As pretty much everyone knows, most pics of celebrities are airbrushed and photoshopped like crazy.
Lately, it seems like some celebs even request for the non retouched versions of some of their pictures to be released.
I found an article showing a variety of celebrity pictures without any retouching done to the pictures, or some just without makeup on as well. Here are some of the examples it shows.
Example- Kim Kardashian, with and without retouching
Taylor Swift with no makeup
Kate Middleton with too much airbrushing of her waist on a magazine cover
Britney Spears (Retouched on the left, natural on the right)
The moral of the story- Anyone can "look like a celebrity" when their pictures get retouched, including the celebrities themselves.
The article can be read here: Stars Without Retouching
I saw this article on yahoo and really liked it. I thought wow, if magazine looked more like this showing real pictures side by side with the airbrushed ones, or even if they stopped airbrushing...I just feel like it would be one small step in the right direction for women's and girls' self-esteem.
