If I conceal a zit or blackhead with concealer, it's virtually invisible because it blends in with my skin. You (hopefully) don't see the zit, and that's about the extent of it. Beyond that, the only invisible makeup that I can think of would be clear lipgloss or mascara, light powder or foundation. I almost always wear Carmex or something similar on my lips, because it's hard to sing with dry lips. Also, I've worn concealer or light foundation on my chin since I was a teenager. My chin is a different shade from the rest of my face, and I'm self-conscious about it. It was particularly obvious when I was pregnant for some reason. I always use something on it.
I think the purpose is to not look greasy under lights, to smooth out the complexion or cover imperfections. I guess the platform rule would be to allow that small concession without allowing full face, cake or colorful makeup. "No makeup unless it looks natural" has been our platform rule for years. So far, no one's stepped out looking like a strumpet, so I guess it's working alright.
