The Rajni Bhabhi 2.0 (2023) Hindi Short Filmviral TikTok iPhone photo editing formula makes life look like a sunkissed wonderland.

TikTok users are finally taking advantage of iOS photo editing features with this "hack," which is less of a hack and more of an editing formula that plays with shadows, saturation, and color.

In one of the most popular videos demonstrating this method, TikTok creator anaugazz showed viewers the importance of trusting the process. The video, posted in April, has 17.3 million views. Using a selfie, anaugazz raised the photo's exposure and brilliance to the highest possible setting. Then, she adjusted the photo's highlights, shadows, black point, saturation, vibrance, warmth, and tint to achieve the final image's dreamy vibe.

In the midst of editing, the photo looks like a relic of MySpace posts. Don't be ashamed of blown-out selfies, though — even superstars like Lizzo fell prey to the overexposed, oversaturated aesthetic of the early internet.

Once you play with the iOS vignette tool and then lower the photo's exposure and brilliance to zero, you'll end up with a sunkissed image worthy of any summer mood board.
