Well, there haven't been any that are not glowy and frosty, because that is basically the point of them. Mineralize Skinfinishes were created to give a subtle or dramatic (depending on what one desires) highlight and glow to the skin. Removing the frosty metallic features of the product would take away the trademarks of the product.
If you want a more matte finish, I suggest you look into the Beauty Powders in the Raquel Weltch collection. They are both still available online, and if you're lucky, still available at your local counter. These Beauty Powders (as opposed to for example, the Barbie Beauty Powders) are not metallic or frosty, and have a much flatter finish. Also, you may want to look at the permanent and limited edition blushes to see if you find any cheek/face colors for the look you desire. Hope that helps!
Also available are the Mineralize Skinfinish Naturals which are made of minerals like the Mineralize Skinfinishes, but of more natural colors, and matte. These are intended to be used as regular face powders, and makeup setting powder. They have a low coverage, so they can be used as a light foundation as well.
