Flawless Life on Social Media: Instagram and Reality

Öz

When considered conceptually, flawlessness is the absence of deficiency or incompleteness. The individual in social networks presents his/her own posts to other users by hiding or changing his/her dissatisfaction both physically and psychologically. During this time, social networks function as 'perfecting'. When gender roles, sexuality and self issues are considered, it is seen that some practices such as being beautiful and staying young, which are the manifestation of the feeling of being liked, which permeates women's lives from their nature and is imposed in some way, are the dominant impulses in social media. The points that the study tries to examine in general terms are social media and digital transformation, then the illusion of flawlessness on social media will be analyzed. Finally, the ten instagram accounts selected. These influencers are chosen according to fitness, beauty, nutrition & health, lifestyle and travel categories. As a result of the study, it is seen that influencers are satisfied with their lives; they do not show difficulties they experience in life.
