Two modes for this word. Mode 1: You're an artist or designer and you magpapula the logo to make it pop. Mode 2: Your crush just looked at you for 0.5 seconds, and now your cheeks are doing the magpapula on their own. It's the body's natural reaction to 'kilig' or extreme 'hiya'.
From `magpa-` (causative prefix) + `pula` (red).
Can refer to literal coloring or the physiological act of blushing.
