A new campaign is aiming to encourage people to embrace their noses.
The #Sideprofileselfie movement is urging people to post a picture of their nose in its full glory
It was launched by journalist Radhika Sanghani, who writes in an article for Grazia that she's spent much of her life desperately trying to hide from any kind of side profile photo because of how she feels about her nose.
She writes: “All it involves is taking a side-profile photo of your face, and then posting it onto social media. It may sound minor, but it’s an incredibly empowering thing to do, especially if it means conquering your side-profile fears and owning your looks. It’s also a really powerful way to inspire those who can’t yet imagine being brave enough to post a #sideprofileselfie.”
