25 Times Instagrammers Showed Off Their ‘Real’ Bodies And The Internet Admired Their ‘Honesty’
Stop living up to every beauty standard.
Instagram is known for perfect photos and videos, but then, it wouldn’t hurt to be reminded that not everything that’s seen on the platform is actually REAL. The sad reality is that overly edited photos have become so normal it’s now rare to see someone showing off their natural, unedited bodies on social media. Angles, lighting, filters, and a little Photoshop, among others, are now the trending recipes of a perfect Instagram pic, which of course, have a damaging effect on body image.
But thankfully, the mentioned above hasn’t prevented a few Influencers from flaunting all of their imperfections. Diving into the r/Instagramreality Subreddit, we’ve collated some samples of people, particularly women who have embraced and love their bodies with all their imperfections, while also showing how an Instagram influencer can look like a blob if the angle’s slightly wrong. This article remains a wake-up call for people who over Photoshop their pics just to meet society’s beauty standards. Have a look, enjoy.
