    Please take it from me-I was that person that would say-I'm not spending $20 on a brush! But my makeup just was never "right" IMO. My aunt bought me the brush betting me I'd love it and she was...

    I LOVE this brush. I use it for applying a sheer layering of color all over my lid, and of course blending together harsh lines and colors. I FIRST got a set of eye brushes and this was one of...

    I DON'T KNOW HOW I SURVIVED THE LAST 10 YEARS WITHOUT THIS. I'm about to run out tomorrow and buy a 2nd one for backup. This makes creating the smokey effect so much easier than what I've been...

    Yes, all the hype over this brush is true. Before this brush, I was using 3 different brushes to apply my shadow: one for the lid, one for the crease, and one for blending. The 217 covers all of...

    I love this brush, but I'm not in "love" with it. Does that makes sense? It's a very versatile brush & there's no other brush like it. It's soft & great for blending. My only problem with it is...

    Best MAC makeup brush! It is a must for your eyes! It picks up just enough eyeshadow with a few taps. I can use it for smudging or for a smokey look, highlighting! I actually have TWO of...

    This is a great blending brush. I use it every day. MAC brushes are expensive but well worth it.

    This brush is OK, but why it's not so soft as other Mac brushes? Is it supposed to be like that and why?

    I'd been using the 224 brush and was finding it difficult to use because of its size, so I sold it and bought the 217 brush after hearing rave reviews about it. First off, it's pretty pricey, as...
