The MAC 217 brush is a great blending brush. It is very soft and unlike other brushes it does not poke your eyelids.I defnitely recommend this brush to all users.

Mac has come out with a range of crease brushes making it hard to choose which one to buy: 224, 222, 226 (limited edition), 219 and 217. However the 217 is by far my favourite. The bistles are...

Excellent brush for blending, I use this every single day and would probably become really frustrated trying to apply make up without it now. I have more than one on hand and will replace them...

This is probably one of the BEST blending brushes out there, in fact, it is my HG and MUST HAVE MAC brush. Initially, I was kind of hesitant to be shelling out more than 20 bucks for this brush,...

This is a unique brush. I'm amazed at how well this brush "feathers" the eyeshadow in the crease and around the outer corners of my eyes. I own this brush, a 239 and a 224. The 217 brush is...

I love this brush. It picks up and deposits color great, and it's great for the crease. The bristles are dense and well shaped. This is a definite must have eye brush.

217 is the best brush for blending/feathering eyeshadow. It's also great for blending liquid concealer under the eye--the feathering gets the concealer into the lines so there is no creasing. The...
