Keep it long, treasure it long.

A new massage tool called a brush.

The sensation of your face feeling refreshed and light as you gently move this brush across your skin. Each day, you notice small changes, like your eyes appearing brighter and your cheeks regaining their glow, transforming your skincare routine into something to look forward to.

The inspiration to introduce this brush set came from a conversation with someone who radiated a youthful glow. When I asked what kind of care they practiced, they shared that they had made such routines a daily habit for many years. They emphasized the importance of choosing tools that feel good to use in order to maintain that routine.

A New Massage Tool: The Brush

Using the brush in a dry state, gently massage your face along the jawline, around the eyes, on the cheeks, and down the nose. Just glide the tips over your skin without rubbing or applying pressure, and you will feel a gentle warmth and a refreshing impression on your facial features. Many find that using it while being mindful of lymphatic flow, gently moving it along the jawline, neck, and décolletage, brings a sense of lightness to the face. Incorporating it before makeup helps prepare the skin, giving it a vibrant appearance, and makes subsequent skincare products absorb more easily.

A Pair of Brushes Designed for Gentle Strokes

The included Nader brushes replicate the soothing touch of a professional therapist. By using both brushes, you can create a consistent and delicate rhythm that is difficult to achieve with your hands alone. The unique flexibility of Kumano brushes allows them to glide smoothly over the skin, designed to provide care without exerting pressure or causing unnecessary friction. Additionally, the walnut wood stand neatly holds both Nader brushes, maintaining an elegant appearance whether placed in the bedroom or living room. This design allows you to easily grab them whenever you need, whether you’re using them or putting them away.

A Special Experience Begins the Moment You Open the Box

The brushes and stand are delivered in a beautifully crafted box that fits together like a traditional Japanese stacking box. The special feeling of opening the box is one of the charms of this set. It’s perfect not only as a treat for yourself but also as a thoughtful gift for milestones. This set is sure to delight those who are serious about skincare and want to enjoy their daily routines with care, making it an excellent choice for Mother’s Day, birthdays, or Christmas gifts. Those with a keen interest in beauty will surely appreciate the gentle touch and unique experience of using these brushes. Since it’s something you use every day, it’s important to choose quality. We hope those who value this will pick up this exceptional item.

Enriching Daily Life with Brushes

The art of brush-making began in the small town of Kumano, nestled in the mountains of Hiroshima, during the late Edo period. The connection between Kumano and brushes was established when merchants brought brushes and ink from the Nara region during the agricultural off-season. Young artisans, encouraged by the Hiroshima domain's promotion of crafts, learned techniques from various places and established their roots in Kumano. Selecting, arranging, and bundling the hair are all done by hand, preserving the unique value of Kumano brushes that differs from efficiency and speed.

SHAQUDA was born from the desire to carry on the founder's vision as a Kumano brush artisan to the next generation. It aims to be not only a tool for pursuing beauty but also a means to inspire people's sensibilities and enrich their hearts and lives. With a commitment to "attention to the brush tips" and "meticulous techniques in selecting and arranging hair," we strive to create items that embrace the hand while evolving in form.

The gentle touch of the brush tips on the skin, the balance when held, and the beauty of the gestures used are all part of the new possibilities of Kumano brushes, which have a history of over 180 years. We believe in using items that last and cherishing the craftsmanship and Japanese beauty. SHAQUDA continues to quietly support those who share these values.

Carefully Crafted Brush Tips Awaken Your Natural Beauty

This brush was born from the concept of "brushing skincare," utilizing the tips of Kumano brushes. Each action—washing, stroking, and touching the skin—is designed to enhance comfort. The facial cleansing brush, body brush, and Nader brush, which utilizes the flexibility of the tips for gentle stroking, all work together to help restore the smooth texture of your skin with the exquisite flexibility of the finest natural hair.
