    I really like this brush! I can see why people don't like it; it is not the softest brush out there, but I really, really love it! I use it to apply powder over my foundation and to apply my...

    This was my first makeup brush ever and I love it so much! I've used this brush for powder foundation, setting powder, blush, bronzer, and all over shimmer. It can do all things, lol. I will...

    I've had this brush for several years, and only recently found out about the clear nail polish and conditioner tricks. To be honest it did feel a teeny bit scratchy, but I loved how big and fluffy...

    This is probably the worst brush MAC has. Even my Sonia Kashuk powder brush which costs 1/5 of the price feels softer than this one. This brush is just so scratchy on the face that I'm actually...

    I think a lot of the reviews for this brush are unfair. Granted, it's probably not the best blush/bronzer brush in the world- I do prefer my recently purchased NARS Yachiyo brush and the MAC 129,...

    It is a little scratchy on my face, but not enough to irritate my skin or bother me. I have washed it three times now and the bleeding has gone away. It still sheds, but I can live with that...

    I have several MAC brushes and this one is clearly not the best. When I used it for the first time, it was exceedingly scratchy and shedding. It kept shedding hair during a couple of months but now...

    This is probably the worse brush by MAC, or maybe just mine. This brush is SUPER scratchy.. to the point of leaving me rash like bumps after I use it. Yes I do clean this brush, it also sheds...

    This brush is good, it gets the job done of applying my powder effortlessly and quickly. The bristles are good and soft and it is not scratchy. It's not bad but I just don't think it's great,...

    Wow I can't believe this brush has gotten such a poor review because I absolutely love it! Maybe I just got lucky, but my brush doesn't shed as much as others have. Granted it did shed, but not...

    Probably the worst brush from MAC. A good powder brush should makes you feel like in heaven, but this brush's bristle is so harsh on skin that I absolutely hates it. Its like poor quality wool...
