#NOFILTERCHALLENGE l What "Instagram" makeup really looks like!

Description

Hey guys,
Show More Hey guys,
So I feel like in the past year we’ve been bombarded more than ever with filtered images on social media. So much so that we are forgetting what real skin actually looks like. I’m frequently on the Beautylish forums and it seems like daily there are threads being created by young girls (and boys) asking why they don’t look like their favorite social media influencer when they’ve purchased all the same products and follow all the steps in their tutorials. Hundreds of dollars are being wasted chasing this unachievable goal that photoshop and many filters has created. Reading those threads made me realize how big of a problem this has become and inspired me to make this video to show what these Instagram/Youtube “techniques” really look like without studio lights and the perfect angle. Skin has texture and pores. It has fine lines. It has complications. Makeup is not and never has been a miracle worker that can erase everything and we shouldn’t be embarrassed by that. I really hope that some of you will also take this challenge so that there can at least be some videos out there showing what these “Instagram Makeup” techniques really look like on unfiltered skin. :)
