LifeStyles Condoms have a new television spot running that is direct and to the point, with no double entrendes or locker room humor.
The spot is for the latex-free SKYN Condom and was shot in dim hallways, dim bedrooms and dim cars with steamed windows. It shows couples making out, which often leads to the need for a condom.
The spot was done by AMP and will run online at MTV.com and ESPN.com.
