Blush, similar to Orgasm but non-shimmery?

Any recommendations? I never made it to Sephora today, and tomorrow my car goes into the shop, so I'm browsing online (which ain't easy... the colors are always "off"). I want a light peachy pink, like Orgasm, but I hate that damn shimmer.

    Nars :)  It is a different shade, but it is not shimmery.  I've often seen it listed as an alternative for Orgasm.  Orgasm doesn't work for me (too orange, and I don't want shimmer), and I like Deep Throat. 

    Here's a blog comparing them: http://powderandlipgloss.blogspot.com/2010/07/nars-orgasm-versus-nars-deep-throat.html 

  • Smashbox Chiffon is an even better version IMO. It isn't matte, but it definitely has less shimmer. 

    MAC will definitely have one that's similar. Springsheen is close.

    Check out the dupe list on Temptalia.

  • Bobbi Brown's blush in Nectar is very similar in color, and not shimmery.  I have both and prefer the BB.

  • NARS Amour is actually Orgasm without the shimmer. Deep Throat is a different color.

    I agree completely. Deep Throat does have a shimmer, but it's more subtle than Orgasm. But I adore Amour. It's my favorite.

  • If you want 100% matte, check out the amazon clay Tarte blushes..most are matte.
  • Try "Hot Mama" by The Balm.  Very close in color, far less shimmer.

    I was going to say the same thing. They're very similar. I also just got Bobbi Brown Antigua and it's a tad lighter pink than orgasm. 

    FYI -- these two colors are called "bronzers" even though they are NOT. And the colors on the BB website are really "off." They're both very much pink, not bronze.

    I don't know how shimmery Orgasm is, but I've seen Tarte's Glisten compared to Orgasm on different blogs.  I have Glisten and it's really pretty and my favorite blush right now.  The shimmer isn't over the top, but it does have shimmer.
