On 26/5, the keyword phrase "Luu Thi Thi is hot and red-faced, but people are asking what blush she uses" topped Weibo's trending topics. This incident began with photos and videos of the actress attending an outdoor event in Vietnam last weekend. In the videos, her staff continuously wiped away sweat while she stood under the sun, yet her makeup did not smudge, and her face remained shine-free. Thousands of fans were curious about the cosmetics she used to maintain her elegant image under the intense sun.
On the Red Note platform, one account received over 14,000 likes for responding: "Luu Thi Thi is hot and red-faced, but people are asking what blush she uses." Other fans humorously commented: "Just sunbathe for 30 minutes, and you will be as rosy as her," and "This blush trend only works on 40 degrees Celsius days."
