Social media has given society a very unrealistic concept of what bodies look like.
Not that this is anything new. Advertising, movies, TV, and music videos have been shoving this down our throats for decades.
But social media has taken it up a notch as people show off their seemingly “perfect” lives and bodies for everyone to fawn over.
These ladies, however, have decided to teach everyone a valuable lesson by showing people what real bodies and real people look like. Let us begin…
1. Skin has texture.
One of my favorite comedians posted this on Instagram and it really meant a lot to me. Skin has texture!!!

She posts both traditionally “flattering” and “unflattering” pictures to show people that everyone has both moments (she also shows her pores *gasp*)

With most people in the beauty influencer industry posting images photoshopped to hell, seeing an artist stop editing her skin and body makes me SO happy
