The Garnier Anti-Aging Campaign Asks People to Not "Ruin It This Time"

— May 10, 2016 — Marketing
There are many things people would like to forget when it comes to their early years, but the Garnier Anti-Aging ad campaign points out that there are a few things to remember fondly. In this case, lush and strong hair. Yes, said hair may have been in an awkward stage in terms of style, but the Garnier Anti-Aging ad campaign reads, "Don't ruin it this time."

Conceived and executed by Publicis, an ad agency based in Mexico City, Mexico, the Garnier Anti-Aging ad campaign focuses on the idea of second chances.
