The deception of beauty

Advertisements are made so that people, potential consumers, will look at them and think to themselves "I want that product so I will look like that person." People look at advertisements and assume what they are seeing is real and obtainable. This ad just goes to show much deception is in advertising and how people kill themselves to look a certain way when in reality that "way" is never going to be possible. This woman does not look the same in the beginning of the ad as she does in the end of the ad. This shows another way of how a person will be tricked by society and advertisements to try to appear a certain way, beautiful.

This is a great ad. And it's true everyone is tryin to look like what they see on television or in magazines or ads but in reality those people like we see don't even look as we think they do.. This lady looks totally different from when they first start with her to when the photoshopping is finished. People need to learn to be the way they are meant to be.
