its not only oil of olay that is guilty of this crime. loreal, garnier, estee lauder etc all do that. why not ban their ads too? even magazines air-brush the pictures of celebs used in their photo spreads.

I hope this is a new movement towards real untouched images in magazines and tv. Wrinkle creams dont work, the only thing that helps is Melanin (Thank God im black), good genes, staying out of the sun, sleep and exercise.

And stretch mark creams dont work either. Its a billion dollar industry feeding on the insecurities of women. If you notice, you will see more male product ads, they are not satisfied with milking women, they now want to say if you use their moisturiser and hair product, you can look like the good looking guy from Lost or Greys Anatomy . Pathetic. They film mascara ads with false lashes and hair ads with extensions so how are we to believe their products work when they themselves dont believe in their products? Glad im wiser now.

Who are you telling? Even Beyonce with her Indian Remmy wan do hair advert too. Wise folks see right through the crap. Embrace your Stretch marks as they are here to stay. Bio Oil doesn't work either. It just fades the skin thereby making it less visible but it doesn't mean that it isn't there!!

I'd like to believe Twiggy was oblivious of the extent to which her picture would be doctored.

I've always seen her as one of the (ex)models that's 'real'.

Nonetheless, these companies have a habit of being quixotic. I give the Advertising Standard Authority 'The Horn' for sending the right message our future 'candies'

Bio oil does feck all for black women . Aunty beyonce tells us our natural hair can look like her lace wig or Eva Longoria tells us that our lashes can look like the falsies she wears in her ads. Its all an illusion thank God we are wiser and can see through the crapery that these industries are pushing.

^^^ You seem to know alot about stretch marks and cellulite.

The people complaining probably bought the product based on the advert and claims. That photoshopped image is Twiggy who looks like she is nearer 30 than 60.

But they can't ban the Ad. Dont advertisers have freedom of expression etc.
I know  that advertisers have their own law to protect them and provide them  the right to not tell the truth when they advertise. As long as it doesnt do any harm.

These ppl are prolly silly enough to believe that the product will make them look younger and beautiful.
Like hello, 99.99995 of pictures in magazine, TV, and ADs are photo-shopped/ airbrushed.

What are they going to do, ban all airbrushed adverts?

Well my dear people have been believing that there is that miracle portion that will eliminate wrinkles because of the lies of the advertising industry, sometimes they use an older woman and airbrush her to the max like Twiggy or use a 25 yr old girl to advertise a wrinkle product targeted for the over 50s. Its ridiculous and it has to stop. Personally I stopped buying magazines because of that. This may be a new movement towards untouched images in the future

at least if you are going to lie, cook it very welll and add tasty ind. to it to make it believable.

shes is 60 and no single  line or crows feet? give me a break!

@ Silk

the problem with these types of ads we see in the media all the time is that they portray unrealistic and unattainable ideals of beauty for women and girls to pursue and achieve. and it kills the body image of many women,especially young girls who think they arent good enough or beautiful enough because they havent achieved that ideal standard of beauty. it is a silent of killer of self esteem and self worth.

so am glad the ad was taken off. enough with all these yeye beauty ideals. i wish many others could also follow suite.

Ok, what are we going to do about those advertising hair relaxers with models wearing weaves?

~Sissy~:
