I don't like this brush that much. It came in the colour forms brush set and the hairs are very coarse and scratchy. I bought a pencil brush from a drugstore and it was much softer. It also applies...

This is the first MAC brush that I bought. It cost me Barbados (BDS) $70, which is about US $35, so it's quite an investment. Now this is the first real professional brush that I've used, because I...

I really consider this an essential brush for the crease and outer-V. It's $23 and very nice quality.

I use my 219 with darker shadows to deepen and define a cut crease look and to smudge out and soften pencil or powder liner. I am a huge fan of brown and grey smokey eyes and this brush gives them...

In my opinion this brush is a must have for anyone that likes to do a smokey eye or add precise colour to your crease. Love this brush I don't know how I lived without it for so long!

Really nice smudging brush. It works great with your Khol liners to blend them out so they don't look 'cracked'. I also dip it into my carbon eyeshadow after I smudge it to 'set' the black khol...

When I first got this brush I absolutely loved it, but being an obsessive and compulsive brush shopper I ended up neglecting it for quiet awhile. I used it a lot for my under eye shadows, but...

I love this brush for precision application on my outer-v and crease. I love to get some color on the brush, apply it then blend it out with my 217 brush. Instead of applying color on my 217 brush...

From all the MAC brush, this is my favorite. It is amazing in lining and smudging eyeshadow. It creates the perfect look because this brush does what it's supposed to do. It's soft and pointed...

The 219 brush allows me to create a precise crease line that can be easily blended out with my 226. I also use this brush to apply shimmery colors in the inner corners of my eyes.

I really wish that I don't ever have to buy this again.... because it's pretty damn expensive (imo). But if anything happens to it (knock on wood), I will definitely repurchase. Why? Because it...

I always wondered why I was unable to get the desired smokey look I was after and now I know. I did not have the correct tool! I had a pencil brush but it was a sponge on the end. Somehow this...

Got the LE of this brush. I like it. It helps for smudging eyeliner. Not too scratchy. Could be softer. I don't use it often but it's helpful when you want a smoked-out effect.

I use this brush the most out of all my eye brushes. It is perfect for applying shadow to the crease. I bought a backup of this for carrying in my bag too. Love!

After practicing with this brush about 4 months, it's a pretty good brush. At the beginning, the brush is a bit hard to blend and kinda hurts my eyes. Just don't poke the pointy edge with too much...

I love this brush. It is great for doing a crease and in the corner of your eye (in) and also doing line on the lower lash line. Though I kind of hate that its white because you can see the color...
