A Little Word On Airbrushing....

So reading the Daily Mail online yesterday this article caught my eye and i thought i'd share it with you. It's all about air brushing and the use of photoshop within the fashion and beauty industries. Now i love photoshop as much as the next person but since when did it become ok to make already beautiful girls and women, such as Julia Roberts and Kate Winslet, even thinner or more flawless, flooding us with an even more unobtainable level of perfection?
However at last the National Advertising Division is taking action - banning an ad by Covergirl for their new mascara, in which the eyelashes of the model were digitally enhanched. Not only misleading, but also a kick in the self esteem for every normal girl out there whose eyelashes dont reach her hair line!

So guys just give it to us straight please - we all want to look as amazing as our favourite models and celebs but we really dont like being lied to!
