Spoof Ads

1 comment:

  1. The spoof advertisement is for the company cover girl. Cover girl makes beauty products, like quality and clean make up. Known for having the girl next door image, their advertisements and products are directed towards the younger women of America. Our spoof advertisement shows a beautiful young lady. Her face is littered with blemishes from using cover girl, we know this from the well known slogan they use. The advertisement is obviously showing that they test their products on animals. I think that this ad uses and manipulates cover girls reputation against them. It does this by using the humorous little rodent at the bottom saying "how does it feel?" It is telling the viewers that animals have feelings too and that it is wrong to test something as unimportant as cosmetics on them. To finish the ad, blisters and sores were placed on the cover girl user, as to say that this can happen to your young beautiful face too. The readers need to know that cover girl is not as "easy and breezy" as they say they are.
