Khloe Kardashian insists she’s had a ‘POSITIVE impact’ on beauty standards despite backlash for photoshopping pics
KHLOE Kardashian insisted she’s had a “POSITIVE impact” on beauty standards despite backlash for her photoshopping pics and plastic surgery.
The 37-year-old opened up about the topic during her recent interview with Variety.
Despite receiving plenty of backlash for editing her photos and going under the knife in the past, Khloe insisted she has set a positive example when it comes to beauty standards.
While discussing her family’s impact on beauty standards, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum told the outlet: “I would like to think that I’ve had a positive impact.
“I would like to think that I’ve made people feel more inclusive and more seen.”
She then argued that she tries to be inclusive with her clothing brand Good American.

Khloe said: “I’ve really fought — the department stores that carry my brand, they’re not allowed to stop at sizing; they have to carry the full-size range, which is a 00 to a 32.
"And you can’t separate them on the floor; they all have to be put together, so there’s no segregating different sizes or anything like that.”
She continued: “I hope it’s made women feel better about the shopping experience that they don’t have to go to different departments, if you are in a certain side range.
“We were also one of the first brands to have three different size models on our websites. This is really what we believe. It’s the ethos of the brand.”
PHOTOSHOP BACKLASH
Khloe is regularly called out for photoshopping her Instagram photos.
Back in October, KUWTK fans accused the star of editing her butt in photos taken backstage at Saturday Night Live.
Meanwhile, social media users identified a slight curve in the wall behind her and questioned Khloe's abs in a past nude bikini post.
Critics regularly point out how Khloe often times looks like a totally different person.
However, the internet analyzes Khloe's appearance every time she shares a selfie where she looks undoubtedly different than in her previous photos.
At times the reality stars chin appears pointier, her waist and face appear skinnier and the tip of her nose could look thinner.
Experts previously told that the changes to the KUWTK star may be a mixture of surgery, weight loss and photo filters.
UNFAIR COMPARISONS
Also during her interview with Variety, Khloe admitted it was "really hurtful" to have people constantly comparing her looks to her sisters’ when she was younger.
Khloe shared that she and her sisters have noticed that everyone is much more “vicious” toward her than anyone else in the family and they don’t know why.
From her looks to her relationships, she said it’s been extremely difficult to be negatively commented on throughout her career, especially when she's been compared against Kim, 41, and Kourtney, 42.
"When I was younger, always being compared to my sisters in a way where I can’t be related to them because we look different,” the Good American founder said.
Khloe added: “It was always emphasized that they were so much prettier. And that’s just really poor taste.

“Those things were definitely really hurtful, just to always be compared to them, especially in the fashion or beauty world comparing our bodies or faces.”
Since she knows what it’s like first-hand to feel hurt from all of the online negativity, Khloe said she now tries to always “spread positivity on my platforms.”
