No wonder our perception of beauty is distorted.

This came on Digg this morning about 5 hours ago, it has already been Dugg like 1200 times!  …. op, now 1230! We all know that this happens, but I guess I didn’t realize how far marketers distort people to make things sell. This Dove advertisement called “No wonder our perception of beauty is distorted“.

This is a fantastic marketing campaign by Dove. They are doing it for the Dove Self-esteem Fund, a campaign for real beauty. This campaign is refreshing.


Digg!

    Wordpress.com doesn’t allow custom templates I would have used them otherwise :D

    Girls today are so concerned with living up to the standard that our society expects. All you have to do is pick up a magazine and flip through the pages, and you see gorgeous women who embody our society’s perspective on beauty. If only every girl could see just how unreal the faces on the billboards are. This is really a good cause and I wish it was discussed more often because it is a serious problem, especially in America.
