Fans Get #NakedForMonstaX To Celebrate Their Collaboration With Urban Decay
Last month, Starship Entertainment announced MONSTA X to be the new global brand ambassadors of Urban Decay Cosmetics. The collaboration was kick-started when MONSTA X appeared on the cover of Beauty+ Magazine for their February 2021 issue, the title “Naked Monsta X” intriguing fans.
The hashtag #NakedForMonstaX attracted the attention of many Twitter users but it simply alludes to Urban Decay’s signature Naked Eyeshadow Palette series and the Beauty+ cover story. The hashtag amassed over 56 thousand tweets, amongst which were some very confused ones!

Some looks were inspired by MONSTA X themselves, whether it was an album cover, an iconic makeup moment or even an inside joke.

This particular look matches Jooheon‘s in their “Fantasia” music video, all the way down to the matching gold accessories.
Top of the top, my level is A.

The reds and blacks that dominated the “Love Killa” music video really pop in this next look!

Monbebes are always the first to bring humor into any situation and this trend was no exception: this particular makeup look celebrated Shownu‘s first Among Us win against his members in a creative way!

Monbebes who simply wanted to support the project without sharing any makeup looks also took to the trend more jokingly.

Urban Decay has already hinted at further plans for their work with the group – perhaps a MONSTA X-inspired eyeshadow palette?
Keep your eyes peeled and make sure to pick up the February issue of Beauty + Magazine to see what Urban Decay products Monsta X used! What would you like to see if we did a UD x Monsta X Collab? 💜 💜 💜
