FAQs
Is the L'Estompeur brush made of synthetic or natural hair?
This brush features high-quality natural goat hair fibers.
Can I use this brush with cream products?
While it is optimized for powders, it can be used with creams; however, cleaning will be required more frequently to prevent residue buildup in the natural fibers.
How do I store the brush safely?
Store it in a clean, dry environment, preferably in a brush roll or an upright holder that keeps the bristles from being crushed.
Is the handle waterproof?
The handle is lacquered wood. While it is durable, it should not be submerged in water for extended periods.
What should I do if the brush gets stained?
Use a specialized brush cleansing soap. Natural hair can absorb pigment, so regular cleansing is recommended to maintain performance.
Troubleshooting
Shedding of initial fibers
It is normal for high-quality natural hair brushes to lose a few loose hairs during the first few uses. If shedding persists, ensure you are not using harsh rubbing motions against the skin.
Fiber tips losing shape
Wash the brush with a gentle cleanser, reshape the bristles carefully with your fingers while damp, and let it dry in a horizontal position.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This brush does not require any specialized setup; it is ready to use immediately upon removal from the packaging. To ensure the longevity of the natural goat hair fibers, it is important to follow a gentle maintenance routine:
- Cleaning: Use a gentle, brush-specific cleanser or mild shampoo once every few weeks. Avoid soaking the handle, as excess moisture can damage the lacquered wood finish or loosen the glue holding the fibers.
- Drying: After washing, reshape the fibers and lay the brush flat on a clean towel to air dry. Never dry the brush vertically with the head facing up, as water can seep into the ferrule.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the natural fibers and the vibrancy of the lacquered handle.
