Brushes for smaller eyelid areas

I only have one proper eyeshadow brush and it works really well overall, but for my inner and outer corners (top lid), I find it quite hard to apply pigments, shadows, etc. I don't know whether I have a smaller eyelid area than other people - the base of my brow bone seems to quite close to my lid/lashes) - or if my brush is too big.

I've had a look at the MAC brushes but really, I don't have a clue as to what would work best!

The brush I have is similar to the 252 large shader brush (but propably a little smaller), the 249 shader brush and the 242. I haven't seen these in person, only on the site, so I have no idea what size they are.

Any suggestions as to which one would work for the whole lid area, or one i could get for the smaller areas of the lid?

TIA

Re: Brushes for smaller eyelid areas

I like the 242 to pack pigments and shadows onto the lid. It sounds like you have deep set eyes...lucky....and that brush is small enough that it wouldn't get shadow all over your eyes.
