Why I Use Filters

article image placeholderUploaded by @belle
We need more people to accept that their bodies and faces are good as they are. But if some of us find happiness in using filters, I don't see where the problem is. We should just make sure that the filters aren't so unrealistic that the real person and the person in the picture are two different people. For me, I only use filters with different colors, like black and white, or with a brownish tinge something to enhance my beauty but not change the way I look

Filters are us.

Yeah, filters are an expression of one's inner self. And yes, there is controversy over a person trying to, to make themselves look like something. Perhaps they're not. But when we talk about the concepts of self, how are we so certain we are who we say we are? So filters in some way gets us on the path of being able to answer that question or being able to question the answers that we think we already have

And thank you so much for sharing this opinion because I know most of the people out there talk about body positivity and how we should love the way we are, but they don't understand how some things can make us feel a little more confident and we are happy with it. So why shame us for it, right? Thank you so much for sharing this opinion. I would love to hear more podcast related it to this in the future and yeah, thank you. Bye

I couldn't agree more to what you said. Although I do love makeup and filters, I equally love myself. Completely natural. I do realize the extent to which some of the filters modify our appearance. Some of them, however, are minimal and fun to use, especially when you are too lazy to do anything

At the end of the day, what we are looking for is a little positivity. And at the end of the day, what exactly happens is the people who judge you for putting on filters are the same people who will tell you why is your skin looking so grainy or why does it look so dry or flaky or why does it have so many spots on it when you don't put on filter? So, yeah, I think just to be very polite F people and move on

But if we don't know how to apply makeup, then I think we should go more for the natural look. And the rest of it can be helped with the use of filters. As I said
