Celebration of Real Beauty Photo Shoot by Amy Walker
Poor self image is not a new problem. We have been hearing about it for years. We talk about the effects of the media on young girls. We talk about the weight of the models in the fashion industry. We do a lot of talking! And yet I still see so many women, both adults and teens that do not feel good in their own skin. Dove soap did an awesome marketing campaign trying to promote real beauty. But when they followed up their campaigns with market research, they did not find positive results. They found that women prefer looking at skinny, beautiful, perfect models. Even though the models made women feel worse about themselves, they felt better about the products.
