The “New” MAC 224 synthetic Tapered Blending Brush…

Hey, can I borrow your hot tub/DeLorean time device for an hour? quite please?

I requirement to get back to 2017 or, really, any type of time before MAC revamped their clean line as well as altered so numerous of their traditional brushes. such as this one: the 224.

If you state “yes,” I’ll babysit your feline or bake you brownies. What do ya say? Deal?

MAC 224S synthetic Tapered Blending clean ($34)

I desire I might stock up those old 224s since — HELLO, CRANKY pants — this new version is scratchy as well as stiff, a number of of the bristles have fallen out, as well as the ferrule is already loose.

Such a bummer, too, since the old-school 224s are beasts. I have two that are much more than five years old as well as still going strong, however they’ll have to be replaced sooner or later.

If MAC doesn’t restore the O.G. non-synthetic version, or otherwise repair this one, my plan is to ultimately spring for either one more NARS #42, which is $32 as well as BOMB, or the Chanel blending brush, which is $36.

Oh, well.
