I still remember the first time I saw these ads when it first appeared in magazines in early 1998. I was totally blown away by them because they were so different and there was an Asian face on them. Since then, I've been a huge fan of Ling Tan.

mixed reviews, i love what they did with her eyes and lips in the firt photo. blush? a little too bold but the worst part is the weird hair. in the second pictures, they gave her strange eybrows and again, strange cheekbones. i find that stylists would only do such weird things with asian models.. its like, let's make them as otherworldly/alienish as possible since they are "exotic".
