Description
"In our factory, we make lipstick; in our advertising, we sell hope," said Charles Revson, founder of Revlon Cosmetics. On the strength of that hope, more money is spent annually on beauty products in the U.S. than on education--over $6 billion on makeup alone. Media activist Graydon encourages readers to look critically at the culture of beauty both past and present. Whether it's the different standards for guys versus girls, the assumptions we all have about models and celebrities, or the message that "the right makeup" can make you a better person, Graydon will help you face up to the culture of beauty and the beauty industry hype. A selection of photographs takes readers on a tour of beauty culture through time.--From publisher description.
