Soft Summer Liquid Blush Swatches – One ABers quest to dupe A’pieu Juicy Pang Blusher in VL03

Swatched all my liquid blushes. I've been on a quest to dupe the dearly departed A'pieu Juicy Pang Blusher in VL03, which was the perfect sheer muted cool pink for me, and I think I've mostly succeeded. I have one (ancient, expired, not-actively-used) bottle left so I swatched it against the others I own on my arm. I blended each blush with clean fingers, waited ten minutes, then added a dab of each below the blended swatch to show oxidation (if any). In terms of skin tone, I wear Missha Perfect Cover BB in #13, blended with a bit of sunscreen to make it lighter/sheerer (applied over a separate layer of sunscreen). I included two photos of my arm without the blush containers, the light outdoors varied from minute to minute so I got pictures in bright, warm sunlight and pictures in cloudier light.

Swatched from top to bottom:

• A'pieu Juicy Pang Blusher in VL03
• FEEV Hyper-Fit Color Serum in Happiness
• FEEV Hyper-Fit Color Serum in Healthy Pink
• House of Hur Moist Ampoule Blusher 04 Lavender Flush
• nuse Liquid Care Cheek in 02 Fig Fog
• nuse Mousse Care Cheek Handy 05 DIMDUMB

In my opinion, the best dupes for A'pieu VL03 are the FEEV in Happiness and the House of Hur in 04 Lavender Flush, both in color and in sheerness, although imo in terms of formula thickness the A'pieu is between the House of Hur (lighter) and the FEEV (heavier).

Quick reviews of formulas:

FEEV – Sheer and somewhat watery. Does fade somewhat on the cheeks but I like the formula as it's easier for me to control how much I put on. Happiness and Healthy Pink are very similar but Healthy Pink is slightly darker and more neutral than Happiness and looks more natural, like my cheeks but slightly sunburned. Wouldn't recommend this formula/these colors for skin tones outside pale-to-light shades because they're both sheer.

House of Hur – Sheerest blush but otherwise fairly similar to FEEV. Wouldn't recommend this color for darker skin, but I think House of Hur has a couple of colors in the same formula that are supposed to be more pigmented so those may work for people with skin tones that aren't pale/light?

nuse Liquid Care – Pigmented for a non-matte blush! Formula is heavier, note how thick it looks in the dot swatch. Lasts very well, but does oxidize to a different color on the cheeks (in the swatch you can see it's more orange when blended) also tends to separate, which you can see when using the pump. I'm a little disappointed in this shade/formula because it pulls so orange when oxidized.

nuse Mousse Care – Pigmented and very matte/dry. Also oxidizes on the cheeks, blended it's much less purple and more brownish. I really like the color but my skin is on the drier side so the formula makes my cheeks feel tight after a while.
