Brand note
Rephr makes eye brushes that are precise, multi-functional, and made in Japan. The Brush 01 is a standout for its ability to do an entire eye look with one brush — fluffy enough for all-over color, precise enough for crease work. The line rewards a thoughtful approach: these are tools for people who enjoy technique, not shortcuts.
