The background-blend-mode CSS property describes how the element's background images should blend with each other and the element's background color.
/* One value */ background-blend-mode: normal; /* Two values, one per background */ background-blend-mode: darken, luminosity; /* Global values */ background-blend-mode: initial; background-blend-mode: inherit; background-blend-mode: unset;
Blending modes should be defined in the same order as the background-image CSS property. If the blending modes' and background images' list lengths are not equal, it will be repeated and/or truncated until lengths match.
