I went throught the same thing!

However for some reason I can't update it. It's not on the website anymore. The took it down and then a few weeks later put it up and now it's gone yet again.... Maybe they are having problems producing it because I see it at my store occasionaly. I sent them an email asking about it but I never got a reply. I think MAC would be crazy to get rid of it completely it's a great brush!!!

It's like a mini kabuki but not quite as dense and not as wide. Kim Kardashian has a foundation tutorial on her site and her MA uses it if you need an exact picture. I think there's a thread about that already on here.

Here's a picture from eBay. I used to have it. I didn't like it too much though so I gave it to my brother's girlfriend. I've been thinking of getting another one to give it another chance. The first one cost me like 45 bucks so the one on eBay is a steal!

You can still order them through the pro line. I placed an order this morning (including this brush) and they said they had a couple of them left. I paid $42.

Thanks to everyone who helped me. I followed advice above and called around my local stores. I was able to find one fairly easily. I'm a little appalled at how expensive they are going for on ebay. I did receive a PM from a new member telling me to look on ebay. The day I started the thread there was none for sale, now there's 10, most of them at ridiculous prices.

If you call the regular MAC number they will give it to you. Be prepared to wait on hold for awhile though

Also, some other people have suggested purchasing the #183 in lieu of the 180 as they are apparently quite similar. I am still waiting for mine to show up so I cant attest to how close they really are...

I really love it! I know a lot of people are getting it because of "the hype" around it, but it's really great. If you wear liquid foundation a lot, it's well worth it.

I've been using it a lot lately with my MSFN for foundation as well as with my pressed Pur Minerals foundation.

It's so versatile. No other brush I've ever had is that dense, but that soft. It's great.

I heard about it b/c of all the hype, but it does seem to leave her MU flawless well on TV at least. Well I guess i can give it a try. Thanks and keep up the awesome videos.

Just wanted to follow up and say how much I love this brush!! It applies my foundation flawlessly. I used to use the 187 with my MUFE F & B and I like the 180 so much better. I think the denser bristles blend my makeup more flawlessly than the 187. Totally worth it!! In fact, I bought a second one to use with dry products.

I got my 2 brushes from Gone But Not Forgotten the other day, it took almost 4 weeks but was well worth it! I used it this morning with my liquid foundation and its awesome!!!! The coverage is perfect! It really does help to give that airbrushed look. The only thing I cant figure out is how to evenly cover the brush with the foundation? When I put the foundation on my hand and then tap the brush into it it only goes into a certain part of the brush. I tried swirling the brush into the foundation and it was a bit better but does anyone have a trick?

I have to dab the brush in a few spots to get it covered evenly. But then I don't want too much on there b/c I don't want heavy coverage. Yesterday I dotted the foundation on my face with my finger, then used my brush to blend it in. It worked well, but I had to move quickly b/c I use MUFE F&B and it dries kinda fast. I don't feel its necessary to get the entire brush covered tho. It gets covered once you start moving it around on your face, ya know?
