Snapchat has once again come under fire for how it deals with race.

Users of the app have noticed that many of the face-altering filters "whitewash." Upset Snapchatters point to the flower crown filter and the "beautifying" filter, both of which seem to lighten skin and eyes and contour the face to make one's chin and nose appear smaller.

Since the debut, and subsequent popularity, of the Coachella-inspired filter, Snapchat users have taken to Twitter and Tumblr to voice their disproval with the app.

snapchat needs to make a smoothing filter that isnt whitewashing. like yesterday — ain't no wifey (@TXMaaaade) April 20, 2016

Snapchat, I am very disturbed by the fact that your "beautification" filters make my skin lighter, and my nose and jaw smaller. Just saying. — Allegra Clark (@SimplyAllegra) May 9, 2016

@oozeneutral exactly @ snapchat stop whitewashing me — grantaire of color (@erisolsies) April 25, 2016

Real talk though: can snapchat keep the flower crown filter but take the skin lightening thing away b/c 🤔. — cai (@ursuIas) April 30, 2016

Was already upset @ snapchat for most it's filters/lenses being whitewashing and how there's that one that just subtly shrinks your nose — A.J. Chaudhry (@SassyRaptor) April 21, 2016

The whitewashing snapchat filters are making me internalise Eurocentric beauty standards(I've avoided doing this until now)&it needs to STOP — * (@madeyarrr) April 28, 2016

Lol so they try put flowers on top of the face to distract from the fact that it's a skin lightening feature



😂😂 Snapchat you're not slick — Dan Soff [JOKUZA] (@Swagadore) May 8, 2016

Other users have recently defended Snapchat over the whitewashing controversy, claiming the filters whiten and brighten all aspects of a photo (similar to a flash) and not only skin. That helps?

Snapchat was previously criticized on 4/20 for its Bob Marley filter, which many users condemned as a blatant use of "digital blackface." Snapchat, though, stood behind its filter, saying it was only meant to give, "people a new way to share their appreciation for Bob Marley and his music."

Snapchat has not yet responded to Mashable's request for comment.
