Campaign For Beauty

1) What were your gut reactions to this commercial?
When i saw this video i was disturbed by everything that people use just to be beautiful. It was sickening to see people undergo surgery and take medicine/pills to be something there not which is the problem with the world today. Everyone wants to be like something there not and then they go through all this stupid stuff because they don't like who they are. When i saw the little girl standing there, I was wondering what was happening and why she was there just staring off in the distance. And when they got to the end and the words said "Talk to your daughter before the beauty industry does", I was very intrigued. It made me start to wonder what was happening currently with our views on beauty.

2) What do you think about the central message of the commercial? Be specific and give examples to support your ideas.
I think the central message of this commercial was telling us that we shouldn't believe anything that we hear because the media puts so many ideas into our head of what is what and we get bored of our own self and ideas, so we follow someone elses opinion/idea. The bad thing about following someone elses idea is to the fact that then were not able to gain or create new ideas because we lost our own self in the process.
