WOW...I am in awe of TISH's collection!
I only have dupes of the 217 & 187 so I don't have to wash them all the time!

I get up at 4:30 in the morning and just cannot deal with dirty brushes that early, I'm doing good to get my coffee. Its easier for me to have several of as many brushes as I can, plus its nice to use one for lighter colors and another for darker.

I have two of the same brushes when I use one for wet products and one for dry.. so with my 187's I use one for foundation and one for bronzers and msf's.

Welll.. You shoullddd.. Cause with a face like yours the whole world should know it! Heheeehehe..
I only have two of the 266 cause at the time I was now starting my MAC collection and wanted each fluidline to have it's own brush.. Yea.. I dunno .. :S
The second reason is the prices of the brushes.. Our MAC store has irritatingly jacked up prices! You don't wanna know how much the kabuki brush costs!

Resha,
I picked them up today. Now I can cross getting a second 219 off my list. Thanks. May I ask how you are using the larger one? I'm thinking that I could use it in the crease for a nice, controlled smokey eye

I pre-orded both the Nordie's Graphic Garden Brush sets so they could be my back up, or travel brushes.....

I think its just gonna be the 222 and 239 for me. I think. For some reason I'm getting cold feet and thinking I should pass on the dupes altogether.... But I don't wanna be ticked off a month from now and rregret it. I refuse to but duplicates of anything unless its a swap or sale.
And the next MAC sale is when? Christmas?

I have two of almost every eye brush like 239, 242, 252, 222, 224,217, etc because I use them for different colors or products like others have mentioned. 217 is one of my fav blender brushes but it is awesome for concealer and dark paint pots. 239 I could easily own more because when you fade colors horizontally over the lid it is really nice to have lots of them handy so colors don't get muddy. 242 I use wet, dry and to smudge across the the lower lash line.
Also this might just be a ridiculous justification but I feel like having multiples keeps me from constantly washing them and I feel like the life of the brush is longer. It's sortof like wearing the same shoes everyday...they don't hold up that well. It's better to rotate!
Plus don't even ask how many angle brushes I have, seriously it's about a dozen!

What are the angled eye shadow brushes best for? I saw the 272 brush on the goodbye list and wondered if it was worth getting

I keep 2 109's one for liquid foundation and one to buff a setting powder in over top. I also have a few duplicates from ordering a set from Sigma and I love having them around.
