How to add a temporary profile picture in Facebook?

Facebook started the concept of filters in Facebook profile pictures few months back. Be it the new Digital India, or the support for LGBT pride or showing support for Paris Attack, the new filters vary in design and are used to show concern, solidarity or support for the cause. By using the filter, your profile picture gets edited. Then Facebook introduced the concept of temporary profile pictures so that the profile picture gets reverted automatically to the original one, after the specified time lapses. Now, not only the profile pictures for the definite causes, but also your personal profile pictures can be used temporarily. This feature is available for only Android and iPhones but in limited regions only.
