A Perfect Lie in Photoshop
Society today seems to have an impossible standard for beauty; impossibly thin, impossibly perfect skin and they fill our lives with these impossible expectations on ourselves and others. God however doesn’t focus on the outward but want’s us to attract people with our actions.
1 Samuel 16:7 “The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
Proverbs 31:30 “Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting: but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.”
Magazines and TV have glorified beauty above all else and made millions of women feel invalid. It’s important to know that even the perfect aren’t perfect. As a graphic designer I know what “perfection” really looks like. It takes a lot of work to fix the skin defects of a model. Watch this video and see what goes into creating perfection even after, makeup, lighting and camera angles have been applied.
