Why do people insist that blush wasn't a thing in 2016? Like when people do "2016 makeup," they often don't include blush for "historical accuracy." Blush was definitely popular back then.

It wasn't as popular as eyeshadow palettes or liquid lipsticks or highlighters, but we still wore blush in 2016. I remember the Tarte Amazonian Clay powder blushes being popular, as well as Nars Orgasm and the Milani baked blushes. I also remember the Hourglass blushes being popular.

Brands weren't constantly releasing cream and liquid blush, but even then, those products did exist. I remember Tarte had cream blushes in stick form back then. I had the shade "Exposed." People also hyped up the cream blushes from Stila.
