    I love this brush-it is perfect for everything. I use it for applying a wash, crease placement and highlighting the brow bone. It blends your shadows beautifully. It's soft but firm-which is great...

    The 217 is a nice brush, I like it for placing color in the crease. It isn;t very good for outer corners though, it might just be my eyeshape, but every time i use this brush I go wayyyy to far out...

    If MAC ever loses their collective mind and decides this brush should be discontinued, I will buy back ups. It's perfect for everyday outer corner/crease work.
