However, the current generation of men want to take care of their beards, smell good and have a glowing skin. Women also want products that take care of their whole being, and something they can personally identify with; that need in the market informed me to come up with organic skin care products that are gender neutral.

    L’Oreal, Shiseido, Unilever, and Emami all share a common thread. They each, like many other make-up companies, make a profit off of colorism – prejudice against individuals with a dark skin tone – through the manufacture and sell of skin lighteners. The skin lightening industry is worth millions of dollars and is still growing in many countries around the world. The industry is booming for many reasons, such as: perceived benefits of light skin, the type of advertisements companies use, and a lack of governmental intervention despite the known consequences of using skin lighteners.…

    Our primary research indicated that organic skin care products are more likely to be bought and used sometimes, and there are lots of factors attributed to that specific usage frequency. Some of the top rated factors include the lack of knowledge regarding the products, price, and purchase location. Throughout the duration of our research on skin care products, we have found that organic, especially Arbonne International organic skin care products have a high potential of becoming known and used, or even leading skin care products if monitored and constantly updated correctly. We have some short and long term recommendations on further research and tactics specifically implemented for our client, Arbonne International, to make this prediction…

    That is quite a promise and claim. The message is that if you use this product line your skin will look better in two weeks and may even look like the model in the advertisement (who 's photo has probably been perfected by a computer program). I am not a dermatologist or skin expert, but I do know that once your skin has damage, such as wrinkles, spots from the sun damage or age, there is no way to reverse the affects. Especially not with an over the counter skin care line in the price range of Oil of Olay products. I believe this ad makes big promises that will not come true, however, it is not unethical since worst case scenario will be consumers that are disappointed that they spent money on a product line that they thought would improve their skin when it does…

    In the 1900s, cosmetic products, like the Sweet Georgia Brown Cleansing Lotion, were introduced to American culture and slowly began to replace the process of creating beauty products at home. The Sweet Georgia Brown Cleansing Lotion, made by Valmor Products Co., is an example of one of the new beauty products introduced at the end of the early 1900s. This product was specialized for African-American women, which can be understood from the image of the African-American woman featured on the bottle. The cleansing lotion was intended to cleanse, and arguably whiten, an African-American woman’s skin, which can also be understood from the image of the African-American women on the bottle since she is visibly wearing products that give the appearance…
