    This is an ingenius brush. It's suppose to wipe away the eyeshadow that landed on your face (from falling off your brush). It doesn't smear the eyeshadow at all!!! This is especially handy when I...

    This brush is great for doing washes and for blending! However, for precise crease work especially for girls with very little visible eye folds, then it's not as good at depositing color, because...

    I have not found a brush that makes applying crease shades so easy! Others have said it's too big and fluffy, but I ahve to disagree. I will never look for another brush again. It is also great...

    This is the first brush I ever bought from MAC. I orginally used it for an all over brush and a crease brush. It is WAY to full and thick for a crease brush, but perfect for using all over. The...

    This is a nice brush but it's much to soft and the bristles are to long to be used as an efficient crease brush IMO.

    I agree with everyone else that the 224 is definitely too big, soft, and fluffy to use as a crease brush. For the crease I prefer a smaller brush with slightly stiffer bristles for more controlled...

    For the longest time, this brush sat unused in my brush container since it was too big and floppy to use in my crease. I just learned that it's great for applying shadow as an all over wash as...

    this brush is lousy as a crease brush (too big, too fluffy, too soft). instead, it's perfect as a blending brush, especially for lazy girls like moi who are in a rush most mornings. just apply your...

    I love this brush! My brushes vary from very cheap ($2 at Sally's) to expensive, for me (Aveda). This brush was $26, which was more than my actual make-up items I was buying it for, so I had to...

    I originally bought this to use in my crease area (does a good job), but found its best application is for all-over...so I bought a second so that I can use one for lighter colors and the other for...

    I wasn't really impressed with this brush. It is shaped wierd and too long. I use it on occasion, but rarely reach for it.

    I like this brush... but it's not my favourite. I use this for blending my shadow. It's a bit too soft and long and 'big' to apply crease colour with, for me anyway, but does a great job of...

    This is an okay brush. I got it with my 2002 Holiday brush kit, so maybe it's not the same quality as a regular brush. It's way too big to use as a crease brush on my eyes, so I use it mainly for...

    THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO OTHER BRUSH ON THE FACE OF THIS EARTH THAT ACHEIVES THE LOOK OF A DEEPER CREASE THAN THIS BRUSH> IT FITS EXACTLY WHERE IT IS SUPPOSED TO ON ANYONE. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!!!

    For a sheer application of medium to dark color eye shadows to the crease, this brush is excellent. I also use it to apply face powder all over my eyelids before applying e/s. However, this brush...

    I really like this brush, even though at first I hated it. It gives a nice sheer wash of eyeshadow and a very soft look. I find myself reaching for it over my old firm favorite brushes.

    This brush made blending and creating a smokey eye SO much easier. When I bought it, I didn't know how I lived without it. :P It's not a great crease brush because it's too soft, but it's perfect...

    I love this brush. It's a foolproof way of applying even the darkest shadows in the crease. My coloring is very light so this helps me from going overboard on the eyeshadow. It blends and...

    This is OK for a crease brush, but not impressive--unevenly cut bristles. There are otheres out there I like more with better quality bristles--like Trish.
