such a great blending brush. So soft and immaculately applies & blends out colour like you would not believe. Durability is also fantastic.

This is HANDS DOWN the best blending brush any makeup lover can own. Does excellent job of applying shadow all over the lid and blends everything from the crease to the outer v perfectly. I knows...

I absolutely love it! This is by far the brush I use most of the time for a lot different eye makeups. My first MAC brush and still one of the best. If you cleanse it regularly, it is very long...

This brush is amazing!!!! Normally I would have problems getting inside my crease. My crease would look horrible. One eye would be blended perfectly, while one eye would look a mess. I fell in love...

One of the best brush that I've ever used! It's my first (real) make up brush and I love it more and more. I bought the brush about three years ago and its still looks as good as new. It's pretty...

This is by far one of the best eyeshadow brushes I've tried. It is such a multi-purpose brush and it is amazing quality. It applies and blends perfectly. The size of the brush is just right as...

While I love this brush, it falls apart on me. I'm on my second 217, and it's already getting to the point where I'll have to replace it soon. The hairs break off half way down the bristle, leaving...

I love this brush so much that I own 2 of them. I have small and deep set eyes so I use my 217 to apply my lid colour and transition colour, then the other 217 to blend it all together. I bought my...

Since my eyelids are small, I need something smaller than this brush to blend colors on my actual eyelid. Likewise, I need something tiny to do my outer v. However, this brush works great for...

I have 2 of these, I love them for blurring out color, as that's what they do for me. I don't think the 217 is good for blending, I like the 224, 222 and 223 much better for that, they are skinnier...

Excellent brush. Really brings blending to a whole new level. Very soft bristles and really grabs on to color so that's how it blends I guess! I have small eyes and it is a bit big for my eyes, but...

This brush is amazing. I'm wondering how I was able to live without it before :D. The finish it gives is professional, it has nothing to do with the other brushes I used before. It's fluffy, soft,...

The 217 is a superstar multi-tasker brush! I often use this brush in the mornings when I’m rushed to apply colour to my lids, lower lash line and it blends it all out quickly. Also a natural...
