This is my other fave blending brush... I love it to blend colors that are already on the lid... or to blend one color over the other... i dont like it much for the crease though cuz it always seems to get messy, and for a wash of color or for a soft highlight its GREAT!!!

When i discovered the 217 brush, i thought i would never use this brush again. The fact is i still need this brush. It blends very well when i apply on color too harshly. It applies color not as vividly as the 217, but still essential to have to make sure things blend well. i usually use this brush first to have a wash of color on my crease, and then go back and use the 217 to apply more color where i need it. That way there is not a harsh line where my highlite and crease color begins. Hope that made sense! I will never doubt this brush again!

This by far is my favorite blending brush. Some of the other blending brushes give a sharper effect. This one is great for subtle crease work. I have no idea what I did before I got this brush. It's amazing.

I recently saw this brush at a CCO...the first time I saw it I didn't buy it. After about a week of serious consideration, due to the fact that most people rave about it, I went back and purchased it. I just tested it 5 minutes ago and I am SOLD! It takes the guess work out of blending. I own a 217 and I like that simply to apply shadow, not to blend. I adore this brush and can't believe I waited SO LONG to get it.

This brush is perfect for blending into your crease, blending eyeshadows together, and getting the perfect wash of color! I could not work without this brush.

I like this brush for blending my crease color upward, or blending my highlight. Also good for getting a nice soft blend on hard-to-blend shadows. It is veeeery soft though. If your looking for a good blend, but still wanna keep your look dramatic, go for the 217. Kinda too big to use on my actual lids. I do have tiny lids though.
