Is Photoshop the new pancake for women all over the world?

Can you always tell when a woman photoshops her pictures? Well I have come across pictures of the same person with and without editing and there was a lot of difference.

Photoshop has been around for ages, thats why we real girls/women have always felt insecure compared to these Celebs but now we have paparazzis and they catch these celebs without all their falseities and they just look like regular women or even worse.

But even regular women are buying the photoshop thing now. Have you checked some pictures on facebook or even profile pictures on NL?

They want to look better than they do in real life

Photoshopped pics are easy to know

Ok, is it what women are doing.

why would you photoshop you photos when you know you do not look
like that people women especially will go to any length to impress people.

I know what you mean hun, thats why internet dating is trickey, i.e you see a beauty on his or her profile but meet a catastrophe in real life

Why the long face hun?

some people over do it,apart from having their faces as smooth as a babies a s s they also photoshop their bodies to have a better shape,very uncalled for.

Lol, it's their life, their picture.

It's obvious some people don't know them or certain people wouldn't be getting all the praises, especially celebrities. We know they are fake, yet we insist on admiring them.

Reason why I love Nollywood stars. They hardly photoshop.

Mich!! you could have told me this instead of making a thread?

Ahahahahha! Sorry ooooo!!!!

Anyways Plat, that is not the point. We are talking of girls who photoshop ALL their pictures.

Having fun occasionally doesn't make you guilty since you are not afraid to post your unedited pictures.

hahaha
i never photoshop, i dont even know how that shizz works.
im not into all those things anyway.
what you see is what you get (with me) no weave, makeup, flashy clothes, flashy backrounds (all of which enhance pictures)
im as real as it gets, baby.

Models and folks in the movie industry have been photoshopping their glamor pics for years so what's the big deal ?

oh ok I was just going to say I was having fun . .

but women who Shop ALL their picz might have  severe insecurity about their looks
but us as women we dont help those that are sturggling
instead of helping, we insist on tearing down others, and what irks me is that the main ones tearing down others are the ones that  NEED their pics Photoshopped!!!

Women always will try hard  to achieve that false sense of beauty.
Its a fact.

I remember when I saw Mariah Carey in the movie Precious. I couldnt believe my eyes on how different she looked. The amount of makeup she uses and the effect of photoshop is all the same in my opinon.

What about the time I saw Amerie in a movie? She was short (maybe because Katie Holmes is tall) and so ordinary.

I kept saying to myself "I have seen this girl" but I couldn't figure out where.

flashy backgrounds? wetin?
There is a BIG DIFFERENCE between an  EDITORIAL pic and a pic that is straight photoshopped.
I hope you know.



@topesis -

But I maintain facial features make people beautiful. I know a girl who suffers from a severe form of acne/pimples, but when you see her, you can tell she is beautiful. Imagine if such a girl didn't have that skin problem, she'd be a goddess.

lol
its funny how some people see all these glamourized pics that are photoshopped and then when guys see it they start drooling and expect the average girl to live up to that "photshopped" beauty.
KAI!!
have you seen some of these celebs without makeup.
kim kardashian for example is so average in the face without all that cake crap.

you dont get what i mean.
like someone can have a pic of them at a party and it somehow enhances the pic (to me) or a flashy outfit ect ect
to me, all those elements enhance a picture and make people look better than they do.

Excatly
U'd see guys lookin beyonce n halle and they think they are goddess, forgetting that they are wearing heavy make-up, the camera can even make them look slimmer. A good example was the one plat said abt mariah carey in the movie precious. She looked like a Pig.

I would.
Acne might distract but it never takes away. Do you know her well enough to suggest a better skin regimen?

I swear that ACNE is a sob
I have a friend that is very insecure because she has them, she has totally lost her confident

Acne can't take away your beauty if you have nice features.

but you know those do enhance pictures, im just saying.

M. Carey

acne is a confidence killer
