I was so expecting to love this brush. A MA at MAC had put some of the Inventive Quad shadows onto my eyes using this brush as the primary one....it looked great, I had to have this brush!...

At first I didn't like this brush too much but now I don't know how I would do my makeup without it. When I first bought it I used it for lining my upper eyeline, but it wasn't coming out intense...

This has rapidly become one of my most-used brushes. A small, soft, very dense and firm tapered dome head places shadow thickly and precisely. Ideal for creating strong, narrow lines, for lining or...

Pretty good brush for a smokey eye. I tend to use this less than my 266 brush though. I also still prefer to use my 217 or 275 for crease work. It is however a very good brush and if you are...

I must thank other MUAers for raving about this brush. I love MAC Powerpoint liners, but sometimes have a problem getting them to apply evenly. This brush is perfection for that purpose. It not...

I love this brush! I am an amateur brush user, and like my 266 brush, this one is idiot-proof. Very easy to use, and it makes eyeshadow application flawless. My only complaint is that because it's...

I CANNOT believe that I haven't reviewed any of MAC's brushes, so I will start with this great brush! MAC brushes IMO are the best and they aren't expensive either and very worth the price!...

Love love love this brush! I use it to line my eyes, smudge eyeliner, and to create a smokey look. It's so easy to line my lower lashes with this brush. Collects and deposits color really well....

This brush is great for the smokey eye. I use it to darken my crease with pigments or pressed powder shadows, line my eyes, and sometimes to highlight my brow bone. It works great and blends...

You guys are SO RIGHT about this brush - it is UNBELIEVABLE! I have been unable to do a smokey eye on my eyes without looking like a raccoon (my Asian eyes are like Zhang Ziyi's), but this brush...

Yet again, the top MUA picks have not steered me wrong. The pencil brush is one of those things you never knew you needed until you purchased it. Now, it is my favorite brush. It is a little...
