If you are not opposed to a high sheen in your blush, then you may want to check out some of the colors from MAC’s extra dimension blush line**. In my experience, Faux Sure and Hushed Tone are more subtle of a sheen than the other shades pictured. There are no large particles but I feel like, for me, they are getting close to a more metallic finish and I prefer satin and matte finish blushes.

It looks like at some point they discontinued the shades telling glow. You may be able to find telling glow in a CCO (Cosmetics Company Store) for a discount if you live near an outlet mall that has one. If you are not sure if you are near a CCO, you can check here (Tanger outlets) and here (Simon Premium outlets) to find out.
The extra dimension blush retails for $30 on the MAC website.**
