Make up/ Abuse advert response

This advert plays on the fashion industry to raise awareness for physical abuse towards women. It does this very effectively by using make up as an example of how people hide the things that happen to them just like how make up hides your true appearance. It also makes people feel very obliged to say something due to the nature of the image heavily orientated around pathos and making people feel uncomfortable due to the blood on her face which would make a lot of people somewhat horrified or disgusted that someone would do this to another person and also annoyed that she would try to hide it. Although the image may be considered highly offensive and inappropriate i believe that it is completely justified as it is clear that because it is so inappropriate that more attention is brought to the issue of abuse and it will ultimately cause people to pay more attention to this issue and hopefully make an attempt to stop it.
