Kim Kardashian’s unedited swimwear photos exposed as fans slam star for photoshopping ‘fake’ body
KIM Kardashian has outraged fans over her swimwear photos after her unedited pics from the photoshoot are revealed.
The reality star modeled sexy bathing suits from her new SKIMS line.
Kim posted photos from the shoot on social media, though some users called her out on the seemingly altered snaps.
In an online thread, one critic pointed out the Hulu personality's photoshopped appearance by comparing the pics Kim posted to the untouched snaps from the shoot.
The TV star donned a sultry one-piece metallic swimsuit with a large cutout around her midsection.
She paired the poolside outfit with a poufy 70s-style blonde wig, oversized earrings, and heavy makeup.

Kim stunned in the ensemble as the photo showed off her curvy figure and smooth, olive-toned complexion.
The unedited pic, however, proved that the 41-year-old's natural appearance is not what she portrays online.
The photo highlighted Kim's lighter skin tone, thicker waist, and fine lines that she seemingly concealed with photoshop.
The user shared a second pic of The Kardashians star in another silver suit with the same side-by-side comparison.
The photo again displayed Kim's authentic self without altering the snap.
They captioned the post: "Kimmothy's stories vs reality."
KIM'S REAL LOOK
Others expressed their thoughts on the supposed photoshopped images.
One person believed Kim's legs looked "bruised" in the untouched pic, while another questioned if they were "scars" from a cosmetic procedure.
"I was wondering what that was too. Maybe it's from all those surgeries," chimed in a third.
"It's not bruises or surgery scars or shadows from a tree like someone else mentioned. Those are just the shadows of her natural fat deposits," theorized a fourth.
"Women's bodies are lumpy and with harsh light like that you can see the texture that you don't normally see. Kim is a woman in her 40s, her skin just isn't that tight anymore, despite her many surgical attempts maintain the appearance of youth," they added.
Others defended the model's editing job, saying: "I see a big difference in the lights and the skin color but honestly she is great in both."
Another countered: "She looks great but I disagree. Her waist in the first photo, her boobs are higher too. Thighs are smaller. Second photo her waist is craaaaazy small. I think she looks great if she would’ve left the photos alone."
A Twitter user had the same thoughts: "Damn no stretch marks on her body and she had [two] babies!! People were blasting @kimkardashian. Her hair is fake and body fake!!"
PRICEY PRODUCTS
Kim previously received backlash over the price tag of her new skincare products, as many believed the items were "overpriced."
One social media user remarked about her skincare line: "SKKN is overpriced and questionable.
"Other than her lip kits, her products are overpriced and mediocre. I heard something about Kylie Skin worsening someone's acne," they added, referencing her half-sister Kylie Jenner's cosmetic line.
A second agreed: "Yup. they’re not selling makeup, they’re selling the idea of themselves. most of their followers - you know the ones - don’t even wear or buy the stuff they sell. They just follow for this sort of content."
A third chimed in on the costly swimsuits: "I mean... I can go on Etsy and find these exact suits, made to measure for cheaper than what she sells them for."
Another commented on Kim's thinning hourglass figure in the photos calling her a "futuristic barbie."
WEIGHT LOSS
Critics have been concerned about the star's drastic weight loss, as she's undergone a noticeable body transformation in recent months.
Previously, the TV star shocked fans when she lost 16 pounds in three weeks to fit into Marilyn Monroe's iconic dress for the Met Gala.
Kim - who attended the event with boyfriend Pete Davidson, 28 - told Vogue on the red carpet at the time: "I tried [the dress] on and it didn't fit me. I said, 'Give me three weeks.'
"I had to lose 16 pounds down today. It was such a challenge. It was like a [movie] role. I was determined to fit [into] it. I haven't had carbs or sugar in about three weeks."
She would eventually open up more about her weight loss during an interview with the TODAY show.

"It actually taught me a lot about my lifestyle and my health, and since then, afterward, I continued to eat really healthy," Kim shared.
"I mean, I'm down 21 pounds now. I'm not trying to lose any more weight, but I have more energy than ever."
