Taking a look at an Instagram feed, you’ll notice that there are a lot of perfect images. However, it’s no longer surprising that things aren’t always as they seem. Anyone’s appearance can be dramatically altered by the right posture, lighting, and even a filter. These images have fueled unrealistic beauty ideals and can make someone feel self-conscious about their appearance. The subreddit “Instagramreality” posts side-by-side images of an edited picture vs the original version in an effort to keep the battle for body positivity going and raise awareness about social media’s deceitful existence.
Stretch marks, rugged noses, belly rolls, and even cellulite are shown in the actual versions. It’s best to go at your own speed because there is no such thing as a flawless daily life. Many people are currently dealing with serious body image problems, and we don’t want that to continue. That’s why we gathered some surprising images from the community, and they’re sure to leave you speechless. Keep an eye on what you’re looking at!
