1 IN 2 WOMEN ARE CRITICIZED FOR THEIR BODY: DOVE CALLS FOR MORE BODY LOVE*

01/02/2022

Now, we don’t like throwing around numbers to make our point. But when the numbers are representative, and they are simply too astonishing, we do believe they have to be heard. According to an independent study by Dove, more than half of Belgian women have experienced unsolicited comments about their appearance at least once. If you look at women from Flanders between the ages of 18 and 34, that number even goes up to 77%. So in a world were body positivity has become a major talking point, body shaming is still omnipresent.

That’s were Dove is stepping in. Known for its honest campaigns, the skincare company hopes to raise awareness about body shaming and to put an end to it. Because all bodies are beautiful, in their own unique way. Dove encourages you to treat your body to some love, not only with their brand new nourishing product line, but also by taking action against social pressure and abusive comments. Together, we stand up for more Body Love.
