After seeing all the messages, Maura decided to address the situation in a public post.
The Irish social media star shared three photos on Instagram for an Ann Summers advertisement.
The first image is the promo photo, the second is the same photo unedited, and the third is a photo without proper lighting.

In the caption, she wrote, 'My DMs are just flooded with trolls atm claiming I over use the smooth tool & enhance my eyeballs!'
'Should I really apologise for having good skin really?'
'And the trick to making your eyes pop is just good lighting and “white eyeliner” I like to just up the brightness and detail my outfit!'

Maura went on to address the negative impact online trolling can have on someone's life.
'The pressure’s of social media can really affect people so maybe think twice about jumping into somebody’s DMs with abuse about their image.'
'You really don’t know what is going on in a person’s life so please just BE KIND, it costs nothing!' She concluded.
