The microplastics rules target particles added to a formula - not the brush filament. An honest factory guide to where brushes do and don't touch the concern, and the documentation that backs it.
Folding carton, rigid box, window/PET, fabric pouch, kraft - the makeup brush packaging families compared property by property. The shell sells and resists crushing; the insert holds the brush. No winner. You judge.
Wood, molded plastic, acrylic, aluminum - the four handle families compared property by property: where the color lives, how each ages, what washing does, and what custom shapes cost. No winner. You judge.
