I was embarrassed and I looked around for somewhere to hide, but there was nowhere to go .

Being embarrassed can make someone’s face flush, or turn red. “My face flushed bright red” adds a clear physical sign of the embarrassment in the sentence. “My face was bright red” describes the color but does not show the change as naturally, and “I was about to cry” suggests sadness rather than embarrassment.
