ThisLux advertisementwasfoundinThe StarnewspaperonSaturday,13th
December2014.
Witha Tescologoon the top, thisadvertisementfeaturesamanbeingseducedbyawomanadvertising
showercreamby the brand Lux.A prominentmessage“Ignite the Spark”standsout at the top of the
advertisementfollowedbythe message “WithIrresistiblySoftFragrantSkin”.
In myopinion,thisadvertisementappliesfourpersuasionmethods. The firstone isusing
attractive communicators. Both the man and womanare dressedupelegantly.Theyare bothgood
lookingandthe womanisseento have softand fairskinportrayingthe image of Lux.
Next, credible communicators are usedinthisadvertisement.Whenpeople seethe man being
seducedbythe woman because of herskin,people will trustthe brandas the womanhas soft and
smoothskinbyusingthe product and menwill be seducedif womenuse the product.The womanis
credible because herbeautyisdirectlyrelatedtothe Lux showercream.
Notonlythat, thisadvertisementconveys messagesthatdo not appear to change attitude.The
message “Ignite the Spark withirresistiblysoftfragrantskin”,doesnotappeartomanipulate the
readers’attitude towardsusingthe productLux.Itdoes not show tendencytopersuade the readersto
use the brand. It is not directlyrelatedtothe productitself asone can’tgetseducedbymenby having
only softand fragrantskinby usingthe product.
Finally,the message “Ignite the Spark”isa message withemotional content. Thismessage may
appeal tomost younggirls andwomen.Theymaybe charmedbythismesmerizingmessagedbeing
portrayed.Thisisan effectivemethodof persuasionasemotional contentsare muchmore appealing as
comparedto logical analysis.Thisadvertisingmoodisefficienttoattract customersespeciallywomen
whowant to have betterskin.
