The 'Team' singer points out two differing pictures of her from the same event this past weekend.

Lorde has hit out at the widespread use of photo retouching after declaring that "flaws are OK" to her followers on Twitter.

The New Zealand star directed her 1.3 million followers to two pictures of her from the same event, one natural and one edited and retouched to remove any flaws or marks from her skin.

"I find this curious, two photos from today, one edited so my skin is perfect and one real," Lorde posted. "Remember flaws are OK :-)."
