Art Attack!!

French artist and sculptor, Gilbert Legrand, could always see faces in everyday things, be it a spray bottle or a tap. Even as a child he would invent toys out of kitchen utensils. Now 60 years old Legrand has started putting his characters to life. He takes regular items from around the house, such as scissors, pliers and brushes, and turns them into a completely different character with his imagination. Check out some of his very cool illustrations below.

   
   

   

   

The Beauties of Lux

Establishing itself as ‘the’ soap for beautiful ladies, Lux has always had the most prominent ladies of Indian cinema promote it through the ages.

• Leela Chitnis was the first ever lady to feature in the brand's ad in 1941.

• Next came the dum maro dum girl, Zeenat Aman. She was all the rage in the 80s and every girl wanted to follow her style.

•  Madhuri Dixit ruled the 90s. The dhak dhak girl wooed the nation with her beautiful looks and dancing skills. She was the dream girl of everyone and Lux used this very idea to their advantage when they roped her in.  

• Stepping into the new millennium Lux boasted of ex Miss World Aishwarya Rai Bachchan as its brand ambassador. Known all over the world as the most beautiful woman, the brand could not have gotten a better face for itself.

•  From the new crop of actresses Lux picked Katrina Kaif as its new face. Known famously as lady luck, she elevated Lux to a whole new level.
