'This is not OK'
actress Lili Reinhart has taken to social media to implore her fans to stay away from body retouching apps.
In an Instagram story shared on Sunday, Reinhart explained how she was searching for an app to resize her photos when she came across an app that lets users alter their appearance. After watching a demonstration video, the actress was horrified. “This is not okay,” she wrote. “This is why people develop eating disorders. This is why social media has become hazardous to our health. This is why people have unrealistic expectations of their bodies.
She continued, “I implore you: do not use these kinds of apps. If you photoshop your body, you are adding to this problem. This is how unrealistic standards of human bodies have been created – to the point where people alter their bodies surgically to achieve unattainable results. We are better than this. Looking skinnier on Instagram is not worth the detrimental psychological effects that these photoshopping apps have given our generation. Our bodies should not conform to ‘one size fits all.
This isn’t the first time Reinhart has spoken out about the importance of self-love. The actress has been a vocal advocate for body positivity since coming onto the scene. Most recently, she told, “Even today, I see myself in the mirror and think, this doesn’t look the way the world tells me it should. I don’t have a cinched, miniscule waist. I do have curves, I have cellulite, my arms aren’t stick thin. This is my body and we’re told that it should fit certain proportions.
namechecked Ashley Graham and Charli Howard in the interview as being “authentically themselves” by promoting “healthy, real body images” adding, “I think that is so refreshing and important. Our community values need to reflect that.”
