Selfie trend has taken over social media, and it somehow ­propels everyone to look photo-ready all of the time. But a latest research shows that 68% women feel ­negative about photos of themselves that haven’t been enhanced by a ­photographic filter.

A research conducted by a cosmetic giant says that a majority of women confess to feeling exposed, under-confident and unattractive before a filter is applied.

Women say that the most important change a filter makes to a selfie is to hide flaws and wrinkles, or that it helps achieve a better skin tone. So nearly half the female population now uses filters on their selfies and this rises sharply to 67% among girls under 25 years of age.

“The no-filter trend ­perfectly sums up this ­summer’s minimal makeup look. It’s about ‘come as you are’ informality and being the best possible ­version of yourself but without ­looking like you’ve tried,” says UK-based ­celebrity makeup artist, Florrie White.

To help ensure you’re looking your best for your selfie, professional makeup artist, Sarah Jagger, reveals her top tips and makeup essentials so you can ­capture a flawless look ­whatever the occasion.
