SOPHIE's

At the moment, we've reached a point in society where there really is no shame for being obsessed with your skin... Especially your face. The rise in popularity of skin care has only elevated our laser-sharp attention to detail any time it comes to the way in which we visualize ourselves and ultimately what we desire to show others.


Ever since SOPHIE burst on to the music scene back in 2013, she's routinely toyed with the idea of making pop music that falls under the genre "advertising," even going for now as to having her breakout hit "Lemonade" featured in a McDonald's commercial in 2015. While the British artist's latest single "Faceshopping" doesn't explicitly plug any brands, it definitely nods to the extreme measures we take to tweak the appearance of our faces from makeup to cosmetic surgery.


Yes, it's a banger, yet the song really makes you think about how we treat our faces. Any time does it stop being a form of self-expression and begin turning into a method to "synthesize the real"? Crank this track all of the way up below.
