Answer 2

its not the brush its how you use it :D

Answer 3

that's right (from what the previous person said). it matters how you use it and what you use it for. well, since you are a beginner maybe start with the basic brushes. for example, you will need one brush to apply shadow on the lid and brow bone and brush to apply shadow on the crease. my favorite mac brush is 217 (fluffy brush). i use it to blend the shadow on my crease and it blends soooooooooooooooo well. i took a makeup artistry class and everyone had the same opinion on the 217 brush. i even have some friends that just use the brush alone in applying all three eye shadows. for example, (using the 217 brush) use one side to apply the light shadow on the lid, the other side for highlighting brow bone, and the bottom part to apply shadow on the crease. it is multi-functional :).

if you are also applying eyeliner either liquid or pencil you can use the eyeliner mac brush 266. you can use it to smudge your eyeliner (after applying pencil eyeliner) on your lash line.

i would also recommend mac 239 brush, which is used for applying shadow on the lid/brow bone..packs on a lot of color if you dab it on rather than swiping it back and forth like in a wind-shield motion.

that's all i would get for now if you are on a budget unless you also want to get the powder/foundation brushes.
