She is one of Tinseltown's most impeccably groomed stars, with a hair and make-up team at her beck-and-call.

But it seems even Mariah Carey isn't quite up to snuff, at least when it comes to society's rigid standards of beauty.

Jezebel has published before and after photoshopped pictures of the 44-year-old from a Wonderland magazine shoot shot by Terry Richardon.

Too much? New photos have emerged showing before and after photoshopped pictures of Mariah Carey from a Wonderland magazine shoot shot by Terry Richardson

In the photoshopped images, Mariah's appearance is altered to make her appear slimmer and more tanned.

One before shot shows her posing in a fitted black frock with a slit to the hip.

But the image was heavily retouched, and changes included trimming her waistline, bronzing her skin, toning her leg and removing the creases on her neck, as pointed out in a GIF created by Jezebel.

Is that really necessary? The 44-year-old has her waist trimmed, her leg defined and her skin bronzed in one shot

In another picture, Mariah wears leather gloves while sucking on a diamond necklace.

In the after version, her wrists are inexplicably thinned, as pointed out by Jezebel, and her stomach is smoothed out.

And in a picture where she poses with her twins Moroccan and Monroe, her breasts are enlarged and her hair is given more volume.

Night and day: In another picture, even Mariah's wrists are inexplicably thinned

The pictures have sparked controversy for perpetuating unrealistic standards of beauty.

Jezebel also criticises Richardson's signature shooting style for necessitating the retouching.

The website says his point-and-shoot style and harsh flash isn't suitable for a high fashion shoot.

Good enough as is: Mariah showed off her slender frame as she posed in France late last month

In the top two GIF's, why are the before images so out of focus and grainy? Could this be a reverse Photoshop fail?

That's just really creepy. If steroids are illegal for athletes, then Photoshop should be illegal for celebrities.
