‘This took me way too long’ The photo that is stressing Twitter OUT

We had the dress, the stiletto and the handbag, but if you think it's only the contents of a woman's wardrobe which can send social media users into a tailspin, you'd be wrong.

In a move which has had Twitter users furrowing their brows and squinting at their screens, one girl shared an image of a woman's legs looking particularly glossy.

And while most of us assumed the individual in question had simply gone to town on her thighs with a bottle of oil, others weren't so convinced.

"Are these legs shiny and oily or are they legs with white paint on them?" Kayden asked in a post which has been liked and shared thousands of times this week.

Forcing the public to re-assess the photo was clearly a lot to ask, and many Twitter users admitted the task took some time.

"Once my eyes focused, I saw the paint. Now I can't see the shininess anymore," wrote one while another added: "Once I read it and understood it I see the white paint but at first I thought they were shiny."

And when most of us eventually came to the conclusion we were looking at a pair of legs streaked with white paint, one guy just had to throw a spanner in the works, writing: "I see black legs with blue paint on them."

Of course, you do.
