The UnNude Lip Challenge

Unnude_2.jpg

If you're on BeautyTalk, you're probably well-aware of the nude lip trend and may even own a handful (or three) of these shades. While I love the trend, I still can't seem to find my "perfect nude" so I am very excited to start talking more broadly about UnNudes! UnNude lip shades offer a spectrum from standard nude shades to more bold, neutral shades. These are the mauvy brown, deep chocolate, rose-goldy-earth toned neutral shades and they come in a variety of finishes (matte, metallic, creamy and shiny). 

 

Here's the challenge: rock an UnNude lip look between Monday, February 6th- Tuesday, February 28th. No requirement on how often to post but I'm going to try for every weekday! 

 

Keep in mind, this challenge overlaps Valentine's Day so I am also challenging you to change it up by wearing a bold neutral instead of the typical red. (Hint: red is not an UnNude!)

 

Check the spoiler for examples of some of UnNude shades. Can't wait to see your take on neutral lips!

EDIT: I have changed the timing. This challenge will run through the end of February so keep the UnNude looks coming! 

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

This may seem like a regular nude as opposed to an "un nude" but this is definitely an unnude to me lol!  Retsina by Bite!

 

edit: i guess unnudes include regular nudes so that works too! I feel im not making sense but its ok, its friday. Wineday!

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

@sabrinas - This makes sense to me!  I've been wearing nudes and unnudes too.  I kind of figure a nude is a nude.  Actually, if you think about it, shouldn't an unnude be the opposite of a nude, like red, berry, purple, anything with color?  The "un" makes it "not."  So it's "not a nude."  Just a thought...

@fatimamummy - You look awesome!

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

Thank you @Titian06 

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

@fatimamummy,

 I just came on this thread to tell you how beautiful you look!  I also love this blue on you!  I hope you and the kids had a good time at the movies! 🙂

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

@fatimamummy

I totally agree. You are a striking woman and this lip colour looks great on you. Your features are so beautiful and I am just totally in love with your hijab! 

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

You ladies are so sweet 😊 Thank you @EvangelineDamon I'll take it as a compliment.

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

Thank you @tsavorite You are too kind. We had great time although I am not a fan of Lego movies.

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

My mom took my son to the new Lego movie, and afterward she said to me "Trust me — I just did you a big favour!" I take it it wasn't extremely adult-friendly. 

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

It was exactly like all other Lego movies, full of noise and destruction @Beadshopgirl I don't like the general kill or die concept of these movies.

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

Maybelline Untainted spice..then for a grungy feel I topped the same lipstick with UD Smog Eyeshadow in the middle and UD toasted eyeshadow on the outer corners for dimension. Surprisingly by some miracle both lip pics came out in the same angle..That never happens lol.

 

One thing I learnt from this challenge - I definitely need to invest in some lip liners and a better lip balm 😁

This is WAAAAY out of my comfort zone and many shades lighter than my natural lip color. I don't think i washes me out as badly as some other nudes I've tried though! I definitely feel comfortable enough to wear this out. It's a very beigey nude upon inital application, but shows some pink after it dries. Speaking of drying .. it feels pretty darn drying, but looks okay imo.

I normally wear dark reds, vampy purples, or lip balm so everything light looks strange to my eyes. I've been actively trying to find a good light-nude to counter my naturally dark lips though.

Shoutout to @AnneMCC for being an amazing person to trade with. This is not something I would normally purchase for myself, but was curious about. V happy to have it! 🙂

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

@whitepolkydots that color looks so nice on you! it doesn't wash you out at all 🙂

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

thanks @unfungirl! it's still very weird to see "no lips" on my face when i pass by a mirror but it's starting to grow on me 

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

i feel the same way when i wear paler colors @whitepolkydots but i love them with a bold eye look!

Re: The UnNude Lip Challenge

UD Vice 1993. At first, I didn't know if I would like this and thought it would be too brown, but it pulls mauve on me. And I do like it quite a bit! This formula is really nice too.
