ALEXA MITCHELL IS a Youtuber from the States, whose interesting experiment on Tinder has gone viral in the last week.
The idea behind the experiment was to compare no make-up selfies and retouched photos to show the massive difference they can have on your online dating results.
She started out with three make-up free selfies as her profile
She then swiped right on the next 100 guys that came up on her Tinder
This got her a thoroughly decent return of 16 matches
But then, using the photo retouching app Relook, Alexa replaced her original photos
The app removes blemishes, and can basically do anything you want to a photo
The she swiped right 100 more times
And the new photos got her 73 matches this time
It’s hardly surprising that people on Tinder would base their swiping choices on looks, but maybe the experiment serves the purpose of alerting people to apps like Relook and what they are capable of.
Here, the full video tells the story from start to finish:
