First of all, Chara is a second identity. The first human is known by the name chosen by the player, even to Asgore and Asriel.

Chara may be a female name in the greek culture, but in others it seems to have no meaning. I did a quick search, and Chara is also the (probably family) name of a male hockey player, and even a type of algae.

It can also be short for character and charade, as theorized on this wiki (sorry if I have left something else out), or have no meaning at all.

Blushing is the physical reaction to anxiety, and a child of any gender, who hates humanity, poisons themself for any reason, may feel betrayed by their friend, and has an unresolved conflict, may feel a little stressed. It may also be a reaction to romantic feelings, and if my theory that the ACT options are offered by the Chara/ the first human, then it is safe to assume they probably have some weird love interests. It can also be a symptom of fever.

What I won't believe, is that Chara uses cosmetics in a world where human products are definitely scarce.
