06 Oct Woman Has Started An Instagram Sensation By “Chinning” All Around The World

Like pretty much every other person around the world, I am obsessed with Instagram. I have eschewed indulging in other popular apps such as Snapchat,  because I crave that instant gratification after uploading a photo! Showcasing off my life, raking in the likes, and most importantly, selecting the best hashtags that will guarantee me more followers. I completely recognize how silly it is, but I can’t help take it all so seriously.

The thing with photo-sharing apps that constantly encourage you to narcissistically present pictures of your “amazing” life, is that it can be difficult to avoid developing a reliance to it.

But let’s face it, are the people who constantly showcase their supposedly fantastic lives to their followers really all that content with themselves? It takes an exhausting amount of time to craft the perfect photo, complete with the most suitable filter and the most striking pose, and to be honest, it’s a colossal waste of time.

So one Instagram user by the name of Michelle Liu has decided to take a stand against the beauty standards that apps such as Instagram have imposed on us, using her very own Instagram account @chinventures.

The 21-year-old student posts snaps of herself sticking her chin out towards the camera, which has the amusing effect of distorting her face in a very comical manner. Michelle has affectionately referred to the practice as “chinning”, and aims to bring an end to the image of perfection that social media often encourages us to aspire to.

One of the best things about Michelle’s chinning photos is that she takes them while she’s travelling around the world! If you take a look at her Instagram photos, you’ll see her in front of some of the world’s most famous landmarks or on some of the most renowned streets.
