- Can my friends guess which photos of me are real?
- Whoa!
- And which photos are edited?
- Is this for real, Mrs. Atta-booty?
- I'm stressed.
(upbeat music)
- Hi, I'm Selorm.
And this is my face, unedited, unfiltered.
Except for the make up I'm wearing,
which kind of defeats the purpose of this.
So I am someone who is very interested in social media
and the way the people use it to put their best face forward
or put a different face forward,
if you know what I mean.
Right now, I'm challenging my friends
and the people I know
to guess which photo of mine is Face tuned.
I'm someone who is literally terrified
of having a Photoshop fail.
Sometimes I see photos where it's like,
the waist looks like this and then the booty looks like this
and it's like that's not how bodies work.
I don't think photo editing apps are a bad thing,
but I think it always works
to be your true and authentic self.
But today, I'm gonna have to be a pro at editing my photos.
And see if I can trick my friends
into believing that a photo is unedited.
Okay, so all the photos have been edited,
I am sending them off.
Let's see how they do.
- My name is Freddie.
And I'm going to be guessing
which photos of Selorm's are edited.
I would say that I'm pretty familiar
with Selorm's face and feature.
She's stunning, like she's an actual model.
So I've studied them, trust me.
(laughs loud)
- A model, me?
No, stop, stop it.
- Hi, my name is Vivian.
I think I'm familiar enough towards Selorm's face.
We've kinda known each other through mutual friends
for over a year now.
- Hi, my name is Chelsea.
So far, I've met Selorm on Facetime, Google Hangouts, Zoom.
We've never actually met in person.
- Hey guys my name is Sean.
Her face I think is definitely recognizable.
However, the devil is in the details.
- All right, so let's start with the first one.
- Are those butterfly clip?
Yes, Selorm putting the fly in butterfly.
- I don't think this photo is edited at all.
It looks pretty straight from the iPhone.
I don't think photo number one is edited.
- I do see some shading around her arm.
Like there's kinda like some dark shading here,
And kinda around here, this part of her arm.
If she did edit anywhere, I would say it was this arm.
- The top looks a little fake.
If there's an option to change the color of the clothes
or to add the clothes on,
I think it is edited because that top looks a little fake.
- The lighting is hitting her forehead
and her cheeks so perfectly.
Maybe this photo is Photoshopped.
- Really getting her,
her face up in the cleave right now, please excuse me.
I'm gonna go with photo number two
is not Photoshopped at all.
- Wow, Selorm!
This doesn't look edited to me, at all.
I mean, I don't think I'm good at this.
I hope she's tricking us,
and the first two truly aren't edited.
- This is the type of photo
that people would normally edit the most.
Because you wanna look your best, super sexy,
you're in a swimsuit, you know?
I'm gonna look by the water,
because that will-
You know what?
I see, I think maybe by the water.
The area right in front of her belly button in the water
there's kind of a dip.
I feel like that dip doesn't make sense.
Maybe she tweaked her hip a little bit?
- Looking at the background,
the background doesn't look too edited as well.
- It just looks great, this photo.
And if this is edited, good for you girl,
you fooled me to be quite honest.
- She's giving a little, ey yo what, look.
Okay Selorm, her skin looks like her skin
like it doesn't jump out to me
as having been like over smoothed
or over manipulated from a Facetune app.
(laughs)
I'm stressed.
- If her arm that we're not seeing
was like totally in the photo and then Photoshopped,
I could be falling for that?
But my instincts are saying,
"No, this is o'natural."
I'm going to be really upset
if I fell for a trap on this one.
- Something about the way the edge,
the edge of the window frame is curved towards the bottom,
like the middle to the bottom, that looks suspicious.
That looks suspicious to me.
I'm going to say that this photo has been edited.
- Yeah, wait.
It's not, It's not, It's not.
- This one looks edited.
This one looks like she used Facetune.
The proportions look a little bit exaggerated.
But, yeah, I do think this ones is edited.
I think she edited her actual body on this one, maybe.
Selorm don't kill me if I'm wrong.
- I think there is some Photoshop here.
The thigh or the booty could've been Photoshopped
I don't know.
- I see some weirdness going on below her booty.
This is where there is like two women
who were just seated down,
they look like they're in conversation.
But something about the way
their heads are angled, looks suspicious.
- Looks a little unnatural.
I mean, looks great.
But there's something just tad bit off.
I feel like it's edited, yeah.
- Now it's time to see if you were correct
and you were actually able to identify
which ones were edited and which ones weren't.
All right what do you think of photo number one?
- This just looks pretty up and taken real
so I didn't think this one was Photoshopped.
- One or both of the arms,
maybe it could've been made like slimmer
like more at an angle?
I don't know they just look so good
I don't know.
- So to let you know the truth,
this one is edited.
- [Sean] Oh my god I can't even tell the difference.
- What, what did you do?
- [Selorm] I brought up my jawline to make my face smaller.
I made my nose a little bit slimmer.
- Wow, I would've never noticed that,
had you not said that.
- I see the nose difference here.
It's so slight but I guess that's what people do.
- Okay, well, yeah, I knew something was edited.
Okay, I see a little bit now your chin
like your chin is a little bit more angular
in the second photo.
- That's good.
See I couldn't tell,
I couldn't tell these small details,
now I might get all of them wrong.
- [Selorm] So photo number two me in a swimsuit.
- This one I think it's edited.
A swimsuit shot like it's gonna get some light touch ups.
- I thought it was unedited
so I might just go with my windshield response
whether or not it is or it isn't.
- [Selorm] This is unedited.
- The water was lying to me.
Trickery, sorcery.
- Yes.
There is the gorg', real you.
I could tell cause the lighting was so natural
and you look so confident
I'm just like this is giving me o'natural vibes.
- Okay, I'm going somewhere.
I got one, mom.
I got one.
- [Selorm] All right, so we can move on
to photo number three.
- Something must've been lightly pushed or pulled
just cause I'm like the door frame
does not look straight.
- There's not enough body parts or thing going on,
for there to have really been the opportunity to edit?
- This photo is edited.
In the original photo, I'm not wearing any make-up.
And in the other photo, I am.
- Damn, I failed.
Okay, you're so right though.
I don't think I would've gotten it anyway
but that is, yeah.
Your make up was very subtle.
So that was a good move on your part.
- You know what, if I actually zoomed it.
That's my bad, I didn't zoom in.
Cause if I zoomed in all the way,
then I could tell that these aren't necessarily real lashes.
- The fact that this is like so subtle
is really throwing me off.
Now that you pointed it out,
I see a very clear difference.
- I thought it was like real make-up
I mean, I'm not the best at make-up to be quite honest.
I thought it was real.
- [Selorm] All right, so number four.
- So I said this one was Face tuned,
cause it looks a little bit awk' proportion wise.
From the waist down it looks like, butt out.
And the top of your body looks small.
- There's a difference between this and then this.
And then you're doing it like a this kinda movement.
Well it looks really like, large and charged.
But also I'm like maybe that's just the editing.
- [Selorm] This photo is edited.
The booty is bigger.
(screams)
- Ow.
- Yes, I got it right again.
(chuckles)
- I wanted to be right about something today.
- Live your best life, you edit that booty.
Please teach me after and call me baby,
let's figure this out together.
- That is so crazy.
It this wasn't the exercise,
I would've just saw this on Instagram,
double tap and kept it moving.
- Looking at your hip and seeing that line,
that white line that's on your biker shorts,
I thought it was a little too curved?
- [Selorm] It just makes my butt look even smaller.
- Well, join the club.
- Do you feel like this changes your perspective
of Instagram and photos?
- I think I do need to look more closely
if I am trying to pick it out,
because a lot of stuff I didn't see, initially,
I have to zoom in more.
- I just think I might be looking out for that
a little bit more, maybe like just, zooming in.
Just, queen of zoom.
Just, this is what we do now.
- Photo editing apps like Facetune are fine,
I do prefer things to look as true to live as possible,
mainly because, you know we're all human,
we all have some flaws.
And I think sometimes it's important to showcase that
and to be as authentic as possible.
- But I mean either way, you know what?
You look stunning edited or unedited, so.
