really good shape for my monolided sometimes hooded lids. the longer bristles help to create a crease without pressure. really pleased with this. soft and flexible. not too stiff. i leave the 219...

Honestly, I don't like this brush. I've probably used it twice. I prefer shorter bristles myself. I would not recommend this brush.

This is a very nice brush...but...it's just not big enough for my eyes or something. I've had a lot of trouble try to figure out how to use it properly. I've had it for about 5 months now. It's...

I love this brush!! It is multi-purpose. I use it for blending and applying color to the crease error. It is also good for creating an outer-v. It is not a popular or most talked about brush by...

I bought a package of full size MAC brushes at a CCO. There were 4 in the package I wanted 3 of them super bad (187..263..) except the 222 brush. In the end.. the 222 is really becoming by HG in...

I purchased this brush at a CCO, after being disappointed that they ran out of the 187's, which I have now from a regular MAC store. I thought, what the hey, I do not have it. I went home and...

I try to buy HE brushes only if they are unique in some way. This one definitely fits the bill. It is has a tapered tip which makes it great to apply color to the corners of the eye. It is also...

AMAZING. I actually don't know how I've done my eyes for so many years without this brush. I've always wondered how some people could get such diffused smoky eyes...this is how. I love this brush...

This is the best crease/outer v brush I ever used. I've been using these round crease brushes that were too small for my lids so that I'll have these harsh lines that were hard to blend away. This...

I can't beleive that I lived without this brush. It is superior to the MAC 217 because of the densitiy and tappered shaped of the brush. I love using for applying color on my outer corner and...

After 2 disappointing returns of the 224 (which I have a review of as well), I went ahead and got the 222 brush. I absolutely love this brush! The bristles are just as long as the 224 except the...

this is my FAVORITE crease brush! i use this more than the 217! though the 217 is an awesome brush too, the 222 works better for my small asian eyes. the 222 is perfect for creating the outer V and...

I think this brush is a must have for crease work. This brush is firmer,thinner and nowhere near as fluffy as the 224 and for this very reason it works better for a more defined crease. This brush...

One of my favorite MAC brushes. This is a tapered blending brush - it is a skinnier and smaller version of the 224 brush (and I believe it is only available at MAC stores). This is the perfect...

To me, this is basically a slimmer, firmer version of the 224 (which has been a HG for me for years!) I do like this one but not as much as I thought I would. It somehow doesn't get the color...

I should have listened to the MAC makeup artist who advised me not to buy this... but stubborn me just had to have it! He told me the 217 would work better for me- and it does. (I think MAC...

I bought the #224 first but I find myself reaching for the #222 most of the time. For me, it works better for crease work & blending.
