The hypocrisy of women's fashion is insane and patronising, tbf. Like, how I'd frame it is this; "You're perfect, and we'll help you show off your best qualities." That's how I'd come at it from a marketing perspective. Not "YOU ARE GODDESSES BUT YOU NEED THIS TO BE GODDESSES EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE ALREADY GODDESSES"
Like, put focus on how everyone is unique and how makeup/clothing helps bring out that individuality and expression and individual beauty
Beauty is subjective so focus on the subjective
There's objectively attractive traits but people have preferences
or.... we could just not have to have all that in a makeup commerical
So focus on helping people be comfortable with their uniquenesses because there's a market for most people, yknow
because its just face paint
Yeah, but are you gonna sell a product by going "You probably don't need this but societal norms deem it mandatory so stick this on"?
See, you're trying to sell a product based on its merit. They're trying to do so based on emotions and morality. They want you to feel like you're supporting a moral company when you buy their products, and they want you to feel good when you see their commercials so you assosciate that feeling with them.
but i guess, these days... just saying "hey buy our facepaint" doesnt have the same ring to it
Yeah
If they said "Buy our facepaint" I as a man would be like "FUCK YEAH"
"WAR PAINT? THAT'S AWESOME"
right?
lol
im already liike, shit do i need some of this facepaint shit now?
damn i crack me up
I'd go for three diagonal stripes in the colours of the Irish flag, or something
I'm all behind making war paint an acceptable fashion choice for men, but first we need to make capes and swords acceptable.

"Oh I see you're wearing your messer today bartholomew. A fine choice for such a confined space."
