Me gusta...aunque el de pac man se aparta un poco...no está realmente escondiendo nada.

Fresh idea for sure. Except that doesn’t make it good advertising. For instance the copy could have been better. It's a bit confusing now.

What are you hiding if you draw a tattoo around your pimple?? Shame got nothing on you.

Second, the visual suggests, probably unintended, that you can solve your zit problem by being creative. The problem is solved without the product. In such a way that it even demands respect from friends for the sense of humor.

I know a teenager wouldn’t really see a face tattoo as an option. But they will take the joke, not the brand. As the brand doesn’t seamlessly connect to the idea that drawed them in.

WAIT.

WAIT.

How on earth are you hiding it if you're drawing a tattoo (or whatever) and bringing more attention to your face (especially the area with the pimple)?

VERY weak idea.

i AGREE with above^

it can work if the element added to "hide it" is clearly not looking like it is a part of/drawn on their face, just an object placed overtop.

....the pacman execution is the best attempt at it though.

Is the make-up so evident intentionally? Is it a part of the idea?
