Stop Using The Filters!

Do you post pictures anymore without a filter? 40% of people say they don't, and that is concerning to the experts as it's leading to image expectations that may be hard to achieve. 2,000 people where polled and here are the results:

  • 20% say they won’t post photos on social media without editing them
  • 37% like their filtered face better than their real face
  • About a third (30%) admit that using filters has had a negative impact on their self-esteem
  • 38% say the reason they use filters so much is to improve their skin texture
  • And the worst part? Nearly a quarter (23%) of those surveyed say using filters has warped their perception of what they look like so much that it shocks them when they see unedited photos of their face.

Wanting to enhance your own appearance is a personal choice, but using filters on selfies doesn’t always get you more likes. In fact, a study from 2020 finds that using photo filters actually led to fewer likes compared to unfiltered images. Study authors say excessive use of filters and trying to only show your positive side makes people less interested in clicking like or commenting.
