This is crazy. Advertisers might as well grab random people off the street, then...

Dove has always amazed me with the things they do for their campaign for real beauty.  One of the few corporations I really like these days.

Woah, that's insane. The modern idea truely is twisted! Somehow I feel pretty all of a sudden :)
I heard they were photoshopping a little on the images they did, but I never thought it was this wild. She's like a hole other woman.. I can't believe how artificial this is.

That ad is ok. On the buses here they had an ad campaign for 'real beauty'. Now, not that I don't agree that a lot of girls you see on the street are good looking... it's just that they choose REALLY REALLY ugly/old/wrinkley/freckley girls to do the campaign. So in actual fact, they were ugly and the ad was way off. There are way more better examples they could have chosen.

I felt sorry for the old lady, but I didn't think the freckled one was bad. All the rest were No.

Wow...you suck.  Someone should spit on you.

It probably wouldn't be too hard to photoshop me to look like that to be honest.

Well it is strange. There are many woman that do not need to be 'upgraded' to be shown in an advert. Why did they choose her?

Somehow I feel pretty all of a sudden :)

^ that is why.. Dove gained another customer.

We wouldn't even have to photoshop a tiara on you...
