Which is better: A Snickers
or a Baby Ruth? We asked kids and adults to taste seven pairs of
candy bar doppelgängers and name their favorites

If you frequently find yourself looking at a perfectly tanned and toned (translation: airbrushed) model in a catalogue and thinking "She's perfect, I hate her," then take heart in what seems to be a new trend in the fashion business: real people as models.
Forget a blank-faced girl staring...

During summer, I rely upon a variety of Victoria's Secret Secret Garden body mists to make sure that the heat and humidity don't overcome my organic salt crystal (and slightly wimpy) deodorant. These body mists promise a slight moisturizing component that I've never really been able to distinguish, but eh, can't hurt. Recently, Dove has been getting in the face of all the big players and has come out with their own version of the VS bread and butter line.

Speaking of Dove, has anyone else seen their new ads? I was casually flipping through US Weekly on a plane yesterday (ignoring the New Yorker I was also traveling with) and noticed Dove's screaming-in-yellow new ad campaign aimed very specifically at women in their 20s.

There's a big story in this week's New Yorker about renowned photo retoucher Pascal Dangin (who works with every fancy person in fashion magazines you've ever heard of and tons that you haven't). In it, Dangin talks about softening lines, "re-doing" asses, adding hair to men's chests and on and on. It's fascinating. It's terrifying. It's the world we live in now, how it's gonna be forever, nothing is real anymore, it sucks, etc to infinity.
But then something surprising happens in the interview. The writer brings up the real women Dove campaign... Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (53) | Blog
