This video (the Dove film: Evolution) is a must see. It's the time-lapse transformation of a model's face from make-up chair to photoshop computer enhancement to billboard. It's shocking.
The image of beauty that we're sold in the media is so exaggerated it borders on the unrealistic. Did you notice that the computer makes her neck longer and her eyes bigger? She wasn't just airbrushed, she was morphed into a different creature, a caricature of a real person. And every girl who sees her is going to feel inferior, even though the actual model herself looks nothing like the billboard!
