The video addresses the issue of acne in teenagers. However, it focuses mainly on the

influences women since a very young age.

This video is about how the media makes extreme alteration to woman appearance
particularly the face. This applies to my research because it shows how the woman we
see on advertisement arent real. Creating unattainable standards of beauty that
devalue the importance of natural beauty including the model in the video itself.
