The beauty brand said, “Social media is a big part of our lives, but the digital distortion young people see online is harming their self-esteem, confidence, and well-being.”
The message continues as the brand explains, “The Dove Self-Esteem Project has been on a mission to build self-esteem and positive body image since 2004. Together, we can stop retouching apps from blurring young people’s confidence, and build positive body image on social media."
