    While I love the MAC eye brushes - the 217 and 239 being IMHO truly staples for any makeup lover's kit - I have found that some of their face brushes didn't really worth the money, especially for...

    I was hoping for a great brush too, just like everyone else here, and found that while this brush is pretty to look at, it just does not live up to my expectations. I originally loved it when I...

    Should have read the reviews before making a purchase. Super expensive, sheds, and the bristles are pretty scratchy. I expected more from mac. Ive used much cheaper brushes that were waaaay softer...

    I did not like this brush! As per other reviewers, the bristles come out all the time - on your face when your applying powder! To boot the head of my brush completely came off. Terrible brush for...

    Over the seven years I've had this brush I've tried and tried and tried to make it work for me. Its nice and fluffy, but it sheds like crazy. Whenever I use this brush I end up looking like I've...

    This is a good brush that might be worth $20 tops. It sheds like crazy and the handle is too long for travel and application control. I prefer Smashbox or Japonesque brushes which are more...

    I wanted this brush because I saw Erin from Scandalous Beauty used to apply blush and I had to have it. I have 1 other MAC brush from ACW so this was a big deal for me. So I went to Bloomingdales...

    This brush is the second one I've bought from MAC, and let me just say: MAC, if this is the kind of quality that you stand by, you reeeally need to eliminate your brushes all together. Or...
