If customers would like to have their own makeup brush styles, we will firstly require physical samples if possible, as physical samples will show us all exact details,such as the exact material, the quality level etc, and there will be no misunderstanding.

Of course, since you want unique design on their makeup brushes, you may not be able to source physical samples of the whole brush. If so,you can send us physical samples of individual parts, for example, you can send a brush sample and tell us you only need the same brush head, the same situation in the ferrule and handle. You can also send us  samples to show us the required color/shape/painting etc, as long as it can clearly show your idea.

For Our working process if customers offer physical samples, please check here for details.

If really no physical samples, we will require drawings. Some customers may write long description to express their ideas on the brushes, but words may cause misunderstanding, so we strongly suggest description by data. In the drawing of makeup brushes, please list dimension of each part, especially the handle/ferrule diameter, which will greatly affect the price, the following is just for your reference.

As professional makeup brush factory, we will give our most professional suggestion on material/size during your customization makeup brushes. We will try our best to provide required makeup brushes to worldwide customers.

During customizing makeup brushes, the most important thing for makeup brush manufacturers is to know customers’ detailed requirements. And the best situation is that customers can offer physical samples, which can avoid misunderstanding and can greatly reduce communication period before production.

The following is our normal working process if customers offer physical samples of makeup brushes:

1) After getting physical samples, and known the order quantity, we will send customers exact quotation.

2) If our quotation is ok for customers, and customers want to place orders, we will send a proforma invoice for customers’ prepayment. Our payment terms is 50% prepayment and 50% before shipment.

3) After getting prepayment, we will order material, and then produce pre-production samples for customers’ approval. Only after getting approval, we will start mass production;

4) When the production is almost finished, customers pay the balance payment, and we will send makeup brushes.

5) For shipment, if customers have Chinese forwarder in Shanghai, we need to know their contact information and arrange pickup from us; if customers need us to arrange all related shipping issues for them, we will ship via our own forwarder and customers pay the shipping charge together with the balance payment.

Many customers send us emails to ask of our MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) requirement, here we would like to explain again:

The MOQ we refer to is alway.s for each brush instead of mixed order.If we said our MOQ is 1000pcs, that means 1000pcs each instead of total quantity for different brushes.

The MOQ vary according to different brush type and material. For example, the MOQ of the makeup brushes with #2 goat hair will be at least 2000pcs; but even if all other factors/aspects keep unchanged, only change the material to ZGF goat hair, the MOQ will be 1000pcs or 500pcs. Also, the MOQ of large brushes will be lower than small brushes. For example, if customers only want large powder brushes, the MOQ will be about 1000pcs, but if only want small eye brushes, the MOQ may be 5000pcs. Of course, if they want to order both powder brushes and eye brushes, the MOQ will be the same as the powder brushes.

The material also affect the MOQ, if customers require aluminum ferrule, the MOQ may be 500pcs, but if chang to copper ferrule, the MOQ may become 1000pcs, that is because copper ferrule has high rejection rate and is more difficult to produce.

Therefore, during custom makeup brushes, to know the MOQ, please firstly send your detailed requirements on the brushes to the makeup brush factory, then we will check the MOQ accordingly.

Whatever, no matter what is your requirement on the size and material, our MOQ will not be less than 500pcs each. So if customers would like to order several makeup brushes or less than 500pcs each, we are sorry that we can not help.

For the reason of why we have MOQ requirement, we have explained before, please click here to check details.

Some customers may wonder: since the makeup brush is a manual work, why has MOQ requirement? It should be the same for manual to make 1pcs and 10000pcs.

We should explain that, the reason to have MOQ is mostly due to the material. The makeup brush is manual work, but the material production is not, for example, the production of bristles, ferrules and handles is mechanized, so the material suppliers have MOQ requirement on the material.

Take bristles for example, the MOQ of the bristles is usually 5KG which can make thousands of brushes, so the makeup brush manufacturer has to make the MOQ of the brushes to be 1000pcs or more, otherwise the unused bristles may be wasted if no other customer needs the same bristles. The situation is the same for handles. Also, the painting on handles, the quantity in one painting may be 2000pcs, so if only 500pcs, the painting fee is the same as 2000pcs, it will increase the piece cost of the brushes.

Of course, if customers would like to accept higher price, it is totally ok for us to make any quantity. For example, the MOQ of a makeup brush is 1200pcs at USD1.0, while customers only need 500pcs or less, we have to recalculate the cost and requote, as the risks of “wasted” bristles should be afford by customers, so the price may become USD2.0 or more. If customers can accept such price, we are no problem to make 500pcs for them.

We know that many of our customers are not big factories; they may be the makeup artists who have a makeup studio, or the traders who are doing makeup brushes in their location. It is hard for them to order large quantity at one time. We really appreciate any chance to cooperate with any customers.

Therefore, during custom makeup brushes, it is better to let us know the quantity you need and your target price, so that we can know your exact target and act more quickly.
