Influencer Chloe Szepanowski raises eyebrows by sharing a photo of herself ‘before filler’ for a viral challenge… but older throwbacks reveal what her lips REALLY used to look like
A viral challenge is sweeping Instagram that involves influencers sharing old photos from their camera roll in response to specific requests from fans.
And Chloe Szepanowski, who is one of Australia’s most popular social media stars, was asked this week to post a throwback picture from before she had lip filler.
She happily obliged by uploading a picture of herself with a slightly thinner pout, but the image she posted soon caught the attention of fan account Over Influencers.
Hmm! Influencer Chloe Szepanowski raised eyebrows this week by sharing this photo of herself ‘before lip filler’ as part of a viral challenge on Instagram
The account, which names and shames influencers for bad behaviour, compared the photo with much older images of Chloe in which she had even thinner lips.
The profile’s administrator implied that Chloe’s photo didn’t actually show her with natural lips, and suggested the older images were ‘better’ suited for the challenge.
‘Great choice of photo for “before lip filler”. I found some better ones for you,’ they wrote.

Over Influencers posted a series of photos in which the YouTube star’s top lip appeared much thinner than in the image Chloe posted.
It’s quite possible that Chloe’s picture did show her pre-injectables, but the way she was pouting in the snap made it look like she had filler.
Chloe has always been open about her cosmetic procedures, even documenting the experience of getting lip filler on YouTube back in 2017.

In August, she welcomed her first child, a son named Artis James, with her partner, Mitchell Orval.
The blonde posted photos to Instagram of herself cuddling little Artis in her hospital bed, alongside a caption describing her birthing experience.
‘From the first contraction at 2am Friday to the final push at 3.58pm today is all worth it. Our perfect little man is finally here,’ she wrote.
