As Instagram culture and the internet become ever more pervasive in modern society, users across the net are using programs like Photoshop and Facetune to \u201cfine tune\u201d their appearance. While many social media celebrities have been accused of abusing such software in the past, one major personality is lashing out at haters bashing her for doing so. An Instagram account tagged YouTuber-turned-model Nikita Dragun in a post that featured three side-by-side images of the star, with the middle photo being allegedly Facetuned to look picture perfect by shrinking her waist. \u201cShe has a great body,\u201d the caption read. \u201cWhy would she make herself look like an alien?\u201d The text was followed by a slew of hashtags, such as \u201c#fake,\u201d \u201cphotoshopped,\u201d and even \u201c#kyliejenner.\u201d Nikita took notice of the post and wasn\u2019t going to take the shade sitting down, creating a hilarious clapback to the dig by putting some extreme Facetune filters on her \u201cunedited\u201d photos. To match the poster\u2019s insult of \u201calien,\u201d Nikita shrunk her waist in both side by side photos to the extreme, writing, \u201cI love when these accounts try to expose me\u2026 Like you\u2019re new here, I\u2019m sponsored by Facetune at this point.\u201d The YouTuber\u2019s humorous comeback follows her soul-baring post nearly a month prior, where she faced her \u201cinsecurities\u201d by posting a selfie with no makeup, \u201czits and all.\u201d \u201cI once said my biggest fear would be to post a pic without makeup or editing,\u201d she wrote of the photo. \u201cI finally realized how crazy that sounded,so here I am, zits and all.\u201d https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B4s9ukBFvYo\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Nikita isn\u2019t the only YouTuber to have been slammed for Facetuning her pictures as of late, either: Tana Mongeau was likewise hit with a wave of backlash for heavily editing one of her photos at the People\u2019s Choice Awards, with fans expressing disappointment that she\u2019d changed her appearance so drastically. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B4voFdiBkoO\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link For now, it looks like both internet stars are owning their Facetuned photos \u2013 and even learning to accept their \u201cflaws,\u201d in the process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nikita Dragun drags critics accusing her of using too much Facetune YouTube star and model Nikita Dragun is known for her glamorous looks and jaw-dropping Instagram pics \u2013 but some critics are accusing her of abusing photo editing app Facetune to achieve her looks.
