The “OMG You’re So Pretty" trend gives TikTokers a chance to reveal what they look like with full makeup and filters before showing the world their natural appearance. There’s no doubting the fact that this trend is opening the door to criticism from trolls and haters, but the users who are choosing to participate are clearly willing to deal with any minor repercussions anyway. Receiving a few hateful comments isn’t enough to tear these people down.
