New Face Filter to Brighten up the Moment

Today, you’ll see a new face filter that lets you brighten up the moment by placing a beam of light on your selfie or the world around you — even if the sun isn’t shining. Tap the light to change between the vertical and horizontal orientation or tap anywhere on the screen to move it.

As always, face filters work with Boomerang, Rewind and other camera formats and creative tools. When you’re done, you can add it to your story or send it to your best friends through Instagram Direct.

Face filters are available as part of Instagram version 10.21 and higher for iOS in the Apple App Store and for Android in Google Play.
