Product Details+

brush 01 features a pinched, slightly flat ferrule that creates an oval-shaped brush head with natural undyed goat hair bristles. the tapered tip allows for both broader coverage when laid flat and more precise work when turned on its edge. the lightweight plastic handle is shorter than many traditional eye brushes. community members frequently compare its shape and size to the original mac 217.

Reviews+

roughly 85% of community members describe brush 01 as their most versatile eye brush, praising its ability to both pack on color and blend it out. softness is the most universally noted quality, with around 80% calling it softer than comparable brushes they own. approximately 65% say it works well with both powder and cream products. about 12% of community members with smaller or hooded eyes note the brush head is slightly too large for their lid space. a small number of community members noted some bristle splaying or fraying after washing.

Usage+

blending transition shades in the crease (72%)
one-and-done wash of color over the full lid (58%)
packing shadow onto the outer corner (34%)

Product FAQ+

can i do a full eye look with just this one brush?

about 58% of community members say they regularly use brush 01 as their only eye brush for simpler looks. the flat side lays down color across the lid, while the tapered tip lets you work into the crease or outer corner. for more complex, multi-shade looks, most community members pair it with a dedicated blending or detail brush.

will this work on hooded eyes?

many community members with hooded eyes consider brush 01 a go-to. roughly 20% of reviews specifically mention hooded eyes, and the majority of those find the size and shape effective for crease placement and blending. about 12% of community members with smaller or heavily hooded lids feel it runs a bit large and prefer pairing it with a smaller brush for precision.

how does it compare to the mac 217?

community members who reference the mac 217 overwhelmingly say brush 01 is a worthy successor or upgrade. they note it has a similar shape but is softer and slightly more tapered. several community members specifically switched to brush 01 after mac transitioned the 217 to synthetic bristles and report preferring the natural hair performance.

does it work with cream eyeshadows or just powders?

around 65% of community members confirm brush 01 handles both powder and cream products well. it picks up cream formulas without absorbing too much product and blends them smoothly. a small number of community members noted that very stiff cream formulas can be trickier and suggest using lighter pressure or a dedicated flat brush for heavy creams.

is it good for beginners who don't use many brushes?

community members frequently recommend brush 01 as the first or only eye brush someone needs. roughly 40% describe it as beginner-friendly because it forgives imprecise technique and naturally diffuses color. the flat-to-tapered shape lets you experiment with packing, blending, and crease work without switching tools.
