Winslet is the face of Lancome, and she told E! News that her photos are not to be retouched.

She told E! News, "I do think we have a responsibility to the younger generation of women. I would always want to be telling the truth about who I am to that generation because they've got to have strong leaders."

She continued, "We're all responsible for raising strong young women, so these are things that are important to me."

Winslet's fight against photoshopping has been going on for quite a while. Back in 2003, GQ went overboard with retouching the actress.

At the time, she was quoted as saying, "The retouching is excessive. I do not look like that and more importantly I don’t desire to look like that. I actually have a Polaroid that the photographer gave me on the day of the shoot… I can tell you they’ve reduced the size of my legs by about a third. For my money it looks pretty good the way it was taken," in an interview with Hello! Magazine.

And in 2013, Vogue airbrushed their cover photo of Winslet so heavily that she was barely recognizable.
