I call this brush my "little monster" brush cause it is so versatile! I use it for blush, bronzer, highlighting, powder in general. I use it for MAC's Select Sheer powder and it works like magic....

I prefer small blush brushes so I purchased the 116. It is dense and picks up alot of color. I find it a bit scratchy for my cheeks. So I don't use it very much.

This is my new favorite blush brush. I have a small face, so I like brushes that are a little smaller and this is perfect. You can do it all with this brush. It's sort of flat so it's great for...

This is a must have if you want perfect blush, perfect contouring and a perfect powder application. This brush does all three beautifully. I am not much of a brush person by nature. I often find...

Simply the best blush brush Mac has to offer, IMO. The only downside is the price. All in all, it's a great tool!

This brush picks up blush really easily and deposits well on your cheeks. There is not much waste. However, I think there are heaps of blush brush out there which are cheaper, synthetic and can do...

Looking for a MAC Blush Brush? #116! It is a pretty small blush brush (compared to most) which is perfect for my face. The tip of the brush is tapered which is great for blush, bronzer or even...

My everday, go to blush brush! Fit's right onto the apples of my cheeks. Better for my face than the 129 (too large for blush on my face). The 116 is a must have!

A MUST brush. Excellent for contouring, hi lighting. I prefer to apply blush with kabuki brush though.

Finally I've found the right blush brush for me. Densely packed, yet it allows you to build color easily. I also use this in applying highlighters.

Love this way more than te 129 because it's very practical since it's great for blush but also precise enough to apply highlighter and to contour. love it!

I feel this blush brush is the perfect size for my face. Most blush brushes are large and round so I often have the tendency of placing powder blush on a larger area of my cheek than I prefer. I...
