Beauty filters are fun at first, until they’re a subtle way to make you feel—again and again—like the way you really look isn’t good enough. Filters that change how you look can often start to change how you think about yourself, too. It’s a trap. So we don’t have those kinds of filters on Pinterest. For example, our Virtual Try On tools are a great way to play with eye makeup and lipstick colors—without distorting your face. Because you look great just as you are.

Pinterest requires a date of birth for new accounts —regardless of your age. We’ve also expanded our age verification process. If someone who previously entered their age as under 18 attempts to change their date of birth on the Pinterest app, we will require them to send additional information to our third party partner to confirm it’s legit.
