Botox has gone from something that only super-wealthy people did in secret to something that almost everyone thinks about at some point.
Loads of folks are getting what's called "baby Botox." It's basically the lite version of Botox, providing just a few touch-ups here and there to smooth out fine lines and maintain that youthful glow. Nothing too excessive.
It's popular because it can make people look amazing and not overly artificial or plastic. Folks can even move their eyebrows after getting it done!
The cruel reality is that although Botox is so much better now, the price tag isn't. And most people don't just save up and get it once — they keep getting treatments. For some of us, we just don't have the cash or motivation to get it.
So, what do you do if you don't want to look like your grandma just yet and don't have several thousand dollars to spare? Answer: Get Facetune. Seriously.
These days, selfie editing apps can smooth over wrinkles, iron out fine lines, and brush over blemishes in photos without making you look like you're wearing a weird Barbie mask.
Facetune features new technology that allows you to easily make these edits. The best part? If you overdo it, all you need to do is press the undo button! No over-injections or health risks, just a smooth face — every time.
Before Facetune:
After Facetune:
Here's what to do:
1) Select the photo you want to edit and open it in Factune.
2) In the bottom menu bar, select the first Retouch option.
3) If you want a subtle, natural change, use the magic wand feature to automatically edit your selfie. If you want a slightly more refined look, head to the Smooth option. Use your finger to swipe over any specific area you want to improve. If it's a difficult area to access (crows' feet, anyone?), zoom into the area for a more accurate touch.
4) Use the sliding bar to increase the intensity of the app's magic.
5) As another option, select the Smoother function. This will allow you to smooth over even the deepest lines.
Bonus: If your selfie was taken in bad lighting, some wrinkles can leave shadows and discoloration. To remove these, stay in the Retouch menu and select the Heal tool. Sweep your finger over the discolored area and watch as it magically disappears.
If you can't afford Botox or you're scared of needles, smoothing out your selfies is the next best option!
A few touch-ups can help you look like you — on a good day. And every day can be a good day!
