What is the ruling on using filters that apply makeup, such as coloring the lips and cheeks, or changing the skin tone, or refining it slightly so that acne marks do not disappear completely? And what is the ruling on pictures found with female friends that use the aforementioned filters, knowing that most of them show an incomplete body?
Modifying photos is permissible as long as it does not alter a person's creation into something forbidden, or make men resemble women. Changing lighting and colors is not prohibited. There is no harm in photos on a mobile phone or computer unless they contain something forbidden. If the photo is of a woman, it is cautioned against strangers viewing it, and it is preferable to delete it. It is advised to request the deletion of your private photos from other women's phones.
