I more so meant it within the context of beauty product advertisements. It seems, to me, that within this scope what counts as beauty has been artificially created, as exemplified through the commercial. While only physical beauty can really be shown through ads, beauty (in my opinion) encompasses more factors. That cliché phrase, what all girls hear, "true beauty is on the inside," runs along the lines of these other factors that I'm talking about.

Dove's ads are better than nothing at all. Hopefully it gets people buying the products to at least think twice, maybe make choices that are based on something other than a shallow conception of 'beauty'. But, you seem to imply that beauty is somehow associated with going 'natural'. Do you think there's anything more to be said there? Agreed. Dove’s ads are better than nothing at all.
