Red Chamber Liben on Fair, Cool Skin

I just posted about Liben in r/Fairolives because I'm surprised it pulls so peach/warm on my skin. I've seen this shade look like a gorgeous desaturated, neutral-cool shade on others with a similar skin tone. Does anyone else have this problem or know if it was reformulated?

I swatched it against other cream blushes that I consider neutral-cool for comparison.

  • RED CHAMBER Haruki Multi-Purpose Cream - RC302 Liben
  • Phytosurgence Skin Spark Cream Blush Balm - Plume

Red Chamber Liben Pulls Warm?

Disclaimer: I do not have an olive skin tone (I'm very fair, pink/cool) but I figured this is the perfect community in which to ask this nuanced-color question!

I recently purchased the Red Chamber Haruki Multi-Purpose Cream in RC302 Liben thinking it would be the perfect, desaturated neutral-cool toned color that I see online. However, it looks very peach on my skin and so different than what I have seen in photos/videos of people with similar skin tones. Does anyone else have this issue? I did notice that the package is now black instead of gold, so I'm wondering if they reformulated this shade? I'm having trouble figuring this out with the info available online. Any insight on this particular product is very helpful!
