Marcus Aurelius once said: “When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive–to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.” Unfortunately for some people, stress is a way of life, and Garnier, the European brand of cosmetic products, used this concept in its latest anti-aging cream advertisement. Some could label this campaign as a subtle way to influence people to purchase an anti-aging cream. We prefer to emphasize the non-commercial messages: stress is your enemy, and be compassionate to all the working moms out there.
