Are you looking for a blush that doesn't pack too much color yet buildable? Try this very reliable FS Cosmetics Powder Blush in Silky Coral. This semi-pigmented color is buildable and doubles as my blush or as tinted highlighter applied on my upper cheekbones. The effect on me is a youthful baby pink glow. Well, that's one of the reasons people think I'm in my late teens when I use this. It has some powder fallouts typical of powder, and there are some tiny bits of glitter. Once applied, it doesn't look shimmery or glittery though, so those particles add some healthy glow. The good this about this blush is that at the end of the day, when my face has a little shine, it doesn't add up to the shine and still well behaved. (However, I cannot say the same with the other shade, Earth Bronze. Not so much of a favorite because it looks metallic reddish-brown on my skin while the pigment is buried behind all the glitter.)

Its new incarnate as "Easy Blend Blush" now comes in regular round screw-cap pot. Silky Coral is still available but Earth Bronze has been discontinued.
