    I prefer to apply my liquid foundation with this brush over the Mac187. The only thing I hate about it is that it sheds a lot! Everytime I apply foundation a few pieces of hair gets stuck to my...

    I borrowed the MUA's at the store and then bought it on the spot. I mainly use it clean as a blending-out-your-blush brush OR for lighter blushes since it will pick up a lot of color. I really like...

    Yes, this brush does shed somewhat, but that hasn't really bothered me much. I have been using this primarily to apply blush--both cream and powder. I love the precision it provides. I'm able to...

    I see this brush is getting lukewarm reviews, but I love it. It has never shed and springs back to perfect shape after every washing. The 109 is the only brush I reach for every day (besides the...

    I love this brush but it loses major marks from me because it just never stopped shedding! This brush is so versatile. You can apply blush, contour, set your powder or even apply liquid foundation...

    After all of the hype, all of the raves, I really wanted to love this brush. Cons: 1. The brush is too small to contour with unless you blend like crazy to avoid the streaky smudges it leaves...

    This brush is awesome. Makes contouring a breeze. I didn't pay full price for mine but its worth every penny. Some have complained of shedding, but mine has not shed so far.

    Great brush for contouring. I love it more than the 168, as the 168 is slightly too large for my face, and this brush fits perfectly. Washes and dries well, with little shedding. *update* I...
