I have found this brush to be the best for blending eyeshadows. It is very soft to the touch and I find it to be very precise. As always with MAC products, it is a bit pricey - but worth every penny.

The 224 is very good at blending harsh lines but so does the 217 brush. I found the 224 would blend my eyeshadow quite high towards my browbone. I think it's because it's so fluffy that the brush...

This is my HG crease brush. I do not use any other. MAC brushes are my favorite. They are the best at picking up e/s and depositing on your lid. This is the best for your crease, to blend...

This is brush is a necessity. I only apply highlight color with it, but I use it for blending out my crease color. It would be too big to actually apply crease or lid color to my eyes, but I...

This is my favorite MAC brush. It was the 3rd, I'd purchased, and although I like the others, I was not able to perfectly contour my shadow until I purchased this one...also it blends like a dream.

I use this brush daily to blend eye shadow in my crease area, or to add a highlight color to my brow bone. The brush has very little hair fall out.

Another HG brush! I use it to blend at the crease, create seamless smokey eyes, and give any opaque shadow a sheer look.

This is one I use daily, you cannot beat the blending ability. Maybe you can, but as a novice I find this brush very user friendly and forgiving if need be.

MAC Brushes #217 and #224, both valuable additions to my makeup arsenal, are confusing b/c they are marketed as "blending" brushes. Not so! I like the 217 ($22.50 USD) for depositing shadow into...

This is my go-to blender brush. For softening the line in the crease it's superb. I also use it for adding and blending colour to the outer edge of the lid. However, don't use this brush if you...
