A [design challenge](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iconic-spaces) is great way for brands to engage with their fans, and the [Nivea](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nivea-proud-in-your-skin) 'Kiss of Style' Contest fits the bill in this regard. The recently launched campaign asks [Facebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manmades-the-boxer-brief) fans to create their own fashionable and stylish lipstick cap design for the Nivea Care Lip line using a design app on Facebook.

From the submissions, Nivea will pick 10 finalists, and fans can vote for their favorite finalist on Facebook. The winning cap will then be created in a limited-edition production run and sold across stores in America in early 2013, says Popsop. What's more, the brand has enlisted the help of designer Charlotte Ronson, who has created a Nivea cap design of her own that features a blue and white pattern with a Scandinavian theme, to be one of the celebrity judges for the Nivea 'Kiss of Style' Contest.
