    Wow, i really expected more from this brush. While it is good for applying shadow on the inner parts of the lid, or applying shadow to the lower lashline...its really pokey! I like its size and...

    Not my favorite MAC brush. I initially bought 2 of them, thinking I'd use them all the time, but I don't. The bristles are synthetic, so they're kinda rough and they don't pick up color very well....

    I've used the Estee Lauder e/s brush but the hairs were falling out so I needed a new brush... SInce I already have brushes from MAC I thought to get an e/s brush. Love it! Tanja

    I have a good friend that works at MAC and she used this to give me a smokier look by using this brush to pack more shadow on the corner of my crease. I bought it and do use it for that purpose,...

    I've given this a 4 because, as with all MAC brushes, it's a really good quality brush. To be perfectly honest, I can't remember what specific purpose I bought it for now and it's one of those...

    I just love this brush for intricate eyeshadow application. This is my first MAC brush, previously I used Napoleon brushes - I have to say I prefer MAC over Napoleon.

    Great brush for eyeshadow application on small or narrow eyelids. But it also works great to blend liquid concealer (MAC Moisturecover) on the undereye area. <p> The brush head is dense and the...

    I bought this to apply as it should be a small version of brush #213. I use this to apply eyeshadow along my eye crease. Very good to use and I love the texture of the brush. Didn't realise that...

    I love this little brush. It's great for outter crease work and for highlight. I also use it for smudging out liner. It's not as firm as my PD smudge brush but it is densely packed and wonderful. ...

    Initially I thought this was a complete waste because it was too small to do anything but now I realize how versatile it is. It’s perfect for highlighting around the inner eye corners, applying...

    I love this brush for just generally putting intense colour on my lids. It's very soft, and does the job well. I have pretty small creases, so this fits in perfectly, unlike a lot of larger e/s...

    This is the perfect brush for applying shadow to small lids. The #20 brush from Studio Gear (Ulta) is $4 cheaper and does about the same thing as this MAC brush.

    This is one of the MAC brushes that I can definitely do without, not a MUST have IMO! I tried to use it on crease, it was too small and for lid, it just took too much time to apply e/s all over, so...

    I love this brush. It is perfect for doing detailed eyeshadow work. I use it also for lining with eyeshadow to make a thicker type line.
