I have said this for years I totally agree with you.

Yes they should, because good skin, the effects of plastic surgery are different. Plastic surgery often makes the skin look worse. If you have a look at women that have had facelifts, they in fact do not look very nice, they have skin that looks stretched and oddly shiny. Anyway, they use people that have good genetics anyway, how is that advantage any different from going under the knife? They're both traits not everyone has. Saying "Buy this beauty product, it'll make you look like me" is always a false message because these women were beautiful to start with regardless of surgery.

I think they shouldn't either. How can you tell people that if you use this (product) it will make you look like this. When the fact of the matter is they didn't use it there self. Hello!! When you go under the knife it's no longer natural beauty!

I know, its really misleading. There's no point saying you've used 'X' anti-wrinkle cream to get better skin if you've had a face-lift! They use people who have been under the knife because they look better than those who use the products.

Totally agree with you all the way, they're selling an impossible image and profiting from peoples insecurities all while knowing they had to resort to cosmetic surgery.

me too they are advertising cream they've never used in their life and telling us "I look like this because I use oil of olay" no you don't you look like that because you spent $10,000 on a face lift and a nose job. They paid for the surgery by doing the advert!

no way! they are greedy for the $ & misleading. i believe that any celebrities should only endorse a product that they use & believe in. if the product didn't work for them ( they had to go for surgery, injections, etc.) why try to hard sell it to us?

They should not be allowed to do that but you know that they push those products anyway. I will not buy anything they endorse anyway.

No! It's highly misleading and should be banned!
