50+ Free Aesthetic Filters — Pick Your Vibe

🔥 Trending — CCD Digicam: the early-2000s point-and-shoot look, with a soft flash glow, cool shadows, warm highlights and an orange date stamp. Flash Night: harsh on-camera flash with a blown-out centre and dark edges. Disposable: warm, grainy film with light leaks and a date stamp. 2016 Vibe: the faded, high-contrast, warm-pink nostalgia that is back again. Jelly Pink, Milk Tea and Coquette: soft, airy, Korean-style pastels. Halation: film with a red glow around the highlights. Cold Blue: icy, bright winter tones. Lavender Haze, Clean Girl, Anime Sky, Teal & Orange, Dark Academia, Muted Earth, Cyberpunk and Noir are trending too.

🎞 Film — Golden Film (warm yellow tones), Portrait Film (soft skin tones), Cool Film (crisp green-blue), Instant (a faded instant-photo look with a white frame), Vintage, VSCO, Faded Diary and Lomo. 🌸 Soft — Dreamy, Sakura, Peach Soda, Superstar, Stardust, Floral, Sunkissed and Sunrise. 🎬 Cinematic & 🖤 Moody — Midnight Cinema, Golden Hour, Matte Fade, Foodie, Ocean and Chase. ◼ Black & white — Noir, Matte B&W and Cygnus.

📼 Retro & 💥 Pop — Y2K (washed-out digicam glow), Camcorder, VHS Tape, RGB Glitch, Vaporwave, Webcore (hazy purple VHS/scanline mood), Twilight Webcore, Night Vision (pixelated green CCTV), Fuchsia Static, Bubblegum Pop and Lapis Lazuli (bold duotones). Plus the Original if you just want to compare.

If you only try one, make it Webcore — it's our personal favorite and the filter we recommend to everyone first. That hazy purple VHS/scanline mood works on almost any photo, and it's usually the one people end up sharing the most.

Make Any Filter Yours — The Adjust Panel

Every filter can be fine-tuned. Open 🎚 Adjust to change Light (brightness, contrast, highlights, shadows, fade), Color (saturation, warmth, tint) and Effects (glow, grain, vignette, sharpness). Your adjustments stay on when you try another filter, and the Intensity slider lets you blend a filter in as little or as much as you like.
