Dove Beauty commercial

After seeing this video I don’t think that my perception of the media and how they portray women have changed. It just proves the point on how the media portrays women as sex objects who have big eyes and full lips. I am kind of surprised by the video showing how much work they actually have to go through to making these models look the way they do when they have there photo shoots.  I am surprised to see that after all the make up and styling of the hair the model looked like a complete different person, and yet the modeling agency still decided to retouch her photo by giving her bigger eyes and fuller lips. Which deceives women and men into thinking that they are women out there that actually look like this, when in reality not even the model in the picture looks like that.
