So, blush under foundation. Are we really going there? It’s called ‘underblushing’ or some trendy nonsense like that. Let’s just slap some color on and then cover it up like that’s a normal thing to do. Who comes up with these ideas? Oh, sure, let’s make our skin glow from within like some otherworldly entity instead of just having a simple blush-on-top look. Makes total sense. Except it doesn’t.
Here’s the kicker—why am I supposed to care about looking like a glow stick? Is this what we’re doing now? Creating new steps in makeup routines, so we have to spend twice the time while pretending it’s all effortless? Maybe celebrities have all the time in the world to blend their faces into dewy oblivion, but the rest of us live in reality.
Fine, let’s see how long this lasts. I’m sure highlighting underneath everything will be the next breakthrough. Oh wait, that already exists. I can’t keep up.
And don’t even get me started on how the whole DIY thing makes you wonder why you bought that ninety-dollar foundation if you’re just going to hide your hard work. But hey, if playing hide and seek with your face is your thing, go for it. Whatever.
