      Okay. <strong>He’d still be hot</strong>. But would thousands of women be flocking to the mall to buy the exact same thing? He’d only have to wear it for about 2 hours, do the photo shoot and never touch the stuff again. It really wouldn’t be any different than what Jessica Alba does for L’Oreal. Not like these celebrities actually use the products they endorse 99.99% of the time. But hey, why not, I’m going to Macys. Be back soon.

      Have you ever seen a Fragrance commercial where in the end a woman gets out of a Ferrari because some fabulously handsome man opened her door? Get the idea&#8230;Buy our Fragrance and it is likely you will have a life changing experience.<span>  </span>Everyone knows better, but the funny thing about marketing is they stick with what works. On some subconscious level we actually buy into it.

        I wasn’t aware there were cosmetics products for your breasts. Okay maybe some glitter if you really wanna jazz things up. But come on! <strong>Will wearing that new lip liner really increase your bust size?</strong> Perhaps I have this whole thing backwards. Maybe these ads which display more boobs than the makeup, jewelry or accessory they are supposed to be selling are targeted to a different demographic. Perhaps they stimulate some primal instinct for the men in our life to go out and buy me those new hoop earrings…
