LOS ANGELES, Oct. 3 (UPI) -- Rumer Willis doesn't appreciate being Photoshopped.

The 26-year-old actress recently posed for a Franziska Fox lookbook, and was dismayed when the images were drastically retouched without her permission. Willis told Elle the incident caused concern because she wants to promote healthy body image in girls.

"They Photoshopped my face and my body, and I wasn't okay with it," she asserted. "I didn't approve it. I was like, 'You know what? That's not the kind of thing I want to be putting out there. Girls who look at this shouldn't feel like they have to change themselves or have some weird ideal that you have to be Photoshopped to look good or look perfect."

"I really want to set a good example," she shared. "I learned an interesting lesson from all this and I have to be much more specific and say, 'Look, this is who I am. If you want me to be part of what you're doing, these are the things I live by.' Don't slim my arms down -- I worked really hard to get them to look this strong."
