Marketing tactics do not target your wallet, instead,
They target your wounds- this statement I recently read
It caught my attention being eerily true
While at the same time being tragic too..
*
The deep insecurities you have internalized
The myriad ways in which you have been made to realize
That you are flawed- all of your vulnerabilities
Are exploited freely by many industries
*
Therefore before you give into the temptation to buy
A product that appeals to your emotions, you should try
To see where the messaging behind the product leads
You do not want to fall into the trap cleverly laid for people like you indeed
The message is designed to keep you feeling insecure
But it is in your own hands to ensure
That you spend your money using reason as a guide
Identifying your emotions and keeping them aside

I think make-up is the worst. Dark circles? Blemishes? Buy this product and banish them and look beautiful! Meanwhile, I search for the best under-eye concealer… I need to reread your post.
