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.

Great brush

I love the angle for applying blush or bronzer. MAC brushes last forever so the investment is worth it
