[Title] => My fair lady
[Summary] =>
Last week, I accompanied a close friend to the grocery store when she wanted to buy toiletries. What she dumped into her basket were toiletries all right - that is, all the whitening varieties. I saw the works: whitening soap, whitening lotion, whitening foot scrub...and she even wanted those health capsules currently available that incidentally whitens skin. Nah, I didn''t judge her for it because if that''s what it takes to make her feel gorgeous, then she has every right to go for whatever products she wants.

[Title] => New Dove Campaign for Real Beauty inspires women with stories of beauty triumphs-ONLINE!
[Summary] =>
Dove's Campaign for Real Beauty returns with the same ardor and passion for championing a wider definition of beauty. And it's taking it beyond the beauty debate.
Truly, women have more to say on the issue other than their tickbox choices. The Campaign for Real Beauty is proving that women are ready to move forward from the debate and start looking into their personal experiences, their very own stories on beauty struggles, particularly during childhood.
