MY 2 CENTS
#787B is made with bamboo handles and vegan, synthetic bristles, and is 6″ long. Although synthetic, these bristles are so, so, so soft and the brush is very light.
#787B was made “for controlled lightweight application on the eye crease & around nose area.”
When I bought this brush, I was hoping to find a dupe for MAC #224 Tapered Blending brush. Essentialy, I wanted to use #787B the way I use MAC #224- for blending concealer under the eyes, around the nose, etc. Unfortunately, I feel that the bristles on #787B are too stiff and long for this purpose, especially under the eye area. The brush is too full and doesn’t work well with cream products.
I have found use for the brush, though! It works better with powder products so I use it for setting concealer under the eye with loose powder.
