    This is by far one of the worst brushes I have ever tried. I was so excited to get this brush, I admit it was an impulse buy- but hey, some of those tend to work out well. When I first received it...

    This is a seriously underhyped brush. More people should use this and rave about it. I was recommended this by a lovely MUAer when I was just getting into make up and eyeliner with a gel...

    Probably one of MAC's most overlooked brushes. I love it for powder and cream eyeshadow--packs on colour really well. It has a very small bundle of synthetic fibres and is very flat and has a...

    I have heard this brush is expensive for the size. Like good perfumes, you do not judge a brush quality for it's size or cost, but for it's function. Does it transform you? Does it make you...

    I have semi-Asian (?) / droopy eyes, with a small space between the lid and brows, and the size of this is just *perfect*. Best multi-tasking eye brush for me! Wiping with tissue paper between...

    Great for small areas (lower lashline) or for making very defined crease-cuts. I also use to assist in smudging liner and a clean one to work feathering out concealer on small blemishes.

    Oh why oh why didn't I find out about this brush sooner? Like before I'd already invested in a dozen different eye-lining brushes that can't hold a candle to this gem? The reviews do not lie. ...

    I use this brush solely for concealer application and so far so good! It allows really precise application (i use this for small areas - its not good for larger areas such as undereye). Its stiff...

    This is a great brush. I used to use this to apply fluidline until I discovered brush 266. The 266 brush is great for applying fluidline. I now use the 231 brush to smear eyeliner or to apply...

    I purchased this brush when it first came out a few years ago. I wanted it because I thought it would be good for applying color on the lower lash line. I asked the MA what it was for and she...

    Awesome brush for lining with powder (wet or dry) and applying dark colours to the outside corner of the eye and under the eye. I don't like it for gel liners though - streaky application that you...

    I'm one of those people that prefer lining the lower lash line and not the upper. For some reason, this looks better on me. The 231 is the perfect brush is use with fluidline for lining the lower...
