02 · The everyday question

What it could improve

More ways to hold it. Some users find thin handles difficult to grip; others need a slimmer grip for precise control. Research & idea →

A brush matched to the formula. Visible streaks and uneven blending can depend on the formula, brush and technique together. Research & idea →

Fibres that stay in place. Loose hairs in makeup and changes after washing undermine confidence in a brush. Research & idea →

03 · Before production

What to check in a sample

Compare precision and comfort with varied hand sizes, grip preferences and users.
Test grip under dry and damp conditions, balance and behaviour on a flat surface.
Review formula application, fibre retention and rest stability after cleaning.
