67 Wild Instagram Edits That Prove Some Folks Haven’t Seen A Real Human Face In Years (New Pics)

Instagram

If there’s one rule on the internet, it’s that you can’t blindly believe what you see on it. And this applies to more than just news headlines—it also includes random people’s profiles on social media.

The subreddit ‘Instagram vs. Reality’ is full of proof that some of us over-edit our pictures to the point where they start losing their connection to the actual world. Here’s a list of examples its members collected to remind us to scroll mindfully and keep a healthy dose of skepticism.

#1 Catfish Final Boss

#2 That's A Completely New Face

#3 Mua Before And After

#4 You Know, It Just Gets To A Point…

#5 What In The World

#6 Post vs. Tagged Video

#7 I Present To You The Final Boss

#8 Posted vs. Friend’s

#9 Don't Believe Everything You See

#10 An Embarrassment That Can’t Be Topped

#11 Photo Versus A Screenshot From A Video

#12 Hands Don’t Lie

#13 Wth Is Going On. How Is She Even Editing Like This

#14 Posted vs. Posted… I Guess She Didn’t Think It Was Noticeable

#15 10 Feet Tall Babes X

#16 Ok, I Can't Stop Laughing

#17 “Ummm... What Did You Do To My Face..?”

#18 This Is Wild

#19 Profile vs. Tagged

#20 Keep It Subtle

#21 Today On Left. A Few Months Ago On Right. She Identifies As A Woman So This Is No Hate Relating To Gender Identity

#22 She’s Writes Daily About How Natural Beauty Is The Best And Shames Other Women

#23 Heavy Photoshopping

A Finnish C.. Maybe D-list "celebrity". Was in the headlines years ago, now simply can not accept her aging (and weight gain).

#24 I Don't Even Understand What The Point Is

#25 South Korea Using Slimming & Muscle Filters On "Live" Television. So Cooked

#26 This Repeat Offender!!!

#27 Instagram Post Versus Live Stream

#28 Anyone Else Feel Like This Is A Form Of Dysphoria

I genuinely can’t tell if the people who post these genuinely believe they look the way they edit themselves to be. I have a family member who SWEARS she doesn’t edit their photos when it’s painfully obvious. The yell until they are purple in the face that they don’t edit their photos and I fear they genuinely don’t know what they look like….

It’s posts like this where you can literally see the outline of their body before the edits in a hazy shadow. It’s genuinely disturbing.

#49 Would You Say This Is Subtle Editing?

#50 Everyone In The Comments Is Saying They Wish They Looked Like Her And Wish They Could Afford Surgery

This looks like scary lordosis, the face has the classic filter effect, it's not often surgeries are THIS advanced (and successful), and idk I'm just disappointed people actually think this is real.
