Airbrushed make-up ads banned for 'misleading’

If you’ve watched the news today you would know that cosmetic adverts featuring airbrushed images of actress Julia Roberts and model Christy Turlington have been banned by the advertising watchdog. L'Oreal admitted retouching but denied that the two adverts were misleading.

As this was beauty related i thought it would be interesting to hear what you think aswell as mine. I believe you will never get a makeup advertisement that hasn't been airbrushed to some extent. I also think you will never see a mascara advert where the model doesn’t wear ‘last inserts.’ This drives me crazzzzzzy! If the mascara/foundation is so good why do they need to use these things? Its so misleading, and that's why i have so many products because you have to buy them to see what they are really like. Its giving beauty a false image.

Dying to know whether you all think the same as me? Please comment and let me know!

Today i ventured over to the e.l.f store to take a look at some products after looking at some reviews. I also noticed you can get 25% off your total up until the 25th of July, what a bonus! If you want the code just tweet me or comment on this post and ill happily send you it. I'm yet to decide whether to buy the products I'm about to show you now, or wait a few weeks as I'm not in desperate need for any new makeup. So….
