5 TIMES MORE BEAUTIFUL WITH INSTAGRAM

The time of selfies is far from over. Not for a long time. Now, I'm not really a hero when it comes to taking selfies because if I do it, it has to be perfect. Ussies by the way, yes, because then I just let the attention go to the other person. So let me say “hallelujah” for the five apps below. Pimples are waved goodbye, a dull skin suddenly gets a sun-kissed glow and the hashtag #nomakeup will not appear so quickly anymore. Choose your the wrong filter then it comes across as if you've been partying for weeks on end, which certainly won't do your look any good. Dark circles under the eyes, wrong shadows. Oh, it's just wrong. So take the apps below to heart, and it will never go wrong again.

Black and White Filter
With a black and white filter, you obviously can't see what color your lipstick exactly is, but generally, it does a lot of good for your look. Especially with a classic look. With looks that have a smokey-eye or mascara-less gaze, it works a bit less because then the photo becomes flatter than flat. If you have a huge glamour look, then you choose a more retro filter, and if you're more into nudes, then you choose the 1977, which makes it even more angelic.

Mayfair
Mayfair makes a look just a bit warmer and gives just a bit more highlights and contours. Perfect for a no make-up day. With this app, you get just a bit more color in your face, making it a lot richer, as if you have bronzer on. If you do have make-up on, it might go the wrong way. So be careful.

Rise
Trouble with an impure skin? Then choose Rise. This gives a warm glow. The skin under the eyes will become bright and the skin becomes healthier and more radiant. If you wear little make-up, you need to be careful with this filter because it can also make your face very flat. Mascara, blush, and a good bronzer are therefore a necessity.

Amaro
If you need glamour choose Amaro. Dark circles and pimples are practically gone and your make-up gets a boost. Red lips become extra poppy and eyes often stand out even more. Works very well with smokey-eyes.

Nashville
This filter has a blue glow and works very well if you want to focus attention on your eyes. So if you've worked hard on a smokey, then this filter is your friend. Your skin looks healthy and your eyes pop like never before. If you have minimal eye make-up, you might want to choose Lo-fi.
