I used to like it for lining the outer corners untill I discovered the MAC 219 brush, so I hardly reach for this one any more.

I love this brush! I've had it for years and years, and it still is one of my favorite brushes! I will go over the pros and cons

PROS:
Soft yet firm.
I used it everytime I wore make up for years, and the brush is still perfect.
Tightly packed bristles, I've never seen a single bristle fall out.
It does the best job at pricision lining.
The bottom of the brush is designed to allow it to be self standing.

CONS:
The pro of it being self standing means that the bottom is wide, it takes up too much space in my make up bag and in my brush stand.

Oh my goodness, that is the only bad thing I can say about it, the bottom is too wide. This is the perfect brush. The plastic finally snapped off, so I no longer have a full size brush, but it is now the perfect size inside one of my eyeshadow case.

I bought two other angled brushes because I need them to line my eyes, and I've not been as satisfied with them as I am with this one. I think that means I need to make a trip to TBS soon!

I use this to fill in my brows - it's quite soft but still manages to be somewhat firm and precise like other reviewers have mentioned. Applies brow powder nicely and some say they use it for gel liners too. I personally don't as the brush it a bit too big for my eyes.

I've had this for over 2 years and use it almost everyday to fill in my brows. It's firm but not too stiff and picks up just enough powder to do the job, dosent splay too! It's a keeper

I've only had this brush for a few months, but I like it. Soft, yet firm enough to allow precise application of eyeliner. I mostly use it for gel liners or for wet application of eye shadows along the lash line. For me, it works especially well for the lower lash line (I have long eyelashes and it's difficult if I use a puffier brush). I also occasionally use it for my eyebrows and it works just as well.

Lovely brush - I mainly use it to fill in my eyebrows with powder. I was previously using a slanted MAC brush but this is *far* superior in quality! Picks up a good amount of powder and distributes it well. I occasionally use it to apply gel liners and it does the job well too. Would definately repurchase. It's a little pricey at £8.50 but worth it.

Its a soft brush and for that i really like it. I usually use it to line my eyes or add shimmer to my lids and it works really well for both purposes.

1 brush is enough for me but if it breaks i would buy it again. I've had mine for 2 years and its still in good condition.

I like this brush.
As one of the reviewers already said, the bristles are soft - but the brush is still precise, and it's possible to draw a perfect line with it.
I would recommend this brush.
I am not going to buy it again for me, but I am definitely going to buy it as a present for somebody else.

The Body Shop Angled Brush was just so beautiful once I purchased it, but it's not so great any more. I've had this for about a year or so, and it's definitely not as precise or clean as it was when I first bought this. The bristles have all fluffed out with stray hairs sticking out. Sometimes I like to use eyeshadow as my eyeliner and because of the stray bristles, I can't get a clean, precise line. Not only this, but the metal part attached to the handle completely came off. I am very gentle when it comes to cleaning my brushes and wash it regularly to keep it clean, and when I keep it to dry, I never stand it upright, so I'm not sure why these things have happened. Two lippies because it's good for applying a wash of colour all over my lids and for smudging pencil liner for a softer look. Also for the fact that it has soft bristles, yet its' firm enough to apply eyeshadow evenly and smoothly. But overall, I'm not impressed at how long this brush lasted and will not be purchasing TBS brushes any more.

I got this brush in a mini brush set and I love using it for cream and gel eyeliner. It puts on a nice, smooth line and is very easy to use.

My problems with it are that it's not as thin as some liner brushes, so it can't give as precise a line. It's bristles seem to give away easier, making the line thicker. Still good quality brush.

I can use this brush to apply both powder eyeliner and a cream liner, like a fluidline. You can draw a pretty thin line with it. Works great for me! Looks like double the size of MAC 266. I normally use this for lining my lower lids with a powder eyeshadow.

This came in a package with the blush brush, eyeshadow brush and lip/concealer brush.

Definately worth to buy as i feel that its easier to define or make precise lines while doing up your eyes..Love it and would always use it..

I was not happy with this product. The bristles were stuck together with what seemed like glue when I purchased the brush. I manage to get them unstuck and when I used the brush it really hurt my eyes, it was mega scratchy! I will definetly be going back to MAC brushes. They are much more gentle and good quality. Would not recommend this brush.
