Showing natural flaws
Unairbrushed describes an image that hasn't been digitally altered to remove flaws or enhance appearance.
The term emerged as airbrushing became standard in advertising and celebrity photography: The magazine ran unairbrushed photos of the model.
It often carries connotations of authenticity or honesty about physical imperfection: She posted an unairbrushed selfie showing her acne scars.
