Chinese makeup brush manufacturer VS Indian manufacturer

 During OEM makeup brushes or custom makeup brushes, customers may be undecided between Chinese makeup brush manufacturers and Indian manufacturers. As important countries in the global cosmetic tool manufacturing industry, China and India each have their own characteristics and advantages in the field of makeup brush production. The following is a comparative analysis of Chinese makeup brush manufacturers and Indian makeup brush manufacturers:

Cost

	Chinese makeup brush manufacturer	Indian makeup brush manufacturer
Labor cost	Although labor costs are rising year by year, it still has the efficiency advantage of large-scale production and highly skilled workers.	Labor costs are lower (about 60-70% of China's), but production efficiency is lower and the worker skill training cycle is longer.
Raw material cost	The supply chain for animal hair (such as goat and pony hair) and synthetic fibers is mature, prices are stable, and localization degree is high.	Some high-end animal hair (such as sable) is imported, but plant fibers (such as coconut fiber) are lower in cost.
Comprehensive Cost	Mid-to high-end makeup brushes have outstanding cost-effectiveness, while low-end products face competition from Southeast Asia.	Low-end makeup brushes have significant price advantages, but mid- and high-end makeup brushes are limited by technology and raw material supply.

 

Industry chain maturity

	Chinese makeup brush manufacturer	Indian makeup brush manufacturer
industrial clusters	Complete industrial clusters have been formed in Hebei, Henan,Guangdong and other places, with supporting enterprises (such as electroplating and packaging) concentrated and highly efficient in collaboration.	The industrial chain is fragmented, few supporting enterprises, rely on cross-regional collaboration, resulting in high logistics costs.
Automation	With a high degree of automation, leading precision molds and hair planting technology, can produce complex products such as microfiber brushes.	Mainly semi-automated, high-end equipment relies on imports, and technology upgrades rely on foreign investment (such as investment from Japanese and Korean companies)
Quality control	Rich experience in OEM makeup brushes for international brands, popular ISO certification, strict quality control system (such as AQL sampling standards)	The quality stability varies. Some big makeup brush factories have passed European and American certifications, but small and medium-sized factories have weak product control capabilities.

 

Market and Trade Environment

	Chinese makeup brush manufacturer	Indian makeup brush manufacturer
Export Capability	The world's largest exporter of makeup brushes (accounting for approximately 70% of the international market share), familiar with the standards and compliance requirements of the European, American, Japanese and Korean markets.	Exports are growing rapidly, mainly targeting the Middle East, Southeast Asia and African markets, with a low penetration rate in the European and American markets.
Tariff Policy	Affected by the Sino-US trade war, exports to the United States are subject to additional tariffs (some companies circumvent this through branches in Southeast Asia)	Enjoy tariff preferences for the EU, ASEAN and other regions (such as India-ASEAN FTA), making export costs more competitive
Brand Cooperation	OEM makeup brushes for international brands such as MAC, Sigma, and Sephora for a long time, and have the ability to provide ODM/OEM integrated services.	mainly accept orders from small and medium-sized brands, with high customization flexibility, but the trust of high-end brands still needs to be accumulated.

 

Innovation and sustainability

	Chinese makeup brush manufacturer	Indian makeup brush manufacturer
Product innovation	High R&D investment, launched antibacterial bristles, environmental protection bamboo handles and other innovative products, leading the number of patents.	Innovation focuses on natural materials (such as organic plant fiber brushes), but the ability to transform technology is weak.
Environmental protection trend	Faced with strict environmental regulations, promote water-based paint, degradable packaging and other green production, cost pressure increases.	Environmental requirements are relaxed, but the use of sustainable materials (such as recycled plastics) is low and may face international compliance risks in the long term.
Digital capability	Close cross-border e-commerce cooperation (such as connecting directly with global customers through Alibaba International and Amazon), mature digital marketing	Relying on traditional B2B channels, digital capabilities are weak, but local e-commerce platforms (such as Nykaa) offer new opportunities.

 
 

Potential challenges

Chinese makeup brush manufacturer: rising labor costs, increased environmental compliance costs, and risks of international trade frictions (such as supply chain transfer trends).

Indian makeup brush manufacturer: Backward infrastructure (such as unstable power supply), low production efficiency, and reliance on imports of high-end raw materials.
 


Suggestions
 
Choose Chinese makeup brush manufacturers:
If the demand focuses on mid-to-high-end makeup brushes, fast delivery, complex customization (such as antibacterial makeup brushes, special-shaped brush heads), and high requirements for supply chain stability.
 
Choose Indian makeup brush manufacturers:
If the target market is a price-sensitive region (such as South Asia, Africa), or it is necessary to use India's tariff advantages to circumvent trade barriers, and the tolerance for delivery cycle is high.

Makeup brush manufacturers in Shenzhen VS Yiwu

It is known that most Chinese makeup brush manufacturers and factories locate in Shenzhen and Yiwu. Shenzhen as the origin of Chinese makeup brush industry, attract the most skillful workers and crafts; while Yiwu is known as its low price.

 

For many customers who are not so familiar with Chinese market, it is really difficult to find a good supplier from China. Sometimes, they send a same inquiry to different makeup brush suppliers in China, but get greatly different price, for example, some may quote USD1.0 while some may quote USD0.2….. Most customers become puzzled then, they do not want to choose the supplier with the highest price, but are not dare to choose the lowest price due to quality consideration.

 

If customers are somewhat familiar with Chinese makeup brush market and manufacturers, they will know that Shenzhen price is usually expensive than Yiwu price, and of course, the quality is much better. The manufacturers in these two places have their own understanding on quality; Shenzhen manufacturers will firstly quote the good quality while Yiwu manufacturers will quote the lowest price. Therefore, even if customers send them same picture, the price may vary a lot.

 

If customers only care price, they will prefer Yiwu manufacturer; for example, most Indian customers will only source makeup brushes from Yiwu who can offer them the lowest price, they do not care the brush quality as long as it is a makeup brush.

 

While for most European and American customers, they care more about the quality; they firstly would like to buy good quality brushes and then if the price is low that will be the best for them. Usually they will not choose the Yiwu manufacturers in case of bad quality.

 

Yiwu suppliers will also source from Shenzhen makeup brush manufacturers, they only aims to the lowest price; sometimes, we believe some brushes are not qualified, they will accept them all. So the brushes sold to Yiwu market will be much cheaper than to HK market.

 

To know who can offer the best price with the same quality, customers should send real samples to the manufacturers for exact quotation. Only after checking the material and craft of the samples, the manufacturers can have the same understanding on the brush quality and then quote the accurate price.

EXW price and FOB price

During quotation, many Chinese makeup brush manufacturers do not exactly know the difference between EXW price and FOB price. Most of them believe the EXW price and FOB price is almost the same since they no need to pay the shipping charge to customers.

 

The truth is there is really big difference between these two terms. EXW means Exwork. If the price we quote is EXW price, that means our responsibility is just till production finished. Customers should be responsible for everything ever since, including finding a forwarder in China to arrange the shipment to the port, paying custom related fees and shipping charge. The makeup brush manufacturers only need to ensure the production to be finished on time.

 

But if we quote FOB price, we should arrange everything till the goods leave the port, so we will have to contact the forwarder for shipment arrangement, ship the goods and pay the related charge to the port, coordinate and pay the charge for Chinese customs declaration. Therefore, comparing to EXW price, we will pay about ￥2000.0 more for FOB price.

 

Therefore, while quotation, it is best for makeup brush manufacturers to quote EXW price, so that we can take less responsibility and risks; if customers require FOB price, we should add at least ￥2000.0. If the shipping charge to the port is higher, the total cost will be higher relatively.

 

Some manufacturers may get great loss as they do not clearly understand the difference between these two terms. For example, they just calculate the production cost to custom makeup brushes, so the price they quote should be EXW price, but they quote the price to customers as FOB price. So they have to afford the extra cost by themselves. Sometimes, the total profit of the shipment may be lower than such cost, so they actually do this business at a loss.

 

During communication with customers, we should clearly understand all related terms and knowledge, most of the time, knowledge is really wealth!

Local manufacturer or Chinese manufacturer

Many foreign customers like Chinese makeup brush manufacturers very much due to the low price and good quality, while sometimes they will hesitate once they have available local manufacturers who can also make good quality makeup brushes just in much higher price. So customers do not know whether local makeup brush manufacturers or Chinese manufacturers will be better or more suitable for them?

 

It depends; no one can say which one is certainly better than the other. The advantage of Chinese makeup brush manufacturers is low price; the disadvantage is the importing charge and inconvenient communication, which is just the advantage of local manufacturer. If cooperate with local manufacturers, customers can ensure effective communication on all related issues and the shipping charge will be also less than importing charge. But the local manufacturer’s price is much higher than Chinese manufacturers, usually more than 10 times.

 

That is why customers hesitate; here is some of our suggestion for customer reference:

 

1.       If your order amount is very few but with heavy weight, say amount $100.0 with 40kg; maybe local manufacturers will be more suitable. As shipping charge and importing fee is the very important cost for international business, if your order amount is just USD100.0, the shipping charge and importing fees may be about USD500.0 or more, so your total charge reaches USD600.0 which is almost the same as the cost you buy from local makeup brush manufacturer;

2.       If your order amount is big, maybe Chinese makeup brush manufacturer will be more suitable. Even if the shipment is heavy, it will be more cost-effective than buying from local manufacturers, as now Chinese manufacturers have had perfect supporting system for international business, such as the forwarder and logistic system. The heavier the shipment, the more discounts they can get from their forwarders. So the total cost of the customers will be much lower than local manufacturers.

3.       Customers’ another concern on international business is the communication effectiveness. If the sales of Chinese makeup brush factory are not so professional, it may cause a lot of problems and dispute, and once any dispute occurs, it is hard to resolve due to the long distance and time difference. To avoid this situation, customers should have initial communication with the sales, if you find they are not so professional or responsible during your discussion, it is better to stop. Anyway, this situation can also happen on local manufacturer. Therefore, good understanding on the makeup brush manufacturer is essential at any situation.

 

Before making decision, customers should firstly compare the TOTAL cost of the Chinese manufacturer and local manufacturer; it needs customers to inquiry from several suppliers. Also, fully understand the makeup brush manufacturer and their service is essential.

 

About the forwarder

After long term communication and negotiation, we finally get makeup brush orders from our customers, it is really excited. However, we should know that order is just the first step. Production, shipping and quality are also very important for us. Only after getting customer approval on the brush quality, we can say that this business is success.

 

Here, we would like to say something about the shipping process.

 

After finishing production, we should deliver the makeup brushes to customers. Since it is international business, we have to find a forwarder to help us deliver the goods via sea, air or express. And also, it is known that to export/import the makeup brushes, we need to prepare all necessary documents to get custom approval and release.

 

As a makeup brush manufacturer who has been in the fields for about 10 years, we surely have our own forwarder to help with our delivery and custom issues. If customers have no appointed forwarder, our forwarder can handle everything for us: do all declaration documents, ensure the shipment be released from the custom and ship the makeup brushes to customers door to door. The condition is we should pay all fees, of course, such fee should be afforded by customers who can transfer the fee to us first.

 

While some customers prefer appointing forwarders in China by themselves, and after the makeup brushes are available, we contact the appointed forwarder and contact shipping issues. At such situation, as the exporter, we only need to send the goods and related declaration documents to the appointed forwarder warehouse; they will arrange everything on custom clear and shipment to customers. If so, we only need to pay the shipping charge to the Chinese forwarder warehouse, all other caused fees should be afforded directly by customers.

 

For the exporter, the above two options both have advantages and disadvantages: if use our own forwarder, we can control the risks at our side but we have to do many related things; if use customer appointed forwarder, it is very convenient for us, but the risk is rather high for us since the forwarder may release the goods to customers without our approval. Therefore most Chinese makeup brush manufacturers prefer using their own forwarder, anyway, if customers insist on appointed forwarder, it is also ok, just make some change on the payment terms.

Why most Chinese makeup brush manufactures have no catalogue

Most Chinese makeup brush manufacturers do not know how to handle with customer requirements on catalogue, they understand that some customers are not sure about what kind of brushes in demand, so would like to see suppliers’ catalogue for reference, but the question is most Chinese makeup brush manufacturers have no catalogue even if they have made thousands types of makeup brushes for various customers.

 

Some may ask: why not list all makeup brushes they have made as their own catalogue? Firstly, it is too hard to list all and customers will have no patient or time to browse so many items. If just list some, no one know which one are preferred by customers since different customers have different preference. Also, most Chinese makeup brush manufacturers mainly aim as OEM factories to custom makeup brushes for customers, some customers may not agree the factory to disclose their product information.

 

Not like other products, customer preference on makeup brushes change frequently and quickly. The most popular brush styles in spring may become unmarketable in winter. So if you have paid a lot of time and efforts to make a catalogue, once finished the catalogue, you may find that no customers like the makeup brushes in the catalogue!

 

Due to the product characteristics, makeup brushes have no standard size or material, everything can be changed upon customer requirements; if list all situation in the catalogue, customers may be puzzled, if not list all, the catalogue is not accurate and complete; it is another reason for makeup brush manufacturers not to make catalogues.

 

Therefore, when customers require catalogue or price list, some manufacturers will send some pictures or list of their makeup brushes which are popular within several months, jus to show their ability and brush quality.

Why Chinese makeup brush factory not accept L/C payment

Many customers are really puzzled about why most Chinese makeup brush manufacturers refuse the L/C payment terms. Per their understanding, L/C at sight is benefit for both the suppliers and the customers.

The reason is: almost makeup brush factories in China are not so big. As the makeup brush is a manual work, no need of high-technology or advanced equipment or strict management, therefore, most of the factories are small workshops, most of the staffs are workers, only a few staffs to control the production, marketing and quality. They have not too much energy to control the payment risks. So they usually accept payment via wire transfer which is very simple and quick.

While the L/C payment even L/C at sight, it contains a certain risk, and the main reason is the handle of L/C is too complex for most Chinese makeup brush manufacturers. It requires professional staff to examine all L/C documents terms by terms, and once a term does not match, the factory may not be able to get the payment. Also the fee of L/C is too high, which relatively decrease the margin of the factory. If handle L/C via the import and export companies, the cost will be higher.

We know that the customers have their own regulations on payment terms, while it is the situation that most Chinese makeup brush factories will not accept L/C payment terms, so if you would like to get factory direct price, the L/C payment may not feasible. Then many customers go to the traders to buy makeup brushes with much higher price.

We really hope the customers and Chinese manufacturers can find a way to solve such problem and gain two-win.

The price situation of makeup brushes

These years, in China, the goods from commodity to consumer have raised the price, some may raise more, some may raise less, anyway the whole situation is: everything is raised in price.

 

Makeups brushes, or in another world, cosmetics products, are among the trend. As a manual work, the export price of makeup brushes has raised year by year. Generally, there are the following reasons for the price raise:

 

International situation:

1.       Appreciation of RMB, or in another world devaluation of USD dollar. It is easy to understand, for example, in 2007, if you plan to custom makeup brushes from China, and you would like to get quotation in USD dollars. The makeup brush factory will evaluate their production cost first, and then finalize their quotation to you, say the price is RMB10.0, then they will translate the price into USD dollar, that will be USD1.25 (base on the USD:RMB exchange rate is 8:1); but if it is in 2011, the exchange rate is 6.4:1, with the same RMB price level, the USD price will be USD1.56. Although there is no change on the makeup brush cost, the export price really raised due to the fluctuation in exchange rate.

2.       Price increase of oil on the international market. These years, the oil price increases a lot, it is an international case. Oil is a base; its price change will affect all other industry including makeup brushes. For those industries whose production material includes oil, the whole cost will definitely be affected by the oil price change. Even if the product will not use oil, due to the oil price change, the transportation cost will be higher, then the whole cost of a goods will also be higher

 

National situation

3.       The Chinese government Regulation and control: To improve the lives of all citizens, in recent years, the Chinese government has released a lot of regulations. To improve the workers salary is one of the most important regulations. Still comparing with 2007, the workers salary has increased by more than 25%, and since makeup brush is a manual work, the labor cost takes a great role in the whole product cost, so the unit price will must increase.

4.       Other reflects: including the price increase of individual material or bull operations etc

 

In a word, the whole price level of the makeup brush is increased, even if in a short time it may be reduced, the situation and current of makeup brush price will keep increasing.

 

As a professional makeup brush manufacturer, we will keep our customers informed of any price change 10 days in advance in written notice.

half-moon blush brush

These days, I have been communicating with a Bulgarian company who is the manufacturer of decorative makeup products and they need little brushes (mini brushes) to put in their blush box. They just told us that they prefer the blush brush with half-moon handle, so I send a type of existing brush which may meet their requirements for their confirmation.

 

Some information of the brush is as follows:

Name: half-moon blush brush

Size: 40mm*18mm (length*width)

Bristle material: goat or pony

Picture:

 

We also send them the picture and quotation for their confirmation.

 

The next day, we got their reply and they us send their blush box picture, unfortunately the blush box diameter is 40mm, so the brush size must less than 40mm, that means that our existing brush is not ok for their box, so the only solution is to open a new mould for the brush handle.

 

Then we sent them the quotation of molding fee for their confirmation. Generally the molding fee should be afforded by the customers who want to custom makeup brushes, while if the following order quantity is big enough, we, as a chinese makeup brush manufacturer for tens years, can somewhat reduce or cut the molding fees.

About Purchase makeup brushes from China

Today, I saw a sentence in the website of a USA company who supply makeup brushes; they declare that “we are a cruelty free makeup brush company.  No animals are harmed to produce our makeup brushes. We do not purchase makeup brushes from china or outside of the USA”. 

 

Many Chinese makeup brush manufacturers must be angry with such description. They make a special mention of China, and show their superiority by stating not purchase from any China makeup brush manufacturer.

 

It is rather ridiculous. Makeup brush is a manual work, made in China or USA can prove nothing on brush quality. Every know that many famous brands like MAC and BB, custom makeup brushes in their Chinese makeup brush factory, and most ladies are crazy for MAC and BB brushes. Chinese makeup brushes are good enough to meet all quality requirements.

 

As a makeup brush supplier, this company may really once purchased Chinese makeup brushes with bad quality, so they get hurt and never believe in any Chinese makeup brush suppliers or manufacturers. In fact, most makeup brush factory in China are very good, but this company give no chance to them for cooperation.

 

By the way, I believe the special mention of China instead of other country can also prove the power of Made-in-China.

makeup tool

Makeup brushes or cosmetic brushes are a necessity in the application of blush or powder. Makeup professionals have stated that a good makeup brush is a beauty secret and is akin to what a good set of knives are to a chef. The biggest makeup hazard is caused by a bad makeup brush. You can buy soft, natural-bristle brushes for your cosmetic brushes at factory price of Chinese makeup brush manufacturers.

 

To get perfect makeup, you should use the right tools such as makeup brushes. The use of makeup brushes can highlight your best features. Makeup brushes help your makeup go on more easily and look a lot better. Makeup artists provide tips to suggest that the best brushes are made of natural bristle, with wooden handles. The handle should sit well in your hand so that you can get a great grip. Makeup applicators use a blush brush, a powder brush, an eyeshadow brush and finally a lip brush.

 

Discount brushes are the facial solution for creating a natural, anti aging, fabulous look. Care and treatment of any brush product should include soaking your makeup brushes, airbrush makeup and cosmetic brushes in a mix of hot water and antibacterial soap for a half hour. Leave them out to air-dry and use tissues regularly to wipe off your brushes. The secret is if the bristles stray off in different directions after prolonged use, simply cut them back.

 

Natural bristles that made from sable, goat, or squirrel are the best for makeup brushes, because the hairs have cuticles that grab the powder or blush and allow it to go on more evenly.

Why Toney is MORE professional

Some customers may ask: since there are so many Chinese makeup brush manufacturers and suppliers, why you are more professional? What is the reason you declare you are a professional makeup brush supplier?

 

The key reason is that we ONLY sell and manufacture makeup brushes. Not like the other makeup brush manufacturer or supplier, who sell various beauty or makeup products to avoid of any risk, which include brushes, mirrors, makeup, cosmetic, comb etc.

 

While to be more professional and to train more skillful workers, Toney only manufactures and sells makeup brushes. Our workers have rich experience in making good quality makeup brushes.

 

Also, due to the location advantage, we have lower labor cost, which will directly reduce the whole cost to manufacture makeup brushes, so our makeup brush price is also much lower than those makeup brush manufacturers.
