A few weeks ago I did a post like this and people liked it - and I like it! So here we are again with the media and social items that make me go What ?!?
You may remember this model from the last post -
Ok - I can get down with this androgynous look - I just wouldn't have thought Fossil would be the brand pushing it. But I can't really think of the last time I thought "Oh I want something from Fossil." So I guess they need an interesting ad campaign - well done Fossil you got my attention. But I still don't want anything.
Speaking of attention getting...
Nope. Uggg...why? Kate Moss looks air brushed to HIGH HEAVEN and that wig - do not try and sell me hair products when you are showing me a model that is clearly wearing a wig - it insults me. Just - No.
But if you are looking to get me to buy something...
Sticking it in a Crayon type box will do it! Or give me a rainbow selection like this and I want it all - it goes back to Crayola 96 color box. You were ballin' if you had that in elementary school (obviously I didn't and I have lingering issues) - so now I want ALL the colors ALL the time.
So what do you love/hate when it comes to advertising?

Most probably I love to see those ads but not so interested to buy until I tested some myself first. :D

Ugh, Kate. I have the same feeling when I see mascara ads "styled with lash inserts"--NO. Just no. It's cheating and it's insulting to me as a consumer.
ReplyDeleteThat Clinique ad is a great one - of course, I like Clinique anyway. Not that I buy a lot of department-store makeup, but when I do, I usually just go right to the Clinique counter.
ReplyDeleteMaking false claims on ads is a big turn off...you know like don't label something "creamy" if it feels dry. Don't label something "long-wearing" if it is is going to smear or fade in a couple hours. Don't just slap whatever word you want me to hear unless it's true. I hate mascara ads, lol, they are always wearing falsies or lash extensions. The Clinique ad looks appealing though. I hope they sell them by the set.
