Unique

I love collecting MAC brushes and this one is very unique. I love the shape and how it contours the curves of my face.

A True Classic

The 252 has been my brush of choice since I first ordered it around 2005. And it's still going strong! The amount of color it picks up is amazing. You'll get a nice, even wash with this brush no matter how little pigment is in the eyeshadow. If I could keep only one eyeshadow brush, this would be it.

good size brush

This brush is a good shape to apply product to the full lid. I don't have to go back and forth so many times to the product for application due to the size. However I would agree with the other reviewer, that natural brushes do seem to "blend " better. They are more costly and I do not use this brush to blend with so, depending on the intended use as to how happy you will be with this brush.

All synthetic brushes

I do not like the new synthetic brushes! They do not blend like the old ones. Please bring the old brushes back! These are not the same and I'm not the only who says this! Very disappointing!

Bring back the original 252

I, along with so many artists, are so sad about the new brushes. I have had my 252 and 242 brushes from MAC for over 8 years and they've never given me a problem so why change perfection. I know this isn't my own selfish reasoning because all my fellow makeup professionals feel the same. At least give the choice if you want 252 or 252s.
