Description:
This year, an alarming story hit social media and global press. Girls as young as 10 are being influenced by social media to use adult anti-ageing skincare.

?This can not only damage their skin, but also their self-esteem; Dove’s research found that nearly 1 in 2 girls aged 10-17 expect to worry about their appearance as they age, and 1 in 3 expect to turn to cosmetic work or plastic surgery to alter their appearance.

Dove decided to speak up and defend girls everywhere by raising awareness of this harmful trend. So we asked a simple question: “When did 10 stop looking like 10?” Our campaign juxtaposed real girls from the past with real 10-year-olds of today who are affected by this trend.

Our photographic comparison of then and now left no room for emotional ambiguity, powerfully contrasting two worlds – one full of carefree fun, one full of angst and self- awareness.

Casting was critical to creating a resonant, truthful depiction of the effects of toxic skin care content, and how this has changed the pressures 10-year-olds now face.

We worked with real women who were united in our mission to source archival photos and videos of them at age 10, unaffected by social media. We also found real 10-year-olds today who have been exposed to or affected by anti-ageing content. These girls needed to be aware of this dangerous trend but not currently under its influence.

Once cast, our 10-year-olds recreated problematic skin care content they’ve seen online. Their photos and footage were self-shot on smart phones and self-directed by the girls themselves, using industry standard accessory ring flashes and basic lighting. Their photos and videos are a sobering reflection of the toxic content young girls contend with, and an indictment of social media’s influence on girls overall.
