    After holding off this purchase for the longest time, and spending my entire beauty budget on makeup, I decided to get this. I'm gonna say just one thing: I can do my entire face with just this one...

    This one is hard to review, I think SO much of this brush but I am so annoyed by the price... it blends so well, it's perfect but it's so expensive!

    If you haven't purchased this brush already, What are you waiting for? This brush is simply outstanding when it comes to blending out any eyeshadows. Whether you're using a cheaper drugstore...

    I must admit.. I am guilty of not investing in makeup brushes and tools. I guess it is just not as exciting as buying the new palette out there. But that brush just makes every eye look smoother...

    This brush is very versatile. This brush is great for blending out colors in the crease, for applying color to the crease, and for applying a light wash of color to the lid. I couldn't do my eye...

    This is an amazing brush for blending shadow out. It picks up product well, blends well, and deposits product well. I only use two eyeshadow brushes, this and the 217. Mine is several years hold...

    This is the absolute best brush for blending eyeshadow. I got my first one about ten years ago, and I recently got another. They both look a tiny bit different from one another, but they both work...

    Having used cheaper, dupe versions of this, I finally caved in and bought one a few months ago. Since then, I've bought two more. This brush is amazing and blends like a dream and I wouldn't...

    If I could only have one eyeshadow brush, this would be my pick. It is dense enough to pack shadow, fluffy enough to blend. I adore this brush for blending my eyeshadow and definitely prefer it to...

    It is THE brush for blending! Though I have quite a few of blending brushes I tend to use it the most! It does the job and it makes blending seem a piece of cake!

    This is my most favorite brush! If I was at a gig and lost my brush belt, but only had 1 brush to use on a client, this would be it. I have several of these in my kit because I use it for...

    The MAC #217 blending brush is a WONDERFUL brush! I use the fluffiness in my crease, but I can also use the side to pack on eye shadow to my lid. I use it every morning and it does the job I need...

    Believe every good review on this one. If you can only afford one good eye brush for shading/contouring or blending above the crease, this is it. I personally think there are many acceptable...
