NO more NYX Taupe Blusher!!! Alternative?

I can't get hold of any NYX Taupe blusher, its been my ultimate beauty buy, as I have a very chubby, round face and this was great for kind of contouring - I don't think I was a pro at it but the colour was spot on - not orange and gave me cheekbones, almost and wasn't glittery.

Anyway I usually order from Amazon for around £7 - but imagine my shock when it said £25!!! and when I realised there wasn't any others available ANYWHERE & then i knew why the price was so high!!!

HELP!!! i don't and can't spend £25 on a blusher, just can't. ;(((

Anyone? If not could anyone recommend an alternative contouring powder/blush, I have a fair, freckly skin tone. I don't want orangey tones or glitter!

The only other taupe-y shade that I know of is the Kevyn Aucoin (not sure if I have spelt it right Blush)

It's pricey though at £35 but it is supposed to last for ages.

Make-up revolution have just brought out a contour palette for about £8 which has a few matte shades in. Have a look at that.

NYX Taupe is my holy grail contouring product BUT I recently bought their Wonder Stick in Light and have been using that instead. It's the same colour as Taupe but is a cream pencil so blends more seamlessly iyswim.

It cost me about £7 I think. On Ebay.

I can do swatches for you if it would help Smile .

Thank you for your replies!
I'd already been & got the sleek contouring kit from superdrug. It's not as great as the NYX but it's ok & will do for now!
