuhodo have added to this FO-6 to FO-10, a mix of eyeshadow and powder brushes.

We've partnered with the wonderful Alicia Archer (aka Kinkysweat) to profile the FO series, and introduce the new additions to the collection. Get ready to learn about the characteristics of the bristles, what products to use them with, application tips, and what to expect from the functionality and feel.
