    This is def a HG brush for me. Perfect straight line every time whether thick or thin, and to smoke it out. Makes application for gel eyeliners unbelievably easy for those with less steady hands,...

    You get great control with this brush. Easy to use. I like this much better than 210 for gel eyeliners. I think this is the best brush for fluid lines. Will buy again.

    This is such a great brush, after reading the reviews I bought it to use with my gel e/l. It was super easy to use; i did practice a bit with my jane e/l too (that might've helped too). I just...

    I love this little brush… I have little eyelids so it’s a good fit! It’s absolutely perfect for cream eye shadow. I use it with Shiseido’s Hydro-Powder shadows when I want a true-to-pan, vibrant...

    This brush is totally UNDERhyped. I had my mom buy it when she was in NY a month ago because it's been out of stock for months in Malaysia. Now I wish I'd gotten two :) It's a small flat...

    My must-have brush. I bought it primarily for applying eyeliner gel.... and WOW! It's small and stiff that guarantees precise applications, yet soft enough that won't hurt the lids. From the...

    This and the #219 are the perfect brushes for me. This brush is a short, thin, small shading brush made of synthetic fibers. This is a duo fiber brush with white tips. Great with powder and cream...

    Love this brush! I dip it in any of the dark eyeshadows, such as the black one from the new Gentle Fume palette to line between my eye lashes and the bottom of my eye. Its hair is soft enough...

    Awesome little multitasker! This flat, thin, compact little paddle shaped beauty works for packing pigment or shadow onto small areas as well as for lining and tightlining both the upper and lower...

    Just got this brush recently and I can see that this is definitely going to be very useful. I used it for lining with my f/l and it works wonderfully - very even and thin line. At the same time,...

    I bought this brush a couple of months ago and literally said, "oh crap" as soon as I got it home. I tried the in store tester - which must've been pummeled to death - and found it to be a soft...

    I bought this brush for applying e/s but then I actually now use it for concealer! It's a good size for me, and the perfect firmness. When I first bought it (for eyeshadow) I found myself...

    I'm so glad I read the reviews here before purchasing an eyebrush. I have Asian eyes that are not very deep-set and I normally have a problem applying e/s with regular e/s brushes as they are...

    The 228 brush used to be my favorite mini shader but now this one is. It really packs the color on effortlessly. Now I use the 228 mini shader for blending in small spaces. The 231 brush has...

    Ok, this is my FAVOURITE eye shadow brush and that's saying a lot, considering how many I have! My problem is that I have small Asian lids and most e/s brushes are just too large, even the famous...

    This brush works quite well to line my eyes with fluidline. I wish it were a little bit stiffer, but it is smaller than my 212 so it makes it easier to work around the curve of my eye. I also...

    This is a lifesaver brush for lining my eyes. Even before the fluidliners came out, but especially now. I haven't had much success with push brushes for the fluidliners--somehow the brush is too...
