"This is what I wanted! Giving shape to that very phrase" - auno's vision for a "future where you can love yourself" -

"This is what I wanted!" We want to create a future where we can give shape to that very phrase. auno is a makeup brush brand born from three sisters and Kumano brush technology, dedicated to addressing your concerns.

April 1st is "April Dream," a day to speak of "dreams" rather than lies. We want to convey our sincere desire to "create a future like this," which lies at the heart of our brand, rather than focusing on completed products or achievements.

[Background of Our Dream] Our origin was our father's back. Born into a calligraphy brush factory in Kumano-cho, established in 1953, we grew up with the sounds of brush making from an early age. Days when makeup didn't go well. Moments when we didn't know what to use. We began to feel confused by skin that changes with age. "Something is different." When that question overlapped with the concerns voiced by our customers, we began to wonder if we could apply the techniques of calligraphy brushes to "today's makeup." We are committed to creating brushes that can be used with confidence, empathizing with the skin changes that are common as one ages and the moments when previous makeup no longer feels right, all from the perspective of our generation.

[Our Initiatives] auno is not just a brand that makes brushes. We value listening to our customers' voices, thinking together with them, and giving shape to their ideas. For this reason, we actively create opportunities for direct conversations, carefully picking up on small daily discomforts and unspoken concerns, and meticulously reflecting them in our product development. By inheriting the traditional techniques of Kumano brushes and adapting them to modern makeup trends, we aim to deliver an experience where you feel the gentleness the moment it touches your skin, the comfort every time you use it, and where the time spent on makeup itself becomes enjoyable. For those who feel "something isn't quite right" or "I don't know what to use," we want to be a presence that makes them think, "This will be alright." That is the embodiment of the "This is what I wanted" sentiment that auno wishes to deliver.

[Our Future Ideal] What we aim for is not "selling products," but becoming a presence that people can easily consult. With a closeness only possible for three sisters, we will continue to worry, think, and give shape to ideas together with our customers. And we aim for a future where we grow the brand together with our customers. auno wants to remain not "just a makeup brush" but "a presence that empathizes with your feelings."

[Our Dream] Our dream is to increase the number of moments where people can "love themselves" through makeup. When your makeup changes, you gain a little confidence. When you gain confidence, you can look forward. We believe that the accumulation of these small changes will transform someone's future. And someday, to become a brand that makes many more people feel, "This is what I wanted." That is the dream auno envisions.
