This is what a fully doctored Meitu photo looks like. I added a "hand-drawn" filter, increased the blur, and added stickers.
Here's how to get there. First, boot up the app. First impression: although this app is available in English, it's really targeted towards Asian consumers — specifically, women. But don't worry, all kinds of people can enjoy it.
After taking a photo with your front-facing camera, you can add Instagram-style filters. These won't transform your photo, but will change a few things. Here's the "youthful" filter.
You can adjust the amount of airbrushing or effects for any filter.

That's not what I look like!
I liked the Chinese New Year option!
People have already started to use the app to transform Donald Trump.
Another fun game is to run your photo through the hand-drawn filter until it no longer looks like a person.
It's available for both iPhones and Android devices.
