Zoeva

227 is supposed to be similar to my all time favourite MAC 217 but I find it fluffier, with longer bristles which makes it less precise. I suppose it would be nice for a wash of color on the eyelids but I prefer to pack my eyeshadow with a shader brush. Wouldn't miss it if I lost it.

I don't know why I find this brush scratchy when used with a back-and-forth motion, really disappointing. However I use it to gently place some darker eyeshadow strategically and blend with another brush. Wouldn't repurchase.

This is an ok powder brush, I don't find anything special about it but since the handle is rather short I find it convenient to keep in a small backup bag to carry daily after my retractable became too weathered to use.

This must be my favourite Zoeva brush, much like MAC 219 only a smidge wider and much softer. I use it daily to pack eyeshadow on my eyelids. Amazing!

I'm not sure about this brush... It's very tightly packed and doesn't bend much so I don't enjoy applying concealer with it but I do use it to smooth any lines out a couple of minutes after application, before setting with powder (using another brush) and blending the foundation around the nose area. Looks beautiful though and doesn't shed. Overall I find it serves some purpose but it's not a must have.
