When a girl pouts out her lips like the duckface but only pouts them out a little bit, more like a kissy face.
Either way it's still the duckface they're just trying to be sneaky and cute about it.
"Tumblr-girls" tend to do it a lot.

Guy: "Hey this girl looks hot, look at this selfie of her."
Friend: "Nah man she's doing a subtle duckface, that ain't cute."

Get the Subtle Duckface mug.When you hint at something and it’s easy to understand that you were hinting at it (or not if you’re smart and clever, but you really shouldn’t do that kind of thing because no ones smart anymore), but you technically didn’t say it
It can even be used with facial expressions as long as the person you’re being subtle to has at least 2 functioning brain cells and enough common sense to know not to drink something on a computer. If they don’t meet these qualifications, either their IQ is in the negatives or they’re an ignorant, obnoxious, stubborn asshole and the only person that can successfully talk to them is Trump. For example, if someone walks up to you and you make an annoyed face at them, they think you’re mad and walk away (unless it’s 1 of my friends. Unfortunately, I don’t know anyone who understands the concept of “go away” and they’ll just pester me until I tell them), but you technically didn’t say, “I’m mad so go away”. Also a thing literally no little sibling ever has understood until about 18.

Get the subtle mug.(verb) The act of weaving a bragging statement about something subtly into an image or statement (such as on a social media post) that doesn’t explicitly make a statement about the thing you’re bragging about or is completely unrelated, but it was very purposefully inserted. The content of the subtlebrag is often the real intent of the image/statement, with the image/statement possibly even being made in the first place as a way to brag about the thing while trying to make it seem innocuously about something else. Most commonly used as a way to brag about lifestyle choices and/or milestones such as being engaged, without the explicit attention-seeking nature that everyone now recognizes in humblebrags.
(noun) The statement/image/social media post created when one engages in the act of subtlebragging.
(adj.) A modifier of another term that indicates that the word has been deemed a subtlebrag (usually used in the form subtlebragg-y)
