I started doing my make-up in 2024, as I had to for professional reasons and because I really wanted to learn how to. My proper first blush was Physicians Formula Matte Monoi Butter Blush. I bought it in June 2024 and finished it today. I especially used it in Summer for my"tanned blush placement look".
It's main idea was to swirl the flowers and combine the colours –depending on how many flowers you swirled, you'd get a different colour. A great idea in theory but tricky in practice for a newbie. As I didn't properly realized how much product I needed for my cheeks, my face ended up too warmed or with uneven colours. I only realized my ideal colour after some trial and error, after which I truly enjoyed this blush. Unfortunately, as I emptied some of the flowers and became unavailable for combining colours, I bought some blushes for compensating (WW Naked Brown, WW pearlescent pink, Flormar Blush Shimmer Pink).
I loved PF formula and its fragance. It was delicious. Would I repurchase it? Not really. I want blushes that already give me the colour that I want, not a product that I need to "mix" it to get the advertised tone. I bought two 3ina blushes and I got one for free. I only tested the colours and you get the colour that the packaging shows. The 348 is a very light pink (which was the free blush), and it looks very healthy on my cheeks. The 503 is a nude colour that looks perfect for cool looks but you need to be careful with your hand. The 369 is an orangey blush superb for Summer. Very happy with my first true pan and my replacements.
