What it is
A blush developed to beautifully finish loose powder. We pursued a high-quality, smooth feel and shape that gently envelops the skin. By polishing the skin with the blush, excess powder is brushed away, blending with the skin and bringing out a more natural look.
Ingredients
How to use
If the brush becomes dirty, wipe it with tissue paper soaked in IPSA Brush Cleaner (sold separately). Alternatively, gently shake the brush in lukewarm water with a mild detergent solution, rinse thoroughly to remove any remaining detergent, then remove excess water with a dry towel, trim the tip, and dry thoroughly in the shade before use.

I bought this along with the new loose powder. I've never used a brush to apply powder, so I'm not sure if it's particularly better than other products. However, it seems like the brush works better around the eyes and nose. I don't have a pouch to store just the brush, so it would have been nice if it came with a dedicated brush case.
It's small. It's smaller than even a large blush brush. I was surprised when it arrived. However, I don't like brushes that are too big because I feel like they can't reach the finer details, so the small size isn't a negative. The bristles are also uniquely cut, like a foundation brush with flat bristles (like Shiseido's HASU FUDE), but longer and softer. Personally, I initially thought Shiseido's Multi-Face Brush would be easier to use, being in a similar price range and also made with Japanese-made synthetic bristles. However, the IPSA brush is also soft and non-irritating, making it perfect for applying powder and comfortable to the skin. Unlike the Multi-Face Brush, the tip isn't tapered, so I think the IPSA brush is better for polishing powder. As a brush, it's not densely packed with stiff, voluminous bristles, but rather soft and light. A must-have brush for me is Japanese-made synthetic bristles that feel good on the skin, but they're so hard to find. I hope they continue to use Japanese-made synthetic hair brushes in the future, so I'm giving them a slightly generous rating of 6 stars.
I bought it without seeing it in person. I bought it to use as a face powder, but it was smaller than I expected. However, it's soft and seems like it can be used on small areas, so that's actually a good thing!
It's easy to use. Powder is best with a brush! I also bought this as a gift.
I use IPSA for most of my cosmetics. I recently purchased this brush because I wanted one specifically for powder. The brush is more compact than I expected. It's for loose powder, so it can't be helped, but it's quite soft, so it can be difficult to remove powder from some pressed powders. By the way, I couldn't remove much of the IPSA control powder, but it was easy to remove skincare powder. When using a puff with skincare powder, too much powder gets on the skin, making it very matte, but when I apply it with this brush, it becomes semi-matte. The brush itself is really soft and comfortable, and doesn't irritate the skin, so it's definitely better than the IPSA brush for pressed powder.
