    I have the 129SE which came in a set of brushes in a black evening clutch with dangling beaded trim. I almost never wore makeup back then and the set was a way for me to get the right tools in a...

    I tried to like this blush but no avail. The bristles are soft, but yet once they hit the skin, they are a little scratchy (nothing too big though). This brush sheds A LOT... I've had it for over a...

    I use this brush for powder (116 for blush). Not too soft and it sheds a little. I wouldn't buy it again.

    Love this brush. Makes my NARS Orgasm blush look airbrushed. Super soft bristles and minimal shedding when washed with baby shampoo or MAC's brush cleanser. LOVE LOVE LOVE. Would rebuy if I had to...

    I've had this brush for 7 years and I have had no problem with the quality of the brush. This is a larger blush brush so for me I can actually use it as a powder brush. I use this when I...

    It's the ideal brush for blush application.Whether you have small face or wider face it would work. It's not very dense and not as soft as most of MAC brushes but it's still great.I use this only...

    Not my favourite brush in my collection - I was expecting something a little denser and softer. I tend to use it now to dust powder lightly over my face, rather than for blusher (which was what I...

    Not a bad brush, but I'm sure you can find plenty of other dupes made by cheaper brands that are the same quality. Not a lot of shedding with this brush and has the ability to apply blush well. Too...

    This is too small to be a powder brush in my opinion so I only use it for blush (plus I already own the 150 which is essentially a bigger version of this and better suited for an all over face...

    Got this brush a long time ago and just writing a review now. I've had it for maybe 5+ years and overtime, the shedding was really bad, but recently it eventually stopped. I find that its scratchy,...

    This brush is definitely a must-have brush. I paid $300 TTD for this brush and I do not regret it at all. I actually went for another brush but that was out of stock so I picked up this one...

    I use this mainly for blush but it also is fab for powder and bronzer. It's super soft and sweeps blush on perfectly. It doesn't irritate my sensitive skin at all. I have had no issues with it...

    Well, the lady at the MAC counter recommended this brush to me for blush application and it works good for the application. But I have noticed that the bristles are really rough. :/ I have...
