Lux for self esteem!

I detest the Lux ad seen on many Arabic TV Channels (and now to haunt me in Movie Theaters). A model who is beautiful in every aspect: tall, slim, well proportioned, nice features & nice hair, uses Lux beauty soap, so that she would feel like a star. I’ll let this pass for now. But why have Mona Zaki as the star? Why would this goddess of a model want to look like Mona who is petite, heavier and though has lovely eyes, can’t be the ideal look a model like this thrives to be? So she is a star. Does that mean that this model can’t draw looks except if she was famous? Even the clothes look better on the model. The Ad just doesn’t make sense to me. The roles should be reversed. Mona should use Lux so that she could feel as pretty as the model!!

Actually the ad in itself is all wrong. It promotes the need to feel like someone else to be noticed. What happened to promoting self esteem? If that model has self esteem problems, god helps all the females watching the ad.

You think you have a problem with your self-esteem? Try this quick test. I turned to be normal with a score of 78. My ego must have been bottom low when I did the test!
