Magazine advertising share a common message theme: SEX SELLS. Advertising uses sexual content such as sexual or erotic images, and words or phases to attract the attention of the consumer who then notice the product. This form of advertising has been used for centuries dating back to the 1800s. The famous tobacco company W. Dukes & Sons Tobacco, used a strategy to sell tobacco in 1885, by inserting trading cards of sexually provocative actresses into their tobacco packages 3 ( see image #1 4). W. Dukes & Sons became the leading tobacco companies by 1890. How about this slogan “To make your skin flawless” from Woodbury’s Facial Soap company. The soap company was near its end in the early 1900s. To boost their sales, they changed their advertising. They had previously used images of a doctor’s face on their soap wrappers and advertising. Instead, they incorporated images of romantic couples showing attractive, young beautiful women along with slogans as “A Skin You Love to Touch” 5 to increase their sales. This strategy was very effective. The advertisement contained a couple; a young beautiful woman looking straight ahead and a handsome man looking at her. The male model is holding her right hand with his left arm is wrapped around her, holding her close to him. This gives the viewer the idea that the two models are a couple. The slogan in the

Fashion plays a major role in a person’s life because it is expressing how one looks and feels about one’s self. Clothing, accessories and makeup communicate fashion, which are all successful ways of bringing attention and persuasion to popular fashion brands. However, can also lead consumers to higher standards thinking that they can resemble the professional model posing in the advertisement. Like a Cover Girl advertising fade proof, waterproof, and ignore- proof mascara and new intense eye shadow blast that has a photo of Drew Barrymore behind a light grey background with light blue eye shadow around her entire eye. Likewise, revealing Drew Barrymore’s greenish blue eyes with perfectly curled black eyelashes that one can have from the use of this particular new Cover Girl eye shadow blast and mascara.

According to Potter, a media platform targets and produces messages by looking at the audiences “appeal to existing needs and interests” (Potter 69). The CW took their niche into account when partnering up with different beauty companies to promote empowerment through women. Covergirl partnered up with The CW’s new show riverdale, which gave each female character a different product that matched their variety of personalities. The CW and Covergirl want to reach out to the audience to “be encouraged to try different techniques to play up their personalities, moods, features” (Steinberg “CW Taps Cover Girl”). According to the network’s senior vice president of integrated marketing, Barbra Robin, they are hopeful that through this advertisement, they can attract more advertisers that target a female audience, in order to create “more stories.” Gina Rodriguez, who stars in Jane the Virgin, says "art tears down misconceptions and opens eyes to the beauty of our differences. We can't all be the same, but we can learn a lot about what we are not through art" (Crupi “CW UPFRONTS DIARY”). The CW was able to promote this message by partnering with Dove in order to create “The Campaign for Real Beauty,” that uses all women of different shapes and sizes, rather than a typical TV model. The Dove brand had their commercials during Gossip Girl because they wanted to promote beauty in all ways by using The CW to target a younger audience, since it’s demographic is usually women over 35 (Steinberg CW's 'Cwinger'  ). These ads were presented to promote women to be who they feel they want to be, rather than what a typical women feels they need to be. The advertisements were strategically placed in the different shows in order to be able to speak to The CW’s niche that they have so strongly

As I grew older, the intricate hairstyles my mom would create became a Mecca for a sticky fingers and stray paperclips. On annual school picture days, while the night sky was still soaked with gray and the golden streetlights barely peeked through the fog, my brave mother would undertake the task of pressing my unruly tresses. Those days, I remember feeling as if I finally fit in with all my friends with straight hair. Paperclips and pencils never tangle in their hair and I wanted the same for myself. I fell into the absurd illusion that looking similar to my friends could validate my place in the world. So I abandoned my mother’s hands

It was a profitable choice for Dove that set it apart from its competitors and built customer loyalty, and also helps women shift their thinking and learn to love their own beauty. Though not everyone agrees, Dove made a financially smart decision that furthers women’s right to feel beautiful the way they are, which is all around a good

The Dictionary defines the word Beauty as “A beautiful person, especially a woman.” Nowhere in that definition does it suggest the woman is a size 0 with big breasts, flawless skin and high cheekbones. This is the message Dove is trying to send by creating “Dove’s Campaign for Real Beauty”, to make women of all shapes, sizes, and color feel beautiful everyday. However, shortly after Dove released their first campaign, media columnists such as Richard Roeper and Lucio Guerrero were quick to reflect their “professional” opinions. After reviewing Jennifer L. Pozner’s article on Dove’s “Real Beauty” Backlash and the naïve comments these active media members have made, I found through

The commercial “Camera Shy” produced by Dove skin care factory promotes the use of Dove products and also attempts to confront the negative impression that older women have on themselves. The advertisement commences off with series of older women hiding from the camera and avoiding being filmed. Their reaction is understood to be because of their insecurities. However, as the commercial goes on, younger groups of females are shown and they readily embraced their physical image and found no reason to hide. Their innocence as to what beauty really signified or what societal standards of beauty are, made them immune to the insecurities older females face in their everyday lives. The advertisement uses the theme song peekaboo, as an irony to show

This ad for Dove shows a girl who is clearly unhappy and uncomfortable in her own skin. Above her are the words 'thinks she's fat'. At the bottom the ad goes on to explain what the dove self-esteem fund is and how it helps girls ages 8-17. The purpose of this ad is to bring attention to how some girls have low self-esteems and will tell themselves that they are not beautiful. This ad is also bringing attention to the company Dove itself, by showing that they support girls and wanting to make them feel beautiful, so that you will buy their products.

This ad was taken from the Women’s and Health magazine, a magazine that targets women starting from teenagers that are searching for perfection to old women who lost confidence and are searching for it. It’s for the middle-class women that are interested in their health and appearance. This shampoo would give them a young and healthy hair filled with joy and happiness that most of the people lack these days.

The Dove campaign for Real Beauty was the brainchild of Ogilvy & Mathers, Edelman Public Relations and Harbinger Communications (to be referred to as simply Ogilvy) and the project was known as the “Evolution” campaign. The marketing campaign began in 2004 under the corporation known as Unilever. This diversified conglomerate is the parent company to the Dove Company’s line of beauty and body products. The campaign began as a result of survey conducted in which only 2% of women believed they were “beautiful.” Unilever saw an opportunity to reach a saturated market from a fresh perspective. After hiring Ogilvy, the message grew into one of the most successful advertising campaigns in Unilever’s storied history.

Dove had developed self-confidence work shops for women and girls, which are in line with its objective of maintaining the “Real Beauty” image. Using women from different ethnic background is also a good strategy for Dove to continue. This strategy welcomes international women differences and Dunleavy’s team gained a competitive advantage by using women of all shapes, sizes and color.

Promotions in the marketing mix of Dove: Dove has strong brand awareness in the consumer market because of Dove’s branding and advertising. Marketing policies are the reason why Dove gets success. Campaigns and advertisement improve the brand image and build a positive impact on consumers’ minds (Bhasin, 2016). Dove’s advertisements are aired on various channels of television and radio.
