The video is amazing to watch as her fingertips deftly smooth and brighten her skin and fill out her hair. The before and after is, like, <em>whoah\u2014<\/em>in a good way, because the changes look real.<\/p>\n<p>It's tempting to copy those techniques on your own feed, no? And there's no reason why you can't\u2014but proceed with caution. The results don't always look so realistic. While trying to take your selfie from an 8 to a 10, you could unintentionally create a big zero if you're not careful.<\/p>\n<p>As an avid IGer and sometimes overzealous photo editor myself, I found Howard Pinsky's<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>2. Alien Eye Sparkle<\/h2>\n<p>If you watched Hewitt's video, you probably noticed that she added some sparkle to her eye, but immediately realized it was too much and scaled it back. Take her lead and use this enhancement with much restraint, lest you give yourself an alien effect.<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gWU7B3K0Koc\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>3. De-focus Dysfunction<\/h2>\n<p>We all want our photos to look like we took them with a fancy DSLR that we know how to use. But using an app like <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/app\/big-lens\/id470460905?mt=8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BigLens<\/a>t to artificially blur your background can go very wrong. See my misguided attempt below, committed shortly after I downloaded the app (forgive me, I knew not what the heck I was doing!) Like me, you might blur edges that should\u00a0stay sharp, or overdo it to the point that your background becomes distracting and you look like you're floating in some kind of toxic fog. Unless you're a master with this technique, you're better off keeping the background crisp.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 658px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-version=\"4\">\n<div style=\"padding: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background: #F8F8F8; line-height: 0; margin-top: 40px; padding: 50% 0; text-align: center; width: 100%;\">\n<div style=\"background: url(data:image\/png; base64,ivborw0kggoaaaansuheugaaacwaaaascamaaaapwqozaaaagfbmveuiiii9pt0ehh4gib4hibkchbwchbwchbydr+jqaaaachrstlmaba4yhyqsm5jtamwaaadfsurbvdjl7zvbegmhcaqbaf\/\/42xcnbpaqakcm0ftumfaaibe81iqbjds3ls6zs3bipb9wed3yyxfpmhrft8sgyrcp1x8ueuxlmznwelfoycv6mhwwwmzdpekhlhlw7nwjqkhc4uizphavdza2jpzudsbzzinae2s6owh8xpmx8g7zzgkeopuoyhvgz1tbcxmkd3kwnvbu0gkhkx+izilf77iofhry1nyfnb\/lqpb79drwoyjva\/davg9b\/rlb4cc+nqgdz\/tvbbbnr6gbreqn\/nrmdgaqeej7whonozjf+y2i\/fzou\/qaaaaaelftksuqmcc); display: block; height: 44px; margin: 0 auto -44px; position: relative; top: -22px; width: 44px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"margin: 8px 0 0 0; padding: 0 4px;\"><a style=\"color: #000; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;\" href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/p\/v7OIp0mXwT\/\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Matching Thanksgiving prints! #cousins #happythanksgiving<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\">A photo posted by Kristen Philipkoski (@stylenik) on <time style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px;\" datetime=\"2014-11-28T01:41:15+00:00\">Nov 27, 2014 at 5:41pm PST<\/time><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async=\"\" defer=\"\" src=\"\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2>4.
