Innocence lost: the politics of something

Visual things change the way we view the world and our surroundings.
Money = Power = The people who get to control ideas that circulate. " The Garnier look" how elderly women will spend a fortune to look young again, they will believe what the adverts tell them too or what will give them the look they crave. Its all about selling the customer what they want, whether they work or cost they will still want it.
Most things nowadays consist of photoshop, adverts that we see daily that make us want to purchase the product, guaranteed there is something in that advert that has been adjusted to make us crave it more, hence the Garnier adverts where they air brushed Davina Mcalls tattoos out so she would fit the image better, I don't see how a women advertising something with tattoos will stop your purchasing, your buying the product for a reason, whether the seller has tattoos,piercings or wild hair. Shows what the world is coming too really, where we all have to be fresh clones of one and other, and cant stand out.
