The Roubloff FO10Y is a versatile, oval-shaped professional brush that bridges the gap between eye and face artistry. Using high-tech synthetic squirrel hair, it mimics the ultra-soft, "fuzzy" blending capabilities of natural squirrel but provides the added durability required for cream-based products.
Brush Highlights
-
Synthetic Squirrel Imitation: These fibers are designed to be as soft as natural pine squirrel, ensuring zero irritation on delicate skin. Because these fibers are non-porous, they do not "soak up" and waste cream products like natural hair would.
-
Flattened Oval Shape: With a width of 10mm and a slim depth of 4 mm, this brush has a "paddle" profile. This allows you to use the flat side for color laydown and the rounded tip for precise, seamless blending.
-
Multi-Texture Compatibility: Perfectly balanced for powders, creams, and liquids. It is particularly effective for "melting" cream products into the skin for a natural, airbrushed finish.
-
Ergonomic Build: The 150 mm total length and signature birch handle provide the agility needed for detailed work around the eyes and nose.
Technical Specifications
The FO10Y is a medium-sized "detailer" brush, offering more precision than a standard blush brush but more coverage than a basic eyeshadow brush.

Key Applications
-
Targeted Blush: Perfect for "cream-to-powder" blush application where you want to place color specifically on the apples of the cheeks and blend outward.
-
Shadow Base & Blending: The 10mm width makes it an excellent "one-and-done" brush for applying a base shadow across the entire eyelid in a few sweeps.
-
Concealer & Correction: Ideal for applying concealer or "dry correction" powders around the nose and under the eyes to hide redness or shadows.
-
Nose Contouring: The slim 4 mm depth allows for sharp, controlled lines when contouring the bridge of the nose, which can then be buffed out using the soft oval tip.
Professional Care & Maintenance
-
Cream Removal: If using with creams or liquids, clean the brush shortly after use to prevent product from hardening within the synthetic fibers.
-
Gentle Washing: Use a specialized brush soap or mild detergent. The synthetic squirrel hair is resilient but maintains its soft "snap" best when not exposed to harsh industrial solvents.
-
Horizontal Drying: To protect the birch handle and the internal glue of the ferrule, always lay the brush flat on a towel to dry.
-
Reshaping: While the brush is damp, pinch the bristles slightly to restore the 4 mm depth "paddle" shape, ensuring it dries with a sharp, usable edge.
