TikTok has announced it will block young users on the social networking platform from using certain beauty filters on photographs.

The filters allow users to edit photos and do things like make people's skin look clearer, their eyes a little bigger or their lips a little fuller.

Some filters also allow users to change their skin color, and it can be hard to see when a photograph has been edited in this way.

People under the age of 18 will be blocked from using these filters, some of which are created by users and others that are made by the app.

TikTok announced the changes after a report by Internet Matters, a children's online safety organization. The organization found that these beauty filters could be damaging to children's mental health because they put young people under pressure to look a certain way.

This can damage children's self-esteem and cause anxiety, experts say.

Christine Grahn from TikTok said on LinkedIn: "If our users don't feel safe, they won't bring their true selves to TikTok and the platform just wouldn't be the same."

One TikTok user told The Guardian in 2022 that she had considered getting cosmetic surgery after a period of using beauty filters on the app.

Fun filters that allow children to add dog noses or rabbit ears to images will still be available to use.

One problem with the ban is that not all users enter their real ages when signing up to TikTok. The company said it would soon be trying out new machine learning systems that could help find out when users had entered the incorrect age.

TikTok is under pressure to stop under 13s from using the platform by giving false dates of birth.

Children's safety charities want all social media sites to do more to make the platforms safe spaces for young people.

TikTok to Ban Under 18s from Using Beauty Filters

Do you tell the truth or lie in the IELTS test?

What if you are stuck when expressing yourself, when you lack of ideas, what do you do???

What if you don't have any content to share the moment you are asked a question on an IELTS test?

How do you feel about 'telling a lie' when this is the only solution on a test?

I found my Chinese students have a moral issue when I help them overcome 'being stuck' when speaking a question.

It's vital to be honest and tell the truth. We all know this, but the IELTS speaking test goal is slightly different.

Listen to the podcast and find out how you can overcome 'lack of ideas' when expressing yourself or when you can't tell stories.

You can simply imagine them.

You'll have more clarity on the recording.
