The poster for Skincare featuring Elizabeth Banks uses a direct harmony with natural skin tones, beautifully complemented by the striking blue of her eye. The design makes effective use of a tight crop, creating an intentionally uncomfortable closeness to a woman crying, yet still managing to promote her skincare product through the tears. The use of this intense crop draws you into her emotions while subtly highlighting the product's role in her appearance. (Overall, this is a powerful poster design that cleverly balances vulnerability with product promotion—which I assume is the theme of the film.)
