E/S brush recs

[Char1986]

OK, I have to admit something. I don't own any MAC brushes. In fact, I don't even know what brand I'm using now, but they are definitely on their way out, so it's time for me to start looking for new ones...and I'm thinking about upgrading to some good MAC ones

My question is, which brushes are the staples for eyes? I use e/s and pigments on my eyes, so I'll need brushes for those. I'm kind of hoping I'll be able to find some used ones here and on MUA so I don't break the bank

The 217, 219 and 242 are staples for me.

I love the 272, I think it's really versatile. 222 is great for the crease.

224, 242, and the 266.

239 for shading, 224 for blending =D

search for 'MAC brushes', i know this has been answered about 20 times, and a lot of the other posts have really good, comprehensive answers.

still, the 239, 217, and 266. i could use just these 3, and be just fine.
