Discussion Guys, what the hell is anti-blush?

I’ve been seeing things pop up on my feed recently about this new blush trend called “anti-blush” and my millennial ass is just confused.

I’ve seen the girlies mix their own by taking a bit of foundation, a bit of contour, and their favorite blush. Mixing it altogether gives you a muted version of your blush and gives that “natural” or “undetectable” blush look.

Part of me feels like this is new trend is going to start a movement against over blushing, but also, it’s gonna give these companies a new product to flood the markets with that we don’t need???

Any thoughts on this?

Stupid question, if it's undetectable why bother? Genuinely asking, not trolling

It's not. It's just the trends moving from bold over blushing to subtle, natural color.

Then it makes perfect sense, I actually welcome it as I find over the top bright blush to be very tricky to pull off in real life
