MAURA Higgins hit back at trolls who accuse her of “editing” her sexy snaps – revealing it’s “all about angles and lighting”.
The 30-year-old star shared the bizarre things that she is accused of airbrushing in a lengthy Instagram post; including the whites of her eyes.
And the Irish beauty was sure to prove the critics wrong with a trio of sexy snaps as she posed in lacy red lingerie.
Maura posted three photos as she showed off the eye-catching underwear, which included a floating cami top.
With her brunette locks slicked back into a ponytail, and accessorising with a pair of gold hoop earrings, Maura gazed directly into the camera lens as she posed in front of a large plant.
The second photo was almost identical to the first but without any editing at all, and the third was taken with worse lighting and from a different angle, with Maura posing in another way and pulling a face at the camera.
She captioned the trio of images: “Warming up for Valentine’s Day @annsummers #beyourfantasy.
“Slide for this original image & then look at the last image where lighting, angles etc are all wrong. My DMs are just flooded with trolls atm claiming I over use the smooth tool & enhance my eyeballs!
“Should I really apologise for having good skin 
really? And the trick to making your eyes pop is just good lighting and ‘white eyeliner’ I like to just up the brightness and detail my outfit!”
Encouraging cruel trolls to think before they speak, she continued: “The pressure’s of social media can really affect people so maybe think twice about jumping into somebody’s DMs with abuse about their image.
“You really don’t know what is going on in a person’s life so please just BE KIND, it costs nothing!”
The star was praised by her followers, including best pal Molly-Mae Hague who leapt to her defence in the comments.
She wrote: “I mean you look even better in real life so

Molly then added: “Jealousy be uglyyyy
”
Maura’s boyfriend Chris Taylor quipped: “Your eyeballs & skin make me dream about cheese and rainbows”.
Maura shot to fame on the 2019 series of Love Island, where she had her sights set on boxer Tommy Fury – who was with Molly-Mae.
She later found love with Curtis Pritchard but the pair split soon after leaving the villa, with she and fellow Islander Chris confirming their romance last year.
