Una Healy has advised people not to use photoshop, as it can be a “slippery slope”.
Speaking to Louise McSharry on RTÉ 2fm, the singer was asked how she feels about the use of photoshop, and how it can be damaging on social media and in magazines.
Una said, “We’re all guilty of using filters… You know, who wouldn’t want to put out the best version of what they think is themselves. But it’s not really you is it, you know if you’re going to be taking off parts of your body and that.”

“It’s quite a dangerous thing,” she continued. “But we all kind of have moments where we try and fix it up to make it look perfect, but it never really is, and that’s not perfect.”
“So it is a slippery slope I guess. I think it’s best to not do it, to avoid it if you can.”
“I think a nice filter is fair enough. I actually think for any picture it’s all about finding nice lighting,” Una said.
The mother-of-two also gave Louise her best selfie “tip”, and said, “Always go to a window with natural light coming in on you. It’s all about the lighting.”
