CRITICSObjectification of women in media.A wolf-in-sheep’s-clothing approach.Ads featured thin models in Japan and Hong Kong.Ads played on women’s obsession with their bodies.

Page 24: Dove campaign for real beauty

Our perspectiveThey featured real women in their campaign as models were too perfect for

most women to aspire for. Also the idealized images of models and supermodels left the consumers feel bad about their own body image and hurt their self-esteem.

They broaden the definition of “ beauty” They use effective ways of campaigning.The cfrb website had various tools that helped bolster self-esteem of the

young girls. In all these ways they grabbed the attention of the customers.The campaign was quite different from the conventional approach in the

beauty industry.Also free publicity was given It broke the rule of the advertising business that “ only beautiful models

sell”
