Blushing usually affects which part of the body?
Blushing is the reddening of a person's face due to psychological reasons. It is normally involuntary and triggered by emotional stress associated with passion, embarrassment, shyness, fear, anger, or romantic stimulation.
Severe blushing is common in people who have social anxiety in which the person experiences extreme and persistent anxiety in social and performance situations.
A blush is a reddening of the cheeks and forehead brought about by increased capillary blood flow in the skin. It can also extend to the ears, neck and upper chest, an area termed the 'blush region'.

Makeup 💄(blush) often simulates "blushing", particularly cheek color, but it can be added to different parts of the face. Now you can get color added to your lips 💋 called "blush" (a body modification).

David Stokes,
According to the Smithsonian, certain birds blush as well.
A diverse set of avian species from vultures to crested caracaras have been known to go red in the face, and parrot owners often attest to the phenomenon in their pets.

Veronica Luby-Hoey, Actually, any skin exposed to the open air will blush if a person is embarrassed, so think twice about doing any streaking, a spotlight from neighbors or police will redden your face, toes, and everything in between!
