The increasing obsession with absolute bodily perfection could be taking a separate direction, as many models and celebrities make the selection to forgo the airbrush in favour of rehearsal and skin care products. Celebrities such as Victoria Beckham and Britney Spears are just some of the A-listers who are deciding to take a stand against digitally altered photographs. This will come as a pleasant surprise to the many concerned that slick magazines project unrealistic goals that many population want to attain. But just how are celebrities finding good without having their imperfections wiped out at the click of a mouse?
A false image of the truth
Diy
In a up-to-date interview with Harper's Bazaar, Victoria Beckham stated "I didn't want to rely on retouching. I wanted to look at those pictures in 20 years time and say wow, look, after three kids, I didn't look bad!" Similarly, Britney Spears released a number of pre-airbrushed photographs to be shown alongside digitally enhanced ones to prove just how undoubtedly photographs can be doctored. In the altered images, it can be seen that she has had her tattoo removed, her waist reduced, her thighs slimmed, her lowest made to look smaller and any signs of cellulite rendered invisible. The message from both these celebrities is clear. Many slick magazines gift a false image of the truth; absolute perfection is unattainable.
If further proof were needed that celebrities are just like us, country superstar LeAnn Rimes has stepped into the spotlight to discuss skin conditions, such as psoriasis - of which she is a sufferer. Other skin conditions that have been brought to the fore comprise acne. Actress Jessica Simpson has been a sufferer for many years and is now a spokesperson for many of those affected, encouraging them to seek out affordable and productive acne treatments.
The Diy approach to skincare
Indeed, as the price of many skin care products and treatments for inescapable skin conditions has decreased, more and more population are choosing to use them to help them look their best - along with celebrities. In addition, scientific advances mean that many of these products are becoming more productive than ever before, which is good news for the consumer. In fact, the personal care business is worth over £3billion in the Uk alone, with rocketing sales of moisturizers accounting for colse to £451 million. A narrative by trade magazine 'The Grocer' reports that, "growth in sales of facial moisturizers also reflect a Diy approach to attractiveness treatment." The narrative also suggests innovation and the amelioration of skin care products as a key factor in this.
Most of us don't have the selection to have our photographs doctored to take off unwanted blemishes or heighten our figures and nor do we have the attentions of a personal make-up assistant to hand. However, with many high profile celebrities preferring a more honest approach to their images, we can take a leaf out of their books and pursue other avenues. While there are many skin care products, inescapable skin conditions will need expert attentiveness - such as the increasing number of affordable acne treatments offered by cosmetic surgeons. By taking advantage of the falling prices and increasing effectiveness, we can all look our best with minute more than a touch of lipstick.
