dove evolution

[@alyssaj.2659]

I remember seeing this for the first time in 2007. I keep this in mind every time I see a model. And I never feel so bad about my appearance anymore.

[@sqtube111]

Congratulations to Dove for taking a courageous step in educating the youth. Hats off to the amazing producers and PR team !

[@audreyganz2638]

I can't believe that people DO that. Sure, it makes her prettier, but no human can possibly look like that, so it means people chasing beauty are practically chasing a rainbow. It's impossible to look that way.

[@acadle7]

I love that Dove is sponsoring this message! Many young women (and men) are striving to obtain this degree of perfection and sharing a message like this shows that it is just not realistic. The men and women we strive to model ourselves after do not even look like the people they portray themselves to be in advertisements. Great message!

[@myopinionstime]

My teacher showed us this video for photoshop class, She said photoshop is to show off how beautiful the picture can be, and not change the picture at all because the picture was beautiful from the start. Thank you Miss. Rodriegiez for telling us this.

[@fuzzycakesyum]

This video made alot of my friends feel better about themselves. Thankyou Dove

[@captainsealed]

Wait a minute, this video isn't about the evolution of doves. WHERE ARE MY DINOSAURS? YOU LIED TO ME!

[@cancelaaatoday]

One of my powerfully favorite commercials!

[@dottyubratt]

The two most jaw dropping moments: When her neck shot up and when her eyes went O.O !

[@aurora-vd3ij]

she looked amazing when they were done with her make-up, why would you want to change her facial structure, why does she needs to become an unrealistic looking alien ?

[@parnissia]

Four years later this still makes a huge impact. Even though I've seen the ad a thousand times, 0:42 (the neck lengthening) makes me gasp aloud.

[@NostalgiCrazy]

Still one of my top favorite vids on KZbin. I love the music I wish it was a full song lol.

[@bethanybeachgal]

we watched this video in my computer class. I go to an all girls school, and this video really helped us to understand that we shouldn't try to make ourselves look like the people in magazines or on t.v. Thank you Dove :)

[@3chic3]

I CAN'T GET OVER THE SONGG!

[@spinningincirclezzz]

Wow. I remember my sister showing this to me in first grade. I dont think I realized the full weight of what it meant.

[@pinkcat423]

I suddenly feel like there's hope for me to become a model XD

[@hanbaker1659]

This is really weird I don't know why, I just find it weird how you can make people look a completely different way by going onto a computer and re-aranging their face shape etc.

[@JanaTerra]

Agree!

[@cancelaaatoday]

Yeah, powerfully weird.

[@BlackfireGG]

then let me welcome you to the 21. century, you are late

[@nimeshsingh4943]

Call it Magic

[@Maxaker]

Hannah Baker Black magic!

[@MinamuTV]

Really sad, when you think about it. We live in a selfish culture that judges women by outer beauty when real beauty is love, humor, intelligence, responsibility, not artificial hotness. I'm a guy saying this.

[@strixcz]

Strong, important message and brilliant execution. Dove's goal may be another story but as for the ad - five stars... thumbs up!

[@QwertyTSecond]

I don't know whether to like this for being so brilliantly done and conveying so much, or dislike it because this is most of the reason why society is so damn shallow.

[@MakeSushi1]

wow, what a difference!

[@HarvestmanMan]

When I job-shadowed at a post-production company, I actually got to see this process being done. Believe me, it's more shocking in person.

[@MiraLove]

Imperfection in underrated.

[@daneidymazariegos7731]

I Remember My 6th Grade Teacher Showing Us This Video

[@AgathaDanastri]

the real beauty is you.

[@broadcastsunny]

I love this video and have shown it to many Girl Scouts over the years. Thank you!

[@graceelliott109]

She's so gorgeous... She doesn't need all of that editing!

[@bonqui-qui6132]

i would love to know who came up with the idea of perfect is beauty

[@samaworld]

gives me chills everytime!!!

[@user-lollers]

Wow. I used to think that cover models really looked that pretty, I was even jealous and felt depressed because I don't have anything they have... By these videos ive finally found the truth..

[@MimiMonkeyGirl]

Love this! I am 50, and Dove soap (and more recently moisturizers) are the only things I have ever used on my skin. All 3 of my daughters now use it exclusively also.

[@claudiac8385]

dear: all ladies, you are just perfect on your own compared to the fake airbrush models.

[@livewithnofears]

Dove does so much to help girls and I think thats amazing. That they're devoting their time to make people feel good about themselves.

[@katastrofa2201]

I've seen this a million times & every time i re-watch it im in shock

[@crissy4445]

I was showed this in class. I really loved it so I found it here and showed others ;)

[@BodModxCORE]

She was gorgeous without photoshop :) I could watch this over and over I swear

[@JacquesGaspardCajunCook]

True beauty begins on the inside and manifests itself on the outside where no makeup, whatsoever, is needed.

[@TheJennnq]

Really sad that people would vote this down. It is concise, it proves a point, and it is a well-done little film!

[@RovingStreets]

I am really impressed with this video. The vision we see in magazines and on tv is not even real anymore, this video really helps us to remember that what we see isn't what we should define as beautiful, but normal and all people are beautiful.

[@TranceGurl20]

One day when I look at a magazine.I want to see a non photoshopped person on the front cover as their natural self with stretch marks and pimples all the flaws that a human can have.This will send a message that you dont have to be all prettied up or be a certain weight to be or look beautiful.Embrace your flaws! Yes I am 23 and have skin issues mild breakouts and marjs left over from pimples on my upper back and back of upper thighs I accepted my flaws.... Well peace out peeps

[@claireanne11]

I love this video! Last semester in my Woman's Studies class our professor showed us this...beauty is so distorted by the media and it's not even true, natural beauty. No wonder young girls have such a hard time with self-esteem!

[@reginahoyos6630]

Dove thanks for showing that. It gave me hope

[@chloec7222]

She turned into another person

[@someonelikecierra]

I don't see anything wrong with encouraging girls all around to love the way you look, just the way you are. Confidence is a gift that everyone should have. Our looks are apart of us, as are our minds, so we should love and embrace them.. not ignore them or cover them.

[@Kenya368]

I'm not trying to be rude or anything but I honestly don't understand why girls get upset about this type of thing. And yes, I'm a girl. It doesn't matter what anybody else thinks about you. All that matters is what you think of yourself. If someone calls you ugly and you think you're pretty. You're pretty, your opinion counts the most. Don't call yourself ugly, because then guess what, you're ugly. Everyone on this earth is pretty. So don't call yourself ugly. BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT! :-D

[@bahrirachit]

Music : Flashbulb - Passage D

[@DuckliaOrluxe]

Ok, I'm scared to see beauty magazines and ads because of this... It's just so unreal

[@Deathmonkey1011]

I like the person pictured at the very start, someone real.

[@GaryKildall]

So you are actually telling me with Photoshop I can make me look good? :-)

[@estebanorlandovega]

what song is this ?

[@mawacaca1]

+Esteban Orlando Vega It's a piano peace by Benn Jordan don't know the exact name. This is a remix of the flashbulb song tho called 'passage D'

[@SelfishNeuron]

AWESOME!!! Just what I always suspected but much more impressive than I thought.

[@donoghu]

Hahaha... I went over the comments and irony is filled every where. Want to know what's fake? In today's movies, EVERY movies out in theater all around the world are, at least, remade 50% through CGI. Even schools' movies which involve only some house and school grounds. You think they really shot the movie in a school? Nah! They made the shot over a green sheet and made the background from a compute, removed all imperfection from the "look-like-18-years-old" actors who actually looks 30-40 even with their makeup. Even worse if it's fictional. The Avenger movies actually only have 22 minutes which involve real people. All other part are made with CGI through 90% of what you see on the screen. (That 10% remaining is, most of the time, their face which is still worked on digitally. Even their body is fake) Irony is that even this video "Dove Evolution" have been edited a lot in aim of manipulating the audience. The lightning of the original was weaker, so they changed the color range of the video to make things look clearer, they made sure that the "model" women isn't too ugly or too beautiful and that, initially, her "imperfection" seems present but still light. They made the choice of picking up a white blond which is a typical of the racial restrictiveness of the advertising. (The impact wouldn't have been the same with a model of another originality). Everything was made to be like a fake story based on reality... a sketch shown to the public. Those who watch are never in control. They are made to believe they are while they will never be. The day they will be in control, they will live in an area free of advertisement of any kind. If that day ever come, it will means that every currency will not exist anymore as nobody would need to sell any service or product to other for a living.

[@Misanthropyish]

I'm going to keep watching this video until I start to love myself as I am. 40+ views now and I'm no longer wearing make-up. :)

[@deadlock107]

this clip is simply amazing... always impress me

[@SonnyYoon-AlwaysSonnyHere]

Artificial beauty.

[@Honoraf]

my mom made me watch this becouse i always wanted to look like a model

[@MrJavierEQ]

I plan on studying photography during college, and I've actually started taking photos now. People criticize my way of thinking that Photoshopped photos are the worst kind of photos. Real beauty is not given by a computer, it already exists in everyone around the world.

[@julietownsend1953]

Not fair at all. How do we compete with photo shop and airbrushes when we have to just walk in the street. No just isn't fair.

[@AhmedYanaal]

I don't know what's real anymore.

[@NikkiImson]

Thank you Mr. Wenger for showing this!!

[@MsPoeticDream]

beautycrush

[@Flossing]

0:32 in this Moment she Looks so pretty??

[@frenchihere]

idk why i watch this video every single time im on youtube

[@Mad9977]

every picture in printmedia or internet, that is used to promote, is retouched. Mostly when you say "Wow she looks young for her age" you know it's retouched.

[@18GIRL45]

When i saw this video...my little sister said: WOW SHE'S SO BEAUTIFUL! but i said: she doesn'T exist beauty industry creates her... The beauty industry can hurt everyone

[@illuminatiwillfail6238]

This was SO FREAKIN' COOL!!! Good job 2 the people who created it!

[@KimSnyderOBM]

Wow!! No wonders we can as women can never feel we are ever as beautiful as what we see in magazines and everywhere. A lie told every single day, every photo you look at is tweaked in some way to look a in the minds of the creator 'better' The young lady in this video was beautiful before and after they applied her makeup/hair done there was no need to do a single touch up! So making one's neck looks better? Why?

[@lechakan]

Here, here, Kim!!! Couldn't agree more.

[@Mowgli_1]

mon prof de svt nous a montrer ca mdrrrrr

[@bugsybrown1745]

I agree. Her cheekbones are amazing and the eye-enlargement thing detracted from them.

[@warvaldance]

So... Photoshop is bad, but using tons of makeup is 'real beauty'? Thank Zeus I'm a man!

[@duuduuduuuduuu6392]

😍

[@Christoere]

Wow! I never knew this much change is done to models!

[@lisafreleigh9386]

iam beautiful

[@CytheriaXylia]

I honestly think she looked 10x better before they put all that makeup on her and photoshopped her. I don't really understand the appeal of thick, dark makeup. But hey, to each their own.

[@jzwillows]

+新入生愚かしい（C I X I） I do too - she looked "soft" & feminine

[@Musicandpringles]

we watched this in pdc today. have no idea why i came back to it but...woah

[@sofiagidloof5431]

La gent es com es i no nessecites fer cap ena de canvi

[@mattenjana]

zum kotzen sowas!

[@jeanettekwok1]

I love the photoshopping here. It is absolutely amazing!

[@domob17]

I think this is the best ad of dove.

[@obssesedHGfan]

Why would someone even dare to dislike this??????

[@jdominican17]

We live in a very superficial world and we have no one to blame but ourselves

[@SynapticReplay]

@Piper Thank for keeping this up, I always give reference to it. Cheers

[@Yinther]

The real secret is - the model was beautifull from the beginning.

[@lizzieafroggy]

That picture of her before the photo-shop was still a good picture. She looked pretty in in. They just ruined her Natural Beauty.

[@KardashianVideos]

@MinamuTV i`m glad there are still guys like you in this world . some guys , jus SOME , not saying all , would care about looks when the true beautiful thing is your personality .

[@brittanywinters2874]

This is fantastic.

[@slimjim561]

This video is truly eye opening.

[@DwellwiththeStablePodcast]

whats crazy is that she was already beautiful!

[@MsCrimsonBlues]

Whoa. This changes everything.

[@KarinaLicursi]

A fun fact is that both Axe and Dove are owned by the same company (Unilever), so as much as the Dove evolution shows reality of media, they are hypocritical. Axe treats women like objects, Dove pretends to care about self-esteem. Yes, always be confident and strong, don't judge a book by it's cover, but do keep in mind, these companies don't care about us.

[@cillano1r]

Wow. This video really is in-sighting.

[@AmyAberrant]

Because it is one of the most important videos for young people to see! Well done teacher.

[@mariagonzaga2264]

she looked pretty since the beginning of the video...

[@TheSmoker7]

OLD BUT GOLD

[@tazlema4789]

i watched this in ela class because we were learning about beauty . beauty is our unit.

[@leonasnake]

She is beautiful, both ways. Natural and Photoshopped -Nya!!!

[@ZoggleToff]

At the beginning look at her eyes, I think they are STUNNING. :]

[@thecrossfiles]

Excellent video!

[@alejandralopez1301]

This Is A Huge Self-Esteem Boost For Me

[@Maccla1]

this just goes to show you're prettier than you think.
