Poker Deposit BonusTransform Your Leathery Mummy into a Beautiful Model
March 21st, 2008 Paul Lucas
Infomercials have used plenty of “before and after” pictures to demonstrate the effectiveness of their products, but I’ve never seen one quite as drastic this:
I guess the product they are advertising, Dermitage, doesn’t just reduce wrinkles—it actually transforms the Creature from the Black Lagoon into a human being!
Usually “before and after photos” have the before on the left and the after on the right. So people might misinterpret this and assume the product will turn your face into a leathery relief map of the American southwest.
One disappointing thing about this ad is the words that say “simulated imagery.” So you mean that Dermitage won’t actually turn my mummy into a beautiful model? Can now any two pictures be used for a before and after comparison as long as the words “simulated imagery” are included somewhere?
Hat tip: Ashley Halsey who found this ad on the MSNBC website.
That small arrow in the middle of the ad must be one of those “slider” things where you drag it from the left to the right to see the before/after. Which explains why here the “after” is on the left instead of the right.

I also found this version of the Dermitage ad:

I think the “before” pictures look like a domestically abused corpse!
