Woman's edited snaps show 'wild' reality of Instagram - as she says 'nobody's perfect'

A fitness influencer has shared a series of before and after pictures on Instagram to showcase the reality of people on the social media site that may seem "perfect" - and has been praised for her honesty. Holly Cockerill, the Liverpool Echo reports, regularly posts untouched photos of herself alongside heavily edited snaps that completely transform her hair, complexion, and even her facial expression to show people what they see on social media isn't always what it seems.

One recent post made by the fitness coach, from Blackburn, shows her posing with her boyfriend. While they both look stunning in the unedited version of the snap, the edited image beside it is a total transformation - with Holly's hair going from straight to perfectly curled and her lips and cheekbones getting more definition.
