There is now a tiny purple sparkle icon on literally every photo in the Facebook app (yours, your friends’, your ex’s, that cringe 2009 album, everything). Tap it → choose one of five moods → wait six seconds → receive a portrait that looks like you hired a $5,000 photographer who also happens to be a master retoucher. No payment. No signup. No limit. The five moods that are currently destroying careers (in a good way)Executive 2026 Navy/charcoal suit, perfect Rembrandt light, blurred C-suite office.
