Yassify

Etymology

From the exclamation yas (an emphatic "yes" from Black and Latino LGBTQ ballroom and drag culture) plus the suffix -ify. It was popularized in late 2021 by the Twitter account @YassifyBot, which ran images through the FaceApp filter to comic, heavily beautified effect.

verb · /YASS-ih-fy/
To glam up or heavily over-filter an image until it’s exaggeratedly, absurdly polished.
What it names
It names the comic excess of digital beautification — applying so much makeup, smoothing, and enhancement that the result becomes surreal rather than flattering.
Example
Someone yassified the Mona Lisa and now she has full glam and contour.
