Can you imagine a virtual world without instagram filters? Well, this is what a model concerned about its effects on our self-esteem is looking for.
Technological advances in digital photography and social media make taking perfect photos easier for anyone today than at any other time in history.
What’s wrong with this? Model and make-up artist Sasha Pallari believes that it is negative for women, especially for younger women, as it reinforces unattainable stereotypes of beauty.
This is the campaign against Instagram filters
Is named #filterdrop (leave the filters) and seeks to get the public used to seeing real and natural skin in the images of social networks. Therefore, this girl compares natural photos with the leaked ones and publishes them on her Instagram account.
“I just thought, ‘Does anyone realize how dangerous this is? I don’t want kids to grow up thinking they’re not good enough because of what they see on social media.»
Sasha declared to BBC.
Although it seems paradoxical, thousands of people felt identified in the same social network that provides these filters and began to replicate the idea, making the numeral go viral.
And it is that these filters not only beautify the photographs, but can dramatically modify the face of a person to the point of generating the feeling that without them it looks horrible.
