Raise your hand if you’ve ever seen your favorite celeb on the cover of a magazine and found yourself in awe over their flawlessness? Raise your hand if you’ve never really realized that photo was probably meticulously retouched for hours on end. Trust me; no one looks that perfect in person.

Case in point: Brittany Murphy. This photo was professionally retouched by iWANEX Studio for a commercial magazine.

See the difference? She miraculously has blonder hair, lighter skin, smoother skin, whiter teeth, browner eyes, smaller eyes, a smaller nose, pinker cheeks… I could go on and on and on!

On the contrary, it’s pertinent to give credit where credit is due. iWANEX Studio does an amazing job. They’ve worked on photos of Beyoncé, Cameron Diaz, Penelope Cruz, Eva Longoria, Halle Berry, and many more. Oh, and it’s not only girls – they’ve even cleaned up Justin Timberlake! See for yourself – visit the site, click on portfolio, click on a celebrity photo and run your mouse cursor across it toggle between the before and after photo.

My point is this: DON’T BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU SEE. That’s all!

BTW GLAMonistas, here’s a real treat. Watch this plus-sized model be whittled down to a size 2 from a size 20. Oh, the beauty of Photoshop.
