Teenagers
around the world are taking a stand against the now-infamous Kylie
Jenner Lip Challenge, by celebrating their natural features as part of a
new social media campaign.
It
may have taken months for her to come clean, but it seems that
17-year-old Kylie’s confession that her infamous pout is indeed the work
of lip fillers has mercifully putting an end to the disturbing
#KylieJennerchallenge that saw teens attempt to mimic her swollen pout
by putting a cup, jar or shot glass over their mouths and sucking in the
air to create a vacuum. The results were disastrous and painful for
many who tried.
But
since 17-year-old Kylie's revelation, a new trend has begun sweeping
social media called #NoKylieJennerchallenge - and this latest trend
comes with a brilliant message.
Social
media users from diverse backgrounds are showing off their natural
assets with the hashtag, promoting body positivity and self-acceptance.
Both
men and women with big and little pouts are taking part in the positive
challenge, with one selfie poster writing: 'Don't forget, these are the
features they tried to teach you to hate.'
Another girl commented alongside her sefie: ‘Rock what ya got! [sic]’
Some
people taking part in the new campaign have noted how long it took them
to learn to love their natural pout, be it because they felt it was too
small – or too big.
‘It took me awhile but I now love my full lips that I got from my family [sic],’ one girl commented.
Other participants preferred to let the hashtag speak for itself.
And
while some people posed completely naturally, a few chose to put on a
pouty face, no doubt paying homage to the puffed-up lips that Kylie has
become famous for.
