    I bought a set of MAC brushes years ago. The blush brush was the first to fall apart. The handle can apart and then the bristles started to thin out after each wash. I was really disappointed by...

    This is my current powder blush brush at the moment. I purchased the 129sh instead of the 129 since 129sh is very handy and I can just put it inside my pouch bag for retouches everytime. I'm not...

    I hate this brush. It sheds everywhere (it always has), and I've had it over a year. I don't even use it anymore because the shedding is so bad.

    This brush cost me $24.00 at the CCO and I love it! It doesn't shed while I'm blotting and it doesn't shed when I'm applying powder, blushes or highlights. I basically use it just to remove shine...

    I don't understand how this brush gets any glowing reviews. The one I got from MAC sheds like crazy - I didn't have a cheap brush that would leave so much hair every time I use it. I love MAC...
