2. Glittering Generalities
This product is offering that "fine lines," "dark circles" and "crow's feet" will be erased. The first thing wrong with this is that there's no actual evidence of this. Also, it's beyond clear that this model was photo shopped and probably has never used the product.

1. Appeal to Fear
I'm not saying I'm pro smoking, but Jesus, this ad is not okay. It's quite terrifying as it implies if you smoke you might as well just put a bullet through your skull and kill yourself that way. I just feel this is super inappropriate and people should be presented facts and emotional support instead of using this scare tactic.
2. Black & White
It's presenting an either-or-choice of if you smoke kill yourself now or die later.
The Maybaline makeup commercials are very popular and I've seen this two themes in each commerical. The second ad is really powerful with very few words
ReplyDeleteGood examples. The Maybelline one makes me laugh, almost a parody of itself with the photoshopping.
