Them apologizing doesn't make it any better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikvs 2,576 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 The full ad doesn't look wrong, but if you put screencaps like that it looks like a 'before-after using dove' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were trying to say that Dove soap is great for anyone no matter who they are. This mutual gaze was a “longing to touch” or a "pre-coitus" stare.

TEETHTEETH 1,836 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Even in full, it's a bad concept. Very reminiscing of something that has been done before. Not trying to blow anything out of proportion, but couldn't they see this coming?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
