They say image is everything, including the clothes that you wear, the make up that you use, and even the body structure that you have. But who created the image of beauty and gives us the guideline of what is beautiful and what is not? Does your image correspond to the industry's standard? Come discuss the notions that the Beauty Industry & Us have lived by through the reinforcement of pop culture! For more info, please contact Violeta at vigonzales@ucsd.edu.
