Took this shot in The M&M Store along the Vegas strip. Editing apps used:
- iPhone: Cropping.
- InstaCollage: Side-by-side Before/After collage.
- Color Effects: B/W + Color photo highlights.
- Font Candy: Caption fonts on individual Before/After photos.
-
Perfect 365: Adding makeup, facial contour, blemish correction, skin
softening (some photo resolution lost with this app cuz I'm too cheap to
buy the paid version for this editing challenge).
Fun fact: My
mom thinks getting my freckles removed will solve all my beauty
problems. Freckles are never cute or endearing--they are considered
blemishes. Moles especially can be bearers of bad omens, depending on
their location. In Vietnamese superstition, they suggest a vice of
excess: a mole near your mouth means you are fond of your food and eat a
lot. A mole near your eye means you are destined for a life of woe as
you will cry a lot. I used to have a mole below my right eye. You can
see it in my childhood photos. Though I never asked him to, my dad took
me to a cosmetologist to get it removed. Somehow, I don't think photo
editing software for blemish removal would've cut it with my folks. I've
had a relatively happy life so far. Thanks, Dad?
