While loads of celebs and social media stars have been found guilty of the dark art of photoshopping their pics, YouTuber Amanda Steele is taking a stand.
In a lengthy Twitter thread, the 18-year-old encouraged her followers to stop editing their pics like *certain* celebs do.
people edit themselves so much on Instagram it's sad that people can't just appreciate natural beauty

It is one thing for magazines/campaigns to photoshop photos but making your personal profile a unrealistic version of yourself is not fair!

there are so many girls out there wondering why they aren't that beautiful or skinny etc… you have no idea what you put these girls thru

I totally get skin smoothing and detailing to make a more flawless photo but I know soooo many people who literally reshape themselves

I'm talking about people with large followings that are literally INFLUENCERS. Everything you do INFLUENCES thousands of people

If you put yourself out there purposely creating a following, please use your power positively 🙁

So moral of the story. NEVER COMPARE YOURSELF TO PEOPLE ONLINE. Do not let it get you down. You are beautiful and the whole world knows it!
— Amanda Steele (@MakeupbyMandy24) July 27, 2017
I, myself as an influencer feel the pressure to perfect every photo and post I do because my page and likes don't add up to those who do…

She concluded the rant with:

“I love you. You’re beautiful. Screw the fake. Mic drop I’m out.”
WOW.
It is so damn refreshing to read about a star speaking out against unrealistic beauty norms.
If only other celebs would follow suit…
