    I absolutely love this brush. This is the perfect brush to apply color into my crease, I have smaller eyes. I find I can get a nice diffused application or one that is sharp and dark depending on...

    Why did Mac stop making this brush? So many you tubers agree!! It's fantastic for applying product into the crease and there you can use your 224 to blend away!!! When this brush is dirty I turn...

    I finally got my hands on this brush from Mac me over collection and it did not disappoint. This brush is perfect for the crease I have bigger eyes and I'm sure for small eyes it would work wonders...

    I wish I could get my hands on another or 2 more of this brush, it's hard to get a hold of now! It's really good for putting dark colors in the crease - it's like a cross between the 219 and 217 .

    I had gone to TCCS looking for the 214 brush and I managed to get ahold of this as well. I'm not sure which release this is from or if there was a diffrence between the size/style of the brush head...

    226 is not a perfect brush, but it's pretty darn good. It's pointed and not too soft, so it works well for creating a defined crease, but it's not ideal for serious blending. It's not as soft as...

    I swapped for this 226 from the old BBR release (not the newer MAC Me Over Collection from 2011). I love it, it is soft and blends crease colors nicely on my monolid Asian eyes. MAC brushes are a...

    OMG I wish I'd bought two! I lucked out and got one that's fairly tapered. I have both the 224 and the 217, this serves a different function on me that both those brushes couldn't fulfill. I...

    I have smaller eyes than most guru's I watch videos of. And my MAC 224 is way too large to apply with in my crease(I love it for blending everything together. But I do have to wash it more often...

    I usually just wear a wash of shadow on my lids because I'm terrible at doing crease work. Or at least I thought I was. Turns out, all I needed was this brush! I got one that is more domed than...

    This is a review for the 226 that was apart of the MAC Me Over collection. From what I've read on Specktra these 226 brushes are not as tappered as the first one that were released. I have very...

    I can't believe I've lived 25 years without this brush. Moreover, I'm seriously miffed that I bought a 224 crease brush (and mediocre Sonia kashuk and essence of beauty,) before I the 226, which...

    USES: -Defined blending in the crease. Does not spread color out as much as the 224. -Great for applying highlights on the brow bone and inner corner of the eye because of the tapered...
