I think this is too small for concealer, I haven't figured out a genious way to use this, other than patting on eyeshadow in the inner corners and highlighting under my brow, but it's not perfect...

I don't actually use this to apply concealer, but its perfect for cleaning up makeup around my eyes and nose. I've had it for years and wash it regulary, it doesn't shed but its frayed slightly.

Bad. Just bad. Waste of money. You cannot, and should not apply concealer with this product on your undereye area. You will damage it. The brush is stiff, spiky, and pokes the area of skin you...

When i bough concealer at the MAC counter the assistant gave me brush 217 to apply concealer with. I tried this but found that the concealer under my eye would be to cakey. Then i bought a mac...

I really like it. I bought it both for under eyes and to cover spots. Actually, it looks more natural if I keep covering spots using my fingertips but this brush is GREAT for undereyes. My...

Possibly my favourite brush so it surprised me that it took this long to review it. Prior to this I used the Benefit concealer brush, which in comparison just seemed utterly useless. The flat sides...

As usual another great brush from MAC! I love this for concealer, it is very soft and gets into hard to reach areas. I also use it for foundation, it works just as well. I just love it, it helps...

This is my new favorite brush. For a person with Deep Undereye Circles - it is a miracle worker. Because the bristles area are thinner and a bit longer than any other concealer brush - you can...

The 194 does nothing for me whatsoever. I feel it's too compact and stiff, which causes streaking and very little uniform when stippling. However, the 217 is far better for this purpose, as appling...

This brush never sees the light of day. I purchased this brush in hope of a more precise concealer application over acne blemishes. The brush is too soft, which makes it difficult to achieve...

Like most MAC brushes, this is good quality, obviously, but I honestly don't see the need. I guess if you want it for precise application like around the lips it would be useful, but for general...

I only use this brush to spot apply concealer to blemishes and I have to say I really don't like it. It's too floppy to get concise application and blend well. I don't use this brush anymore; I...

This is a nice brush to have around but is not a necessity. It's quite small so you have to work a bit harder/longer to blend in the concealer to your skin. I got this in a set but i wouldn't have...

Firstly, I have the SE 2007 Antiquitease Heirlooms edition, so it might not be exactly the same as the original. That being said - Hell yes, I love this brush. This is my daily concealer brush,...
