I have the 212 SE as I received this as part of a set. I personally think this is a great brush with densely packed and firm bristles. I really like using this brush to apply eye shadow to upper...

Either wet eyeshadow or creme liner is easily applied with this, and you can control the thickness of the line. Love it. If you use MAC pigments as liners, you need this brush.

I'm not a huge fan of this brush. I feel like it lacks precision and winds up doing its own thing for my liner, usually making it thicker than I intended. I gave it a 2 because it is sometimes...

I've always heard people rave about MAC brushes, and this one is my first, and I love it! I use it to apply my Fluidline liner, and the shape is perfect for it. It was a very nice brush, and so far...

I love, love, love this brush. It's almost obscene. I use it wet with eyeshadow for eyeliner, and it gives me the most beautiful line imaginable. It took very little practice to get the look...

I'm truly surprised by the mediocre rating this brush has. It is one of my most used and most useful brushes! I was previously using a Japonesque flat liner brush, but the bristles on that one...

This brush is great for defining and lining with eyeshadow. It is quite fine so you can really get the base of the lashline or underneath the lower lashes with an eyeshadow to get great...

The MAC MA suggested using this for tightlining with Fluidlines, but I have a hard time doing so. It is good for pressing liner into the lashline, but it's so wide that I find it less than exact. I...

I got this brush along with four others in the colour forms brush set. I have to say that this and the stippling brush are the only ones I liked. You can use this brush to line your eyes and you...

This could have been a great brush if it weren't so wide. I don't know why it has to be so wide. Eyes have contours! However, the bristles are firm and ideal for eyeliners. With very careful...
