This includes powder puffs, brushes and accessories such as pencil sharpeners. I am lacking inspiration.... This is European French and the context is a make-up manual.

It's less general than beauty accessories
4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer.
Comment: "I agree that it is less general than "beauty accessories". I wanted to avoid the word "accessories" because that is also one of the subheadings. However, I think this is the best solution and can get round the repetition by xlating the subheading as "other accessories" (after brushes, powder puffs, etc.). Thanks for your suggestion!"

brushes and (other) accessories
