A swift video showing a woman’s transformation to divine billboard queen using makeup and Photoshop. I’m definitely showing this video to my daughter. (And yes, it’s for the Dove “real beauty” campaign, which I appreciate although I for some reason have never liked actually using Dove products.

[Update: Of course, of course, this is also a viral campaign – but one that I like and that’s completely honest about its corporate origins.]
