We all know Instagram is used as a platform to project an image of the life you want, but not necessarily the life you truly lead.

And while we might try to remind ourselves of this after an hour spent scrolling, it helps to see it in black and white from someone who appears to have a life millions might lust after.

Acknowledging this, Austrian-born but London-based model, Jazz Egger, has made the decision to re-caption her Instagram uploads in an effort to share the truth behind the stunning shots.

From revealing that her skin had been digitally enhanced despite arriving at a shoot with a clear complexion to confessing she went on a Tour of London by herself because her friends refused to, Jazz is done with the charade.

Using #truthbehindthisshot hashtag, Jazz shines a light on the reality of the modelling industry while bravely highlighting her own insecurities and hang-ups.

Jazz, we salute you.

There was this…

 

photoshop lvl 7000 / sorry @robertsakowski for destroying your wonderful work xx (#truthbehindthisshot my agency told me on that day that my hips were way too wide and that I needed to lose weight in order to have a chance at London Fashion Week. I already was underweight so I decided to not lose any weight. I still got confirmed for LFW.)

And what about this?

 

Thanks for having me #LondonFashionWeek #LFWSS17 #fashionscout #runlabel #namedmodels (#truthbehindthisshot I didn't sleep much the night before bc fashionweek is pure madness. + I didn't eat/drink salt, sugar, fat and alcohol for months to prevent my skin from breaking out. Didn't work. Makeup artists covered it up.)

There's gonna be a video but you can already see some shots on my twitter @JazzEgger.#WBTourLondon (#truthbehindthisshot none of my friends wanted to go with me so I asked a stranger if she wanted to join me and so I went with her)
