Ok, maybe not Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp, but everyone else.
I tried for years to get it through the daughter’s head that these people don’t actually look like this in real life, that women don’t have perfect bodies, teeth, hair, and complexions. They are airbrushed, erased, and manipulated in some form or fashion. I curse the people in the advertising field and they are all going to Hell.

This reminds me of an Ugly Betty episode where they did this to a poor girl. Oddly enough, not Ugly Betty. I like to see some freckles on a person.
I did a research paper in college about the effects of the media on womens perceptions of their bodies. It's amazing how many young girls actually believe that people look like their photos. Even when you show them proof, they still believe that they can achieve a photoshopped body.
That was fun. I've done some pretty good retouching myself.
Maybelline should come out with a line of makeup called Photoshopped. They’d make a million.
If it works in layers and has a clone brush that comes with it then it would be worth it!
Just think how much you could save on tattoos also right? With that you could change them instantly to go with your mood.

I had a post all worked up about the porn industry going hi-def, but by the time I’d finished it, I was so grossed out by the whole idea that I trashed it. The whole NYT story was ridiculous!
