While many women will be aware that the bodies we see on Instagram are unrealistic, that doesn't stop many from comparing themselves unfavourably to what is on our feeds.
This is exactly why the bikini designer and CEO of
Moana Bikini, Karina Irby, felt prompted to act.
The 27-year-old from Port Macquarie posted a comparison photograph of herself on
Instagram, in which she aimed to showcase the difference between a real and an edited photo.
She also detailed exactly what she did to her body - from smoothing to shrinking, lifting and more - in order to get the perfect 'Insta girl' snap.

'Let's play a game. It's called reality vs Instagram,' Ms Irby wrote - she said that every time she saw 'Insta girls' snaps, they were always attracting young girls' comments such as 'GOALS'
'Let's play a game. It's called reality vs Instagram,' she wrote. 'Every morning I wake up and scroll through my personal Instagram feed and spy "Insta girls" posting unrealistic images of themselves,' Ms Irby began her now-viral post.
'The girls I follow that portray these images have big followings, often with hundreds of thousands of young girls looking up to them as a role models.'
She continued by saying that often when she scrolls through Instagram, Ms Irby will find 'young girls tagging their friends "GOALS" and "OMG WHY DON'T I LOOK LIKE THIS'.
'The truth is these girls don't look like this. They look like you, like everyone,' she added.
