Photoshopping Glamour

The G!rlPower website demos the step by step retouching of a magazine cover, from the eyes, hair, nose, lips, teeth, breasts, etc. Their mission:
The media world is becoming increasingly fixated on appearances. And the number of tricks used to achieve the increasingly exaggerated ideals is growing. Many models have plastic surgery and even more are retouched so they appear to have bigger breasts, smaller stomachs or fuller lips.

We wanted to show how easy it is to change someone’s appearance in this campaign.
Personally, the original photo looks hotter (right of your screen), while the retouched photo looks fake. Flaws make the diamond real.
