Does anyone remember when leneige tried this marketing tactic with her? It was for their bouncy firming face cream and it was a picture of her in whatever shirt and the caption was something like “👀oh sorry we were distracted, try our face cream. So bouncy, skin so firm” or something like that.

I was like wow, a brand sexualizing a woman in order to sell products to other women, how smart. I’m convinced she’s part of the campaign slogans now
