The whole world went crazy about it, the "trend" started not so long ago and I already see it everywhere. Movies, photos, music clips, posters, paintings etc. WTF?
In 2017, if you are looking at a dark skinned person, there is 80% chance that he\she will be illuminated by a blue\cyan\aqua light from the left and by purple/pink/orchid light from the right. And it's SO fucking overused.
Can anyone explain why everyone's so crazy about it and WHY NOW EXACTLY? It seems like that moonlight poster has opened a fucking pandora's box. And now they're even starting using it on white people.

Also I'd say cool tones like these suit dark skin pretty well.
