FM Brush Company
Queens, New York–based private label brush manufacturer FM Brush Company believes that synthetic fibers are the future. As natural fibers are being phased out in the beauty industry, the company is ahead of the game with over 45 synthetic fibers at or above the quality of naturals, Michael Mink, director of operations, tells Cosmetics Design.
Advanced synthetics will ensure that there is no reason for people to use animal hair in the manufacture of brushes, says Mink, pictured here discussing brushes at the event.
He recognizes the ethical advantages of this shift but also maintains that with synthetics, the company can really “decide what the fiber can do” and, in fact, “modify and generate quality.”
