I spotted this make-up advert while I was in Hong Kong:

There’s something disturbing about it. Leaving aside for a moment the fact that the range is called “Nude Inspiration”, yet the model is wearing thick, dark, make-up, there’s just something… erm, wrong about her eyes.

Is this a Photoshop disaster? Admittedly not quite as bad as Ralph Lauren‘s, but possibly more disturbing for being subtle.

Or is it just a trick of perspective?

Whichever, to me her eyes are either not at quite the same level, or one is closer to the centre of her face than the other.

Oh and her mouth is fucked up too.
