Nowadays, a plethora of applications exists to assist individuals in enhancing their photographs. Some people use them to enhance the colors or fix details, while others use them to change their appearance completely. The influence of social media has created a pressure for individuals to conform to specific appearance standards, and unfortunately, some individuals resort to extreme measures as a result. We found hilariously ridiculous edited Instagram photos that you won’t believe people posted.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Reflection Does Not Lie<\/h2>\n

A young woman aimed to showcase a dress she had tried on and posted a picture online. However, observant viewers noticed a significant disparity between her physical body and its reflection in the image. She forgot to take note that people would see her reflection.<\/p>\n

\"Her<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

She forgot to take note that people would see her reflection. She looked good in the dress in the unedited part, so we don’t know why she had to change it.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Why Clothes Look So Perfect On Instagram Models<\/h2>\n

Have you ever seen clothing in an advertisement, and then you go to try it on, and it looks completely different on you?<\/p>\n

\"Why<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Well, models usually have the clothing pinned onto them like this, so the garment fits them perfectly when it is photographed.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Something Happened To The Tennis Court<\/h2>\n

It’s difficult to understand why she considered this photo to be realistic, as it fails to convince anyone of its authenticity. The skewed lines on the tennis court and the unnatural appearance of the subject make it evident that the image is far from a natural depiction.<\/p>\n

\"Something<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

You can see all the lines on the tennis court are wonky, and no one naturally looks like this. We are sure she was beautiful before the editing.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

She Drew On A Fake Piercing<\/h2>\n

Have you ever been uncertain about whether a piercing would suit you? Well, this girl discovered the ideal solution to that dilemma.<\/p>\n

\"She<\/p>\n

idahopotatow<\/a><\/p>\n

She drew on a fake piercing with an app, and now she knows what she would look like with a lip stud.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A Study in Trigonometry<\/h2>\n

Her chin possesses such remarkable sharpness that it could serve as a cutting tool. It’s evident that this picture has undergone substantial editing to achieve an excessively angular appearance of her face.<\/p>\n

\"Her<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

No matter what face shape you have, you are beautiful and do not need to edit it into a triangle.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Is She A Light Bender?<\/h2>\n

She must possess extraordinary powers, as she seems capable of bending light rays. It appears that the conventional laws of physics cease to apply when it comes to Instagram posts.<\/p>\n

\"Is<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

She must have made an adjustment to her nose and didn’t realize that the ray of light wouldn’t look natural once it was bent.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You Move Too Fast And The Snapchat Filter Stops Working<\/h2>\n

Have you ever encountered a situation where you tried a Snapchat filter but moved too swiftly, causing it to vanish? Well, that’s precisely what happened to this woman.<\/p>\n

\"You<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

She looks unrecognizable compared to the unfiltered picture, and it is too edited.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What Happened To These People?<\/h2>\n

Although we lack knowledge of the couple’s original appearance prior to photo editing, it is safe to assume that the final result falls short of any potential improvement they might have achieved.<\/p>\n

\"What<\/p>\n

AlternativeSonGoku<\/a><\/p>\n

They look like they are cosplaying the corpse bride wearing matching Gucci with her husband. It is beyond fake.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Just a Bit Off Balance<\/h2>\n

In the realm of Instagram, this girl has gained a reputation for digitally enhancing her chest in her photos. However, in this particular post, she appears to have unintentionally neglected to edit one side, leading to an inconsistent appearance.<\/p>\n

\"One<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

The right side has been enlarged while the other side looks much smaller in comparison.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Pictures You Post Vs Pictures People Tag You In<\/h2>\n

Meet the boy who skyrocketed to online fame by licking a public toilet seat and dubbing it the “coronavirus challenge.” As fate would have it, he later tested positive for the virus, amplifying the controversy surrounding his reckless actions. He was interviewed on TV and people saw what he looks like without editing.<\/p>\n

\"Pictures<\/p>\n

ratboi213<\/a><\/p>\n

It is going to be hard for him to post these overly edited pictures now that everyone knows what he looks like without a filter.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Look At The Reflection In His Sunglasses<\/h2>\n

Upon observing the reflection in the sunglasses, it becomes apparent that it diverges from the surrounding elements depicted in this photograph. It is a reflection of someone taking a selfie in their car. This man must have photoshopped his head onto someone else’s body and pretended it was him. Regrettably, he neglected to ensure the thorough rectification of all the pertinent details.<\/p>\n

\"Look<\/p>\n

bblackwalker<\/a><\/p>\n

This man must have photoshopped his head onto someone else’s body and pretended it was him. He forgot to make sure all the details were fixed.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

One Tiny Hand, One Monster Hand<\/h2>\n

She must favor one of her arms because it looks much bigger and stronger than the other one. While it is evident that this was not the desired outcome for the photo, it appears that she had an additional aspiration of appearing slimmer, which resulted in the sacrifice of accurate portrayal of her arms.<\/p>\n

\"One<\/p>\n

crackc0kane<\/a><\/p>\n

We are sure this was not how she wanted the photo to look, but she also wanted to appear extra skinny, and her arms were sacrificed.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Someone Forgot About the Mirror<\/h2>\n

We are not sure if she edited the reflection or her actual body. In the reflection, it seems that she deliberately enhanced the size of her buttocks, although this alteration does not correspond to her actual physique. Nevertheless, she appears beautiful in both versions, raising the question of why she went to such great lengths to extensively edit the photo.<\/p>\n

\"Objects<\/p>\n

icryfishsaucetoo<\/a><\/p>\n

She looks beautiful either way, so why go through the trouble of editing it so much.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

That Cannot Be The Same Person<\/h2>\n

The left side showcases the photographs that this woman shared on Instagram, while on the right side, we have images of her as seen on television. She looks like two different people.<\/p>\n

\"That<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

A filter, smoothing, and good lighting can change your appearance drastically.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Those Are The Whitest Eyeballs<\/h2>\n

While it is well-known that makeup has the ability to significantly alter a person’s appearance, it is not the issue at hand in this scenario. The problem is that we have never seen an eyeball as white and bright as her edited picture.<\/p>\n

\"Those<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

It is almost blinding because of how bright it is. Also, your eyes naturally have visible veins, so what happened to hers?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Camera Adds 10 Pounds And Photoshop Takes Away 15<\/h2>\n

This girl possesses remarkable beauty and appears absolutely stunning in the unedited picture. However, she chose to share an excessively edited photo where she appears significantly thinner.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

People should be promoting confidence with your natural curves instead of feeling like everyone has to look a certain way.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Talk Bout Deception<\/h2>\n

Have you ever experienced the situation where you come across someone online, but when you meet them in person, they bear no resemblance to their photos? Well, one can only imagine the level of astonishment people must feel when they encounter this particular individual.<\/p>\n

\"Forget<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

We are not sure what he really looks like but it is bizarre and sending a bad message to his followers.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Where Do Her Organs Go?<\/h2>\n

The longer you scrutinize this, the more absurd it appears. It seems as if she is attempting the paper waist challenge, striving to make herself appear as small as humanly possible.\"Where<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

It is incredible how her pants are staying on if this is her natural body, but we think there was definitely some editing.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Seems Legit<\/h2>\n

Her butt is so big it bends space, time, and reality. The issue at hand is that shadows are always truthful, and the distorted wood served as a clear indication that the image had been edited.<\/p>\n

\"Seems<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

It is highly doubtful that anyone would have believed this to be genuine.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Someone Caught The Real Picture<\/h2>\n

When you share a picture that gives the impression of authenticity, only to have someone expose the reality by posting what you truly look like.<\/p>\n

\"Someone<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Someone did a great job editing her to look real, but she looks much different in reality.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Who Knew Cars Could Drive on Train Tracks?<\/h2>\n

The train tracks appear authentic, and it’s surprising to discover that snow can accumulate inside a car.<\/p>\n

\"Green<\/p>\n

imgur.com<\/a><\/p>\n

So many influencers will do whatever they can to get as many likes as possible on a photo. There are so many things that are obviously fake in this picture.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

They Are Apparently The Same Person<\/h2>\n

These two pictures are being presented as depicting the same individual, expecting people to believe it. The black and white photo looks like he photoshopped someone else’s face onto his body, and then photoshopped his body.<\/p>\n

\"They<\/p>\n

imgur.com<\/a><\/p>\n

While it’s plausible that this photograph could depict him from two decades ago, it is undoubtedly clear that the person in the picture is not the same individual in the present year.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Unlike Shakira, Her Hips Do Lie<\/h2>\n

Her proportions in this photo are impossible, and an unrealistic standard. The editing techniques used to create this image are indiscernible, but it is evidently fabricated. The credibility of today’s social media influencers is often questionable, and as a mother,<\/p>\n

\"Unlike<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

she should prioritize teaching her daughter about body positivity instead of promoting photoshop manipulation.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Photoshopping A Mugshot Is The New Trend<\/h2>\n

Have you ever heard of someone photoshopping their mugshot? It’s uncommon for individuals to publicly share their mugshots.<\/p>\n

\"Photoshopping<\/p>\n

iaimtomisbehave151<\/a><\/p>\n

However, it seems someone believed it was appropriate to enhance this photo by smoothing out the skin and brightening the eyes to improve its appearance.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What She Posted Vs. What The Photographer Posted<\/h2>\n

It can be quite uncomfortable when you share a photo and it appears one way, but when the photographer posts the same shot, you end up looking completely different.<\/p>\n

\"What<\/p>\n

DudeWheresMyCare<\/a><\/p>\n

In her photo, she changed her face so she doesn’t look like herself, but the other picture is still pretty even without the editing.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Why Color Your Hair When You Have a Color Filter?<\/h2>\n

This woman has faced criticism on social media for altering her hair through editing. In the left photo, she edited it to make it look like she has waves. In another photograph, she incorporated bangs and altered the color of her hair.<\/p>\n

\"Hair<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Don’t you wonder what her real hair looks like?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It’s The Real Ken Doll<\/h2>\n

This man shared a picture in which he only edited himself, resulting in an appearance that is far from natural. He added sparkle to his sleeve, whitened his teeth, and smoothed his face.<\/p>\n

\"It's<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

He looks more like a plastic doll than a real person now. It is kind of frightening.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“Remove All My Pores”<\/h2>\n

It seems that there is a prevailing belief that any form of texture on one’s face is undesirable and should be eliminated. The expectation is that no one should display visible pores or blemishes at any time.<\/p>\n

\"Remove All My Pores\"<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

In reality, no one has skin that is perfectly smooth because we all have pores and blemishes, and that is part of life.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

She Aged A Few Years In The Right Photo<\/h2>\n

The left picture is the one she posted on Facebook, so her friends on Facebook think she looks not a day over 40. In reality, she is 71 years old and should take pride in how great she looks in the unedited photo, considering her age.<\/p>\n

\"She<\/p>\n

Eki75<\/a><\/p>\n

The process of aging is something that happens to everyone, and it is not something that should be kept as a big secret.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It’s a Jenner; do We Really Need to Say Anything Here?<\/h2>\n

The Kardashian\/Jenner family is frequently criticized for editing their photos. In a recent post by Kylie Jenner, her fans noticed a slightly distorted door frame, drawing attention to potential photo manipulation.<\/p>\n

\"Something<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

People are like detectives when it comes to finding the editing fails with Jenner’s photos.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Animations Or Real People<\/h2>\n

Have you ever wondered what you’d resemble as a Barbie doll? Some individuals have edited their faces to such an extent that it appears as if they have superimposed Barbie’s features onto their own through Photoshop.<\/p>\n

\"Animations<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

They were probably gorgeous before they did all this editing, and now they look fake.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When Your Feet Are Bigger Than Your Waist<\/h2>\n

We have never met anyone who has bigger feet than their waist. After undergoing numerous edits, she no longer resembles a real person.<\/p>\n

\"When<\/p>\n

ladymental<\/a><\/p>\n

We are sure she looked perfectly normal before she made so many changes to the picture.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Facetuned To The Max<\/h2>\n

When you want to be a Bratz doll so bad that you edit all your photos to look like one. The excessive use of FaceTune and editing is evident in this case.<\/p>\n

\"Facetuned<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

She even changed the color of her eyes in the photos which make it look so unnatural.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Image Editing Has a Long History<\/h2>\n

It is hard to believe, but even in the 1500s, people were editing pictures of themselves In this particular instance, there was a portrait of Isabella De’ Medici that had endured for many centuries, and it underwent a restoration process. \"The<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

When the artists were restoring this painting, they realized someone had painted over the original to make her look more beautiful. The before photo is what it looked like when they painted over the original, and the after is revealing what she actually looked like before it was painted over.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Armpit Remover<\/h2>\n

This deodorant is so powerful, it appears to remove your armpits or any indication that you have an armpit!<\/p>\n

\"Armpit<\/p>\n

aceaxe1<\/a><\/p>\n

While we acknowledge that armpits may not be the most aesthetically pleasing body part, it’s important to remember that everyone has them, and they do not naturally appear as perfectly smooth as often depicted in edited photos.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Instagram Vs. Reality<\/h2>\n

Did somebody say catfish? This man shared a picture on Instagram where he utilized filters, skin smoothing, and eye-brightening effects.<\/p>\n

\"Instagram<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

When people saw him on TV they couldn’t believe he was the same person who posted on Instagram.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Something Is Wrong With Those Stairs<\/h2>\n

When you notice that the stairs in a picture have been stretched and distorted, it becomes evident that someone has manipulated their body through editing. In this particular photo, there are additional indicators that further suggest the presence of digital alterations.<\/p>\n

\"Something<\/p>\n

reddit.com<\/a><\/p>\n

We would like to remind everyone that there is no need to make yourself look like this because everyone is beautiful the way they are.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This Cannot be the Same Girl, But She Is!<\/h2>\n

Typically, when someone else posts a picture of you on Instagram, you have limited control over the editing process. This girl took the photo that someone posted of her and edited it to look much different.<\/p>\n

\"Tagged<\/p>\n

Ilikeualottt<\/a><\/p>\n

She gave herself a smaller waist, larger eyes, and a thinner face. She doesn’t even look like herself anymore.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It Looks More Like A Painting Than Real Life<\/h2>\n

This picture looks more animated than real. She has smoothed out her skin so much that it looks computer-generated. At this stage, it’s increasingly difficult for people to believe that individuals truly look like the heavily edited images presented. It is becoming more favorable to embrace authenticity and share unedited photos instead.<\/p>\n

\"It<\/p>\n

S_Madzharov<\/a><\/p>\n

At this point, no one is going to believe people look like this, and it is better to be real and post unedited photos.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Queen Of The Catfish<\/h2>\n

This woman is the queen of editing her pictures to make herself look like a different person. She transformed from being a soccer mom to appearing as her daughter’s college mate.<\/p>\n

\"Queen<\/p>\n
