FAQs

Can I use this brush with liquid lipsticks?

Yes, the firm bristles are excellent for applying liquid formulas with high accuracy.

How often should I clean this brush?

For daily users, it is recommended to deep clean at least once a week to prevent bacteria buildup and product hardening.

Is the brush retractable?

No, the Shiseido Lip Brush N 407 is a fixed-length professional brush.

What is the total length of the brush?

The brush measures 120mm, providing a comfortable handle length for precise application.

Can this be used for spot concealing?

While intended for lips, the firm, tapered tip can be used for very small, targeted spot concealing if desired.

Troubleshooting

Bristles feel stiff or clumpy

Product buildup is likely. Perform a deep clean using a gentle makeup brush shampoo and lukewarm water.

Brush is shedding fibers

Avoid using harsh alcohol-based cleaners, which can degrade the adhesive in the ferrule. Ensure the brush is dried flat or upside down to keep moisture out of the handle base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Shiseido Lip Brush N 407, proper maintenance is required. Always store the brush in a clean, dust-free environment such as a brush cup or a dedicated travel case to keep the bristles from fraying. When cleaning, use a mild brush cleanser or gentle soap, rinsing with lukewarm water until the runoff is clear. Always reshape the bristles while damp and lay the brush flat or hang it with the head facing downward to dry; never allow water to seep into the metal ferrule, as this can loosen the adhesive and cause shedding.
