It seems that the clever chaps in charge of airbrushing for Olay went a little too far in removing every line from the face of model Twiggy who is 60.
The advert for £24.99 cream face cream has been deemed misleading as it cannot be said to be solely responsible for keeping her face line free.
Jo Swinson, who is MP for East Dunbartonshire, got involved in the original controversy over summer claiming that these airbrushed images should be banned and that we need to be more realistic in our expectations.

I wonder if they will have to put small print on ads like this from now on? Have you noticed how the ones from hair and mascara say the model was styled using hair extensions or false lashes?
