How I Fix Dull Selfies 🌈
I took this selfie on the Instagram camera but something felt missing. I noticed it was a little hazey and could use some pop of color! I’ll always edit my selfies before posting them even if it’s just to my story. You don’t realize how hazey your iPhone camera is until you take time to edit it.
