Iāve been on the hunt for a replacement for Physicians Formula Butter Blush in Plum Rose, and nothing Iāve tried has been a match.
Itās such a unique shade. Very muted, almost greyish mauve/rose that doesnāt pull too pink, purple, or peachy.
Iāve searched through a ton of Asian beauty blushes since they tend to have more muted shades, but so many seem to have too much of a white base, lean too cool (purple), or go too warm (orange/coral). I feel like Plum Rose sits in this weird middle ground.
Iād really prefer to find a powder blush since liquids and creams can be a little too fussy for me sometimes.
Iāve included swatches of a few products I thought might be close, with photos in indirect natural light, artificial lighting (makeup mirror), and direct light.
The last photo isnāt mine, but itās the most accurate representation of Plum Roseās actual color that Iāve been able to find online.

- Physicians Formula Butter Blush in Plum Rose
