Loosing bristles
I bought the brush under the suggestion of the assistant in Mac Norwich, I had gone in for the 170, which was out of stock. I don't find this brush that easy to work with but persevered, then I started to notice the bristles coming out as I use it. It's so annoying as I wish I'd got the 170 .

Thank you for trying our 187S Brush, Liz. I apologise the 170S was out of stock and this was not a suitable replacement. I am also concerned to hear the bristles have started to come out and would like to assist further.

Multipurpose brush
This brush is amazing and is a multi tasking brush. From applying primer, to liquid, to cream blush, to powder. I can use both sizes to get every part of my face. Wish I got this brush sooner before collecting the other MAC brushes. Application is beautiful and make sure to cleanse brush often.

Good for bronzers and highlight
I love using stipple brushes to gently apply pigmented powder products. this seamlessly blends my bronzer on and makes sure i'm not applying too much. i also love this for highlighting - it gives me that 'lit from within' glow

Sheds & Hard to Clean
I use this brush mostly for my Mineralize Skin Finish & I just recently started using it for my Face & Body. The biggest issue is that is sheds so bad, which is horrible for me b/c I have a phobia of hair, so having the left over hair from the brush all over my face makes my flesh crawl. Also, the brush does not pick up and apply enough product to my face, I feel it wastes product because it spreads it around and you have to use more.

It's a love/not so love relationship
Been using this brush for years and after a little while yes it does shed. It is disappointing and expensive. I also clean it with the MAC cleaner. Considering this, the price should reflect that or maybe it is time to move on to a different brush altogether.
I see many negative reviews about this product, but this has been my favorite brush (for applying bronzer and blush ) over 15 years. I never use this for cream or liquid though.
The Brush Does Shed
I loved this brush when I first purchased it, but it shed after I cleaned it with MAC Brush Cleaner. The store I purchased it at is no longer open.
Brush sheds
I have 6 or so different MAC brushes, but this brush is the most disappointing brush purchase. I have used it here and there for a few years but now I rarely use it because of its constant shedding. I take great care of all my brushes with the Mac cleaner but this brush just sheds on every use regardless of the product used in the application. I think the trash bin will be the only use for it now. So disappointed.
