I received some lovely blush samples from J.Lynne Cosmetics' fab Latin Rhythms collection, and I am SO SO in love with them. Some of them are matte, which I absolutely love, and some have shimmer but the latter is very subtle, you almost can't detect it until light hits your cheekbones, and even then, it isn't garish. Here are some swatches. These are applied dry using a Q-tip. I used a heavy hand so as to make the color pop against the glare of the flash. Keep in mind though that it is very easy to create beautiful glow-from-within looks using these gorgeous blushes; it's all in the tool used and in the application. I personally use either my MAC 187 stippling brush which picks up and applies color very subtly, or my Sonia Kashuk angled blush brush to apply lightly at an angle, and buff it with my flat-top bronzer brush.
