Somehow Barbie and pink are synonymous with each other, despite Barbie's plastic body not having a single slash of colour, apart from the lipstick she's been moulded with. Still, the idea remains, that barbie is the western epitome of grace and desirability, and the eastern world longs to recreate her so-called femininity. They do this with a wide variety of whitening creams, surgeries such as eyelid removal, and now, pink nipple cream. Yes, that's right.

A product which can have no lasting effect as it's essentially rouge for the nipples, and not in a sexy burlesque style way. No, this cream is aimed at making the areola are a little more rosy, hence more attractive (in some people's eyes).

Hmm. Sadly there must be a market for this or it wouldn't exist, bu its just another sad signifier of women's worldwide discontent with the bodies they were born with.
