Let’s take a selfie!
This sentence has become a huge part of our social life. “Is your selfie game strong?” is what everyone wants to know.
One of the most popular trends in social networking is taking and posting selfies. While many criticize the trend by dubbing it narcissistic and wasteful, I think it’s a great way to express yourself. Selfies allow us to define ourselves to the world, instead of letting other people decide who and what we are. I do have reservations about have my feed filled with it though, but that’s just my personal preference.
Some of you may be shy about posting selfies. But the good thing about selfie culture is that you have complete control over how you present yourself. You can make use of these top android apps to take some amazing pictures of yourself and show your best side to the world.
1. YouCam Perfect – Selfie Camera
This app lets you edit out any and all blemishes, wrinkles, and other marks from the photo that you might feel too self-conscious about. Selfies are all about how you project yourself in the world, so if you want to feel confident about yourself, this is the perfect app for you. With many options to edit any selfie, it makes for a perfect package.
2. Retrica
Many people like their selfies to look special and unique. If you’re one of those people, Retrica is the app for you. It has many photo effects to render a vintage/retro effect to your selfies that make them look outstanding. With the photo burst option, you can also take multiple photos at once and tell a story through those.
3. Selfie Studio
This is a fun and simple app that’s great for you if you’ve just begun to explore all that selfies have to offer. It lets you customize your phone to assist in the process of taking selfies while also giving you the option of choosing from many different filters to beautify them.
4. Frontback
Selfies aren’t just about posting pretty pictures of yourself. They can also become a way of sharing your life with your friends, family, and the world. You can show the world where you are, what you’re doing, and what makes you happy. Frontback combines two pictures together – one that’s taken with the front-facing camera and another with the rear camera – to form one story.
5. Snapchat
Everyone is aware of this great way of keeping your loved ones apprised of what’s happening in your life is through Snapchat, where you can send pictures or short videos of yourself directly to someone or share them as ‘stories’ which your friends can see if they choose to. Snapchat filters, which have become very popular in the last couple of years, make the app particularly appealing to us.
Final Thoughts
Selfies just aren’t about looking pretty and constantly taking pictures about yourself. They are about creating memories for yourself and choosing to cherish it alone or share it with the world.
You do not have to ask a stranger to click your picture when you are out and about on your own; selfies help you be your own photographers on your solo trips and also let you capture random moments anytime.
