Mascara Ads: This is something I've been thinking about for a while...
I enjoy make up. Really, I do. I have been an avid MAC user since I was twelve, and recently converted over to BareMinerals as well.
But now I must expose them for their LIES:
THESE EYELASHES ARE FAKE.
I am utterly annoyed by every and all mascara ads. Not ONE of these models are wearing their own lashes--- ALL. FAKE. Every time a mascara ad comes on (especially the CoverGirl one with Drew Barrymore) 
I must change the channel to avoid throwing my TV out my window screaming "LIARS!!!!!" I get so peeved that these advertisers think we will actually believe their client's product has magically transformed the beautiful model's eyelashes into lush, gorgeous works of art.
And, in the end, would we really buy their product if the eyelashes were short and clumpy? No. But let's be honest in our advertising...
2 people have something to say about this:
so this is hilarious, my sister blogged today about her amazing new eyelash treatment called Latisse...if that doesn't gall you...
Oh, I hate mascara commercials! I've always thought they were crazy to think women would believe that those lashes aren't fake. It's like, Really? That's all from a bottle? I don't THINK so!
