Literally the best eyeshadow brush ever

This is literally the best eyeshadow brush ever. I miss when MAC had natural hair brushes but overall, the shape of this one still wins. It's flat on the sides where you would use it to pack color on your lids and then when you rotate it 90 degrees, it's an amazing fluffy blending brush. This is a g...

Unusable

I forgot that MAC switched to synthetic brushes and bought a replacement 217 but it's absolutely unusable. The bristles are stiff, have no give and don't blend at all. The tip also oddly tapers to a point which makes for an uncomfortable experience around the eye. I returned it immediately and do...

The old 217 blended shadows much better than this one. These are similar in performance as a lot of drugstore brushes. Fortunately my old 217's are still in great condition, but I really wanted new ones for back up. I am so disappointed that the old version is no longer available anywhere.

Great concealer brush

I use this to blend my N20 pro longwear concealer It does a great job. I'm over 50 so I have some wrinkles and it blends wonderfully, doesn't look chalky & doesn't crack . Of course I use a primer & use moisturizer before use

It is Expensive but It is Worth It

I bought this because I've heard from many people that MAC brushes are amazing. I never tried the previous versions of the brush until synthetic brushes came out so I was a bit worried, but it was a waste of time worrying. The brush is very soft and very easy to use for blending. I use my MAC 239 brush for doing the base and adding other colors on top of the base and use 217 brush to gently smooth the blending overall and also use it to do shadows on my noses and it works perfectly.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

The tip also oddly tapers to a point which makes for an uncomfortable experience around the eye. I returned it immediately and do not recommend it, especially as the cost is ridiculously high for a synthetic brush. **A few great 217 alternatives are the Wayne Goss #18 and Rephr #01 (both natural hair) and the Zoeva Luxe 227 (a mix of natural & synthetic). Zoeva makes a few variations of the 227 so check the description to make sure it has the mixed bristles.

This is literally the best eyeshadow brush ever. I miss when MAC had natural hair brushes but overall, the shape of this one still wins. It's flat on the sides where you would use it to pack color on your lids and then when you rotate it 90 degrees, it's an amazing fluffy blending brush. This is a great one for any eyeshadow lover to have in their collection—whether you are a beginner or professional, and no matter what eye shape.
