People trying TikTok's LGBTQIA+ makeup filter

The pride makeup filter lets users play around with different makeup looks based on the different pride flags, and have even made it a game to have the filter try to guess their sexuality.

June marks the annual pride month across the globe, as it’s a dedicated celebration and commemoration of all people in the LGBTQIA+ community.

In honor of Pride Month, several new filters have been added to TikTok to help celebrate but also bring awareness to the struggles that the LGBTQIA+ community is facing. One of these filters is the pride makeup filter which assigns you a random makeup look based on the colors of one of the many different pride flags.

TikTok users love the filter as they have it try to “guess” what sexuality they identify as, which can take a while as the filter has 15 different options.
