This limited-edition coffee table book shares personal stories from more than 60 women around the world, plus [Getty Images](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/empowering-visual-content) and personal raw and un-retouched photographs curated by photographer and author of Atlas of Beauty, Mihaela Noroc. With this hand-bound book celebrating authenticity and Beauty Autonomy, Dove is on a mission to reverse the statistic that says two in five women would give up a year of their life to achieve an ideal look or body. Proceeds from each book will help to support and educate young people in self-esteem globally. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.5/10 - Popularity: 85% | Activity: 84% | Freshness: 26% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Marketing](https://www.trendhunter.com/marketing) > [Branding](https://www.trendhunter.com/branding) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Authentic Representation:** The celebration of unretouched photography highlights a shift towards valuing genuine and diverse representations. - **Beauty Autonomy:** Advocating for self-empowerment in beauty choices challenges the traditional beauty industry norms. - **Storytelling Through Personal Photos:** Combining personal narratives with unaltered imagery fosters stronger emotional connections and authenticity. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Photography:** The movement towards unedited imagery opens up new avenues for capturing and showcasing raw, genuine moments. - **Publishing:** Producing books that focus on authentic representation can carve out a niche in the market by appealing to readers seeking real stories. - **Cosmetics:** A shift towards promoting natural beauty and self-acceptance can disrupt the market traditionally driven by idealized aesthetics. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Non-AI Beauty Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-code.md) - [One-of-a-Kind Beauty Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-beauty-machine.md) - [Nostalgic Beauty Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unseenbeauty-initiative.md) - [Anti-AI Apparel Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pamela-anderson-for-100-aerie-real.md) - [Unfiltered Skincare Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/indu-spots-happen.md) - [Unfiltered Review Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dove-real-reviews.md) - [Gamer-Centric Beauty Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/real-virtual-beauty.md) - [Empowering Beauty Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/you-are-amazing.md) - [Truth-Forward Beauty Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-ordinary-x-uncommon.md)
