So excited for these releases! Goodbye money.

Yay!! So excited for the mini keyaki volume 1 and a mini keyaki buffer ! What will be the price for these? Can’t wait to add it to my volume 2 collection. I have 2 sets, I want to pass it down to my daughters one day haha!

Season’s Greetings, Sonia! I love my Sheer Buffer and have been waiting for a smaller version for more precise blush placement. Are the Keyaki Sheer Buffer and Mini Sheer Buffer different? Thank you.

Dear Sonia,
What to say?! Well first of all, I’m so excited with many of your recent releases! The Japanese Gardens with the exquisite artwork and hair combination is so gorgeous….. I’m saving for this, I hope it doesn’t sell out again soon. Also the three squirrel brushes ( detail , crease and smudger) are beautiful. I have the original fundamental crease at home already, but it’s very special that many people that missed it , are new to your brushes or fude in general , will get an opportunity to purchase these! That original fundamental crease one is one of my all time favourite loves!
I am feeling a bit sad & nostalgic that the older fundamental style handles and brushes are all gone, but I understand. The current trends are different, but your original vision and concepts were so unique and beautiful. I really appreciated that. My crease one is like a little baby, the beginning of a journey! Your brushes have evolved so much since then. I do, now and then, love to look at and hold these fundamental handles, even though I prefer shorter handles and exposed natural wood. The lacquering and colour shines as if it were new, and the shape is satisfying to hold in my hands. Red is a favourite colour of mine!
I thought I was being good, exercising restraint, but when you released the latest lot of brushes I caved in! I’m awaiting the Mini keyaki sheer buffer and the mini keyaki jumbo worker in the mail! Yay! I really enjoy my original fundamental face one buffer and mini keyaki buffer (these are my other all time favourite brushes) so I’m looking forward to trying out the sheer buffer with cream products. As I get older I have come to really like the shorter handle, as I’m short sighted and dislike when the handle hits the mirror. My fingers though are relatively long, so the length is still just long enough for me to grasp comfortably!
Finally one question … Will the soft concealer ever be out with the keyaki mini handle? Otherwise, which brush in the mini handle does the same job comparatively for use with liquid/ cream and powder? (For use with concealer, eyeshadow and precise powdering)

Eagerly awaiting your brushes in the post!
Regards, Cynthia.

So excited to see the mini volume 1 brushes come back and even happier to see them being sold individually. I love my volume 2 set but there are a few brush shapes I find myself wanting, like something smaller to apply cream blush that were included in the first set. Thank you for bringing these brushes back!

Thank you much for this new update and so very nice to hear from you SoniaMonique

Hi Sonia! I just purchased about 10 of your brushes—i’m obsessed! Do you know when you will be restocking the Mini Keyaki Sheer Buffer? Thank you so much!!

Hey Sonia,
I am a fude lover but have yet to purchase one of your brushes. I am hoping that the jumbo base will be my first one. Any idea on when it might be restocked? I am excited to make my first purchase and finally try out your brushes!

Hi Sonia;
This is my first time commenting. I have a comment and sort of a question. I had about 90% of all of your brushes. I also purchased two of your wooden brush holders. The most recent one in December of 2024 for my birthday. I had some of your eye brushes in the bathroom waiting to be washed so they could join the other brushes in my collectors plastic container box. However, on April 3rd, 2025, my home was demolished in a severe storm–an EF-3 tornado. I lost everything practically. Blessedly some friends and family found a few pictures, my purse–untouched inside and out, my file cabinet–untouched inside, and the Sonia G. brushes in the collectors plastic container–untouched and in pristine condition. I would say that I lost mostly eye brushes (the last release) because they were waiting to be washed. I just had not gotten around to washing them. My precious wooden holder that I purchased for my 65th birthday was totally destroyed. I contacted Beautylish to ask if they could replace the item even at a reduced price. They could not accommodate my request. However, I WAS SO THANKFUL that about 85% of your brushes were saved and in pristine condition. A friend kept them for me until I could get a new place to stay. I was going through them today and they have a very slight musty smell because they have been sitting a while. I was wondering what you would recommend I wash them in to kind of get rid of that very slight musty smell. I usually just wash them in Dr. Bronner’s soap, but if there is something special I could use just this time, I would love for you to recommend. Thank you. I hope one day to get another wooden holder, but right now I am purchasing essentials. It is so hard to lose everything–all of your pictures, memories, and collections. Thank you for reading my comments. –Teresa Johnson

Happy to see all the restocks. Very excited! Appreciate the detailed overview as always of how the restock process looks from your perspective. Fascinating stuff. Also interesting insight into the decision making process for what gets ordered and when! Love hearing about that stuff. So pleased to see especially how willing you are to pivot from initial plans when the community falls in love with certain releases – like the Fusion brushes. Or restocking the mini keyaki vol 1. I’m happy especially for other people who wanted some of these brushes, but have not been able to get them for quite some time.

I’ve been a huge fan and a collector of Sonia g brushes for… Dang, I guess like seven years or so now- so I’ve seen brushes come and go and I think the most important thing is always just trying new brush designs if it appeals to you and inspires (glad I tried some of the mini designs because they are some of my favorites now). Then buying whichever new brush types are released that are in the vein of what you already like because those are what’s going to bring you the most joy guaranteed. I’ve also learned that it’s best to make sure that you buy those ones that you know that you’re gonna love sooner rather than later because for the reasons explained in your previous post you just don’t know if it’s always gonna be available. That said, I’m really really looking forward to the new releases and launches you have coming up either at the end of this year or starting next year.

I’ll use this opportunity to say- you are always so good at releasing different brush shapes and sizes. Particularly for eyeshadow brushes I find sometimes there’s not a lot of diversity in brush designs with Fude but your brand really does some new and interesting things and I really appreciate that. I guess this is just like a personal inner wish list, but if I had to make one unsolicited recommendation, lol, it would be that I love personally a variation of sizes of crease and blender brushes for the eyes. I’m kind of always on the hunt for brushes that are short and small or narrow enough in diameter, think like the MAC 221, and then all the way up in with fluffiness similar to like the detailed pro. Certainly your entire range definitely includes various crease and blending brushes with different sizes, but I think you could never have enough ultimately. Also a miniature version of a typical goat hair blender like a miniature version of a Mac 217 or something similar to what Morphe used to have with the M456- that’s just an example of how even with similar designs, shrinking it down and making a miniature version, especially for somebody with hooded eyes like me, would be amazing. I know it would immediately appeal to not only me but probably a lot of other people with a small eye space. Anyway, I’m just throwing that out there as part of my Deepest Fude hearts desire. Wishing you happiness and health!

Hi Sonia, I’m so excited that you decided to restock the 3 maki-e face brushes, please do keep us updated on when they’ll be available again!

Hi Sonia! Will this restock include the crease 1 and 2 or new brushes and something similar?

Hi Sonia, I hope you’re well! Will the Mini Keyaki Jumbo Base and Jumbo Worker be restocked? Thank you!

Hi Sonia,

Thank you for replying about the restocks! Are you planning on restocking the Alpine face brushes? Pleeeeaaasssseeee say yes . I was only able to get ALP 3 before everything sold out. It is uniquely soft, has a beautifully airy application but is also so effective with placement; it is perfection. I know you explained the dye would not look the same in another run of production but I’m ok with that . I hope you can restock because they are truly special.
