Soap Box

Dove's campaign for real beauty is great.  The website is a bit too flash-mad but Dove1 the idea of featuring normal flawed people and promoting a discussion about natural vs artificial beauty is great.  Also, it's been executed really well.  Not often you see a Modern Marketing campaign from Unilever.  The only downside is that some of the comments on the site sound 'seeded'.  Never good.
