CARNET - Arhiva 2021 Loomen

In the advertisement it is showing us a handsome, successful and maybe rich man. With the title “I don't expect success I prepare for it”.  When people see this they automatically buy it because we all want to be those things, and if we buy this perfume we are “preparing” for the success. It's actually the easy way to “ be successful”.

In the second advertisement we can see a women. She is becoming younger and younger by using this cream. People buy it because all of us want to be forever young and beautiful and this cream is giving us a hope that it's possible.

The last advertisement is showing us a picture of a woman's legs. She is wearing a beautiful white dress with the title “Where dresses and mini skirts”. I think that the advertisement is actually controlling us through over insecurities. It's like they are saying “if you use our cream you will have beautiful legs so you could too wear a dress beautiful dress”.

These days people are very naive. In this advertisement, we see a successful and handsome man who attracts us to buy such an expensive product.

In another advertisement, we see a cream that should "rejuvenate" us and such advertisements attract women who want to look younger. Such creams are full of chemicals and actually only damage our skin.

In the last advertisement, we see women’s legs promoting a fat-removing cream. Advertisements like this also appeal to women, although almost everyone knows that products like this can’t help that way, but everyone is fascinated by the image and hopes for such results.

In the first picture I can see  a so called “rich man”  and successful because I think every rich man first has to be successful so he can become rich. We as humans  want to be better and better physically and to look better of course. So this picture actually manipulates us, hiss look, and maybe the perfume name “boss”

The second picture is about becoming younger & we will automatically become more beautiful. So first think that manipulates us to buy that cream is the picture, then is the “buy 2, get 1 free”. We get manipulated when we go in the markets to buy food when we see 2+1 free or something, so you can imagine how quick you’ll buy this cream when you imagine yourself being younger. And honestly 99% of people don’t want to get older with ages so yeah. 

The third picture is about cellulite, and some of us are too lazy to work out so when we see this we’ll think that that’s is the easier way to get rid of the cellulite. And the second is the text “wear skirts blabla” 

So I think to be manipulated first we have to “kinda manipulate ourselves” cuz if for example we are happy with who we are, we will not want cream for becoming younger and so on or if we want to wear skirts it doesn’t mean we can if we have cellulite. So FIRST we have to stop body shaming  ourselves or stop thinking we will be more successful if we buy this and that. And then when we are ungrateful about ourselves, that’s how we get manipulated from others. Seeing the “photoshopped pictures” in these products & reading the texts we will just think about how “perfect” we will become. 

In all three pictures we can see that add's are manipulating over us. In the first picture we see an actor Ryan Reynolds in suit behind the big bottle of BOSS parfume. It leads men to buy it because Ryan Reynolds looks successful ans rich. And he sure smells nice. 

In the second picture we see anti-aging cream. First of all, pictures are photoshoped and fake. No one can anti-age because it's not biologically impossible. Which leads to lying to people to spend money on their cream. Next, buy 2 get 1 free, that is just a call for people because they know they are going to spend less money. 

In third picture we can see a text "wear dresses and mini skirts" because their cream legednly erease the cellulite. No women wants a cellulite and they are going to buy it to have a nice legs and to be comfortable in their body. But, I would like to add that everyone can wear skirts, even if they have a cellulite.
