I washed my favourite lipstick

Absolutely gutted I forgot to take a lipstick out of my jeans pocket and put it through the wash 😫

It’s discontinued so I can’t repurchase - Buxom, shade Evocative Petal - I’ve searched EBay and Vinted but can’t find the shade.

Can anyone recommend a good site that recommends dupes? I’m half tempted to take the soggy stick somewhere to see if they can colour match, but not only was it the perfect colour it had staying power, perfect texture etc.

I’m gutted and very annoyed at myself for not checking my pockets!

Great site!
Annoyingly the best dupe at 80% similarity is now also discontinued or just oos 🤦🏻‍♀️

Lipcolourmatch.com

It's an American site but the dupes seem to be available in the UK.

Temptalia relies a lot on user-submitted data so it's easier to find dupes for more famous brands. Buxom is a smaller brand so you might need to google a bit around more famous brands' pink-coral shades, and look at the dupes for those, if you see what I mean. There's a MAC colour called Crosswires which looks similar so that might be a good place to start - maybe your lipstick isn't an exact match but it might give you some leads?
