    Never underestimate …
    Never underestimate the power of the medias. I once loved this girl that wasn’t allowed to go out much so she spent her time watching TV. She was far from perfect but in her face all went together and for me she was beautiful. Anyway, she thought she was fat, needed surgery on her face and so on. TV also changed her perception of love and other people. In the end she was totally messed up.

    i blame airbrushing. look at the role models for girls these days- cheryl cole, katie price etc. They are just fake. I love cheryl but she wears so much make up. whatever happened to natural beauties like marilyn monroe?

    I think it’s very commendable for Dove to place so much focus on encouraging people to have self-confidence and self-esteem.

    yeah but you must have a good self esteem with yourself and not with the surgery done to your body…I think this video has a good point cause girls nowadays like to retouch their body too much…they are not contented with what they have

    this is a very good ad.
    the book “My mother My self” is really helping me understand these issues in myself. I suggest it

  23. BRILLIANT AD! …
    BRILLIANT AD! Really glad a corporation like Unilvever/Dove are taking a stance on this. I don’t recall this being shown in the UK but it definitely should be shown worldwide.

  24. Beauty industry …
    Beauty industry creates complexes and then makes people buy their products.
    Yet another explotation of basic human psichology.We all want to be attractive subconsciously.
    Pretty sad stuff and no one does anything about it cause it brings some folks a shitton of money..

    another very good …
    another very good advert from Dove!

    I think it is really true that people want to be more and more thinner, softer, lighter etc…This is what the majority make us believe !! And going to the extrems!( to be more than “unique”(haha)) And no one seams to see anymore how beautiful they really are!
    I love Dove!!
