   I like that the main image is a man - though it’s an Oil of Olay ad. Seeing the product tag at the bottom, with the balding man made me giggle a bit.

   Though I will say that I don’t think the idea original. It’s a bit of a cliché the idea of a woman not looking like her drivers license [or in this case passport.]

   But maybe that cliché is why it works for me. It’s not ground-breaking-ly awesome - but it gets the point across and did make me giggle a bit. [Though I'm fairly certain that has more to do with the look on the man’s face than with the message.]

   I always had the sneaky suspicion that “Oil of Olay” is called “Oil of Olaz” in German-speaking countries because the Z and the Y keys are swapped on German keyboards…
