Finishing and setting are two important parts of a makeup routine. Finishing helps to create an airbrushed finish, lightly sweeping powder over facial contours for a smooth, even look. Setting powder helps your makeup to last longer in place. You can use one or the other, or both together – in which case, the finishing powder will go on last. We've put together a collection of powder brushes for finishing and setting that are most reviewed by our customers.
I use this powder brush every single day. I have washed it at least once now, and it has bloomed beautifully. I use it for setting my foundation mostly. However, it would also work wonderfully as a finishing brush as well. If you are on the fence about this brush, just get it. You won't regret it at all. I would note that I've only used this for powder formulas. I do not use it for any creams or liquids. While I do agree that fox hair is a heartier hair than squirrel, I still believe it is delicate enough to warrant only using it with powders.

Picks up product well and application is smooth and seamless. Works wonderfully for setting with powder as well as buffing at the end on my oily skin. Of all my brushes, the FO series has my favorite handle design - comfortable to hold and the satin finish is exquisite. I have the FO-1 and FO-3

This is my third brush from the line. I had already got the slanted cheek brush an the large eyeshadow brush which had blown me away. The bristles from this line are super duper soft but sturdy. Powder is applied flawlessly and the brush picks up product well. I have previously used the Z1 for setting my (generally oily) face but now I prefer the FO Powder. From now on I will continue to use the Z1 as a finishing brush for final touches.

This brush makes you feel as if you are applying powders with velvet. It does not move your makeup, as some brushes do, because of the bristles and its ability to use a light hand for setting/finishing powders. Another winner!

My first experience with fox hair, it's very soft, I use it for setting powder and for finishing up and blending my whole face, can be used for bronzer and blusher as well

I just started building my fude collection, and I was worried that this brush would be too small as an all-purpose brush. But once I washed the brush it turned out to be very plush and soft! This is a perfect all-around brush for someone who is just getting into fude. It can do it all - setting foundation, blush, bronzer, even highlight. I’m so happy I bought this brush!

Love this brush for setting powder. I have the Z-1 and Z-9 for finishing powder. I don’t use these to set my face due to the squirrel hair. So I have been using this fox brush to set my makeup. I think the size is actually perfect for powder. Can wait until I can get more of the fox brushes.

This brush is beautiful, from the lacquered handle to the bristle shape, and it's a pleasure to use. I've recently upgraded my whole brush collection (from Zoeva and Makeup Geek) and I can see why Japanese brushes are so loved - the quality is there! This brush in particular is soft and ideal to apply setting powder. It has the right size to apply powder in all the face, except in the under eye area. For that purpose I use a smaller brush (Chikuhodo FO5).

I’ve been using this brush for a few weeks now and I love it. It reminds me of chikuhodo Makie MK-2 brush. The bristles are soft and perfect for setting power.
Valerie Banda-Rodriguez, United States
I use this even when I don't have to. This brush has washed beautifully, and has bloomed slightly. I don't use brush guards for brushes I'm actively using. This is supremely soft and quite a luxurious experience to use. This is the most expensive brush I own, frankly. The Maki-e artwork is second to none and truly a sight to behold. I use this strictly for finishing powders, although it could easily be used for setting powder as well as blush, bronzer and a sweep of highlighter. I'm so happy to have this in my collection.

I use this for my shading after I finish this brush with setting powder. I like the slant shape and shading is very easy to apply on my jaw line.

I must confess, that I am biased to angled brushes. The RR-P2 is a new line to me, and this was my first time trying it. The angled shape is what drew me in. The construction of the brush is perfect for me. The lightweight handle is a joy to hold; while still feeling substantial. The bristles are incredibly soft and slightly longer. I have used it for contour, bronzer, and setting powder. I am so happy I decided to ty this brush.. And for the price I am even more surprised by the quality.

This large powder Brush is my new favourite face powder brush to set my loose powder or setting powder in one easy stroke without any cakery. It makes my face look so natural.

I had very high expectations for this brush after watching many YouTube beauty/makeup artist rave about it. It not only met those expectations but exceeded them. I Love this brush...obviously it’s soft but I find the size and shape absolute perfection for setting powder as well as buffing.
Jill Goates, United States
I have this and the z9. This is more narrow. This z1 is perfect for softly and precisely applying setting powder. Love love LOVE Fude Beauty!

Z8 can pick up the least pigmented powder blush on the market! And releases everything to your skin. I often need to blow away some excess product from the tip of the bristles first, and then start sweeping on my cheeks. And please start light handed when you go in with any blush for the first time. I also love using it to apply setting powders on smaller areas, such as temples, nose, chin. And you can totally use it for contour (big areas) and bronzer. I enjoyed this brush a lot！

Z8 is the perfect work horse. It’s able to do everything on you face from contour, blush & bronzer to finishing setting & buffing Truly a magical brush. Also fude is the best place to buy. I’m in the UK and they arrived in 4 days of ordering EXCELLENT SERVICE will be purchasing again from Fude.

My skin is dry and sensitive. CHIKUHODO Z series has never irritated my skin, which is what you would expect from blue squirrel bristles. Z9 is a huge powder brush, so it applies product very efficiently (you might want to use another smaller brush if you want to set areas like under eye or the sides of the nose). The bristles can pick a good amount of product and release on your skin effortlessly. I use padding motion to apply setting powders gently to the skin (I almost never need to go in twice for the same area). And for finishing off, I would gently buff and sweep away excess product. This is no doubt a beautiful brush and it's worth every penny.

This is my favorite powder brush. Super soft. Perfect for setting powder.
Kathy, United States
This is such a beautiful brush and I am so glad I finally picked it up! It is incredibly multifunctional-setting powder, bronzer, finishing powder and more. Beyond soft! Perfect addition to my Fude Collection!
Sheryl
This is just a stunning brush and I absolutely adore it. It has a perfect length of 50mm, which makes it not too overwhelming on smaller face shapes like mine. The bristles are incredibly soft and that persimmon-dyed tips always remind me of beautiful sunsets! I've washed this brush 4 times since I bought it and there is minimal shedding. I find that I can use it in both sweeping motions and also in circular motions without any bristle breakage. Loving this for finishing and setting powder as well as more diffused bronzer application.
K.M.K, Singapore
I love the ombré effect. It’s one of my most beautiful brushes. I have used it for setting powder and applying bronzer all over my face. It does the job beautifully! I am eyeing the K-03 and the eye brushes now :)
Andie, Canada
This brush is so soft! I use it every day to apply blushes, sometimes even setting powder. It's super versatile, especially convenient for someone who needs to apply makeup every day. But it may smell a bit after the first few washes.
ST, United States
I could not believe just how soft the mixture of goat and squirrel could be in this compact dynamo brush. I love the shorter handle in this case, it will be perfect for travel. It works for bronzer, even blush and of course setting powder all over. I just wish I had bought more of this line as now they appear to be all sold out. Please Fude Beauty, don't discontinue this line.
Ruth Mano, United States
This brush is very soft and smooth. The bristles do not prick as I have sensitive skin. I actually bought the cheek brush first. I like it so much I decided to buy this one and am very happy with it. I am loving the short handles as it’s much easier to use and has a nice grip. It is good for setting powder as it is rather big and covers a big area of the face. I use it with the meteorites powder beads as setting powder. It’s also good with normal loose powder. I’m actually just learning about brushes and find that Koyudo brushes outshines many other brands (not that I own many) but that’s my opinion. The price is also reasonable and would recommend this and the cheek brushes. I am sure you will be as happy as I am.

A very soft and big face finishing powder brush that enables me to apply my setting powder in a faultless look. Recommend!
dordor, Hong Kong
This was in my first order in trying fude brushes and I am in love. This brush is so plush and perfect for setting and finishing powders. You could also use it for bronzer and blush. The handle is very short but I don't care. I love the mixture of the hairs. It is also very soft, more squirrel feeling than goat. I actually ended up ordering the other brushes in this line except for the fan one.
Oksana, United States
I own the small and large powder brushes and they are definitely a luxurious experience. I recommend them if you are a collector that also likes functional brushes. Both brushes are excellent for setting and finishing powders as well as bronzer application. They feel as soft as blue squirrel, but bouncier and more versatile.
