Where is my favorite blush brush. It is gone :(

I thought I was buying the same brush that has become not only my favorite... but both of my daughters as well. So I bought another for my daughters and it is not the same. SOOO disappointed. I have tried everything over months to break this in. I thought I was given the wrong brush. Now that I am reading other reviews all this time of trying to break it in, wash it several times, shape it.... didn't work. And now I am past my return timeframe. Loved when MAC would satisfy the customer no matter how long the time frame. And I really did LOVE the original brush!!!

Great for blending

I love this brush for blending in contour - the slight angle helps really make it look smooth.

Why you changed mac 168 brush to 168 S? Because i don't know how to use this brush now, i bought and I'm really disappointed , the shape and structure is completely changed.

PRICEY FOR WHAT IT IS

Not what I expected at all, it's flimsy, thin and bends when your applying product. People are saying the goat hair one is much better. Very disappointed.

My fave!

I've had this brush for 10 years now and it is hands down my favorite blush brush I've used! I have other ones but only use this one! It has kept its shape all these years
