Our vision on even the prettiest of models has developed to judge them on the smallest of imperfections. Celebrities should be offended when digital enhancers edit their profile to what they consider 'beautiful' and worthy of being displayed on the front covers of magazines. Several areas and techniques are used to transform the ordinary to extraordinary, the basics; red eye, blemishes and pimples, the style; hair colour, make up and clothing, and then the outrageous; silhouette, shape of face, and the increase or decrease in the size of their features.
An article found on the BBC website states that 36 year old actress Kate Winslet was not aware of her digitally enhanced images released onto men's magazine GQ as their front cover. Winslet, who is a more curvaceous figured women, approved of the original photos taken for the issue, but was not aware her figure would be airbrushed to supermodel perfection.
