I think that was Dove

I'm not 100% sure, but I do seem to recall it being a commercial for their skin care line, but I could be mistaken.
As for the VS thing, I don't even want to see older women in the catalog because we're wonderful. I want to see them in the catalog because I want to determine whether it's something I could/would wear. Much like my outer clothes- it does me no good to see what something looks like on a size 0 because it's not going to look anything like that on my size 10 self. Obviously marketing cannot target each individual, but a slightly broader cross section would be nice.

Use Dove bar soap to get the Vaseline out.
My daughter got into a jar of Vaseline when she was two years old. My pediatrician suggested Dove bar soap. It worked like magic! Hope this helps.

Yes, it was Dove. I agree that seeing older models of varied sizes..
helps us to imagine what clothing will look good on different body types and older/younger people. I know that Lands End used to have a feature called My Model, or something like that. You input your height, weight, measurements, even age, face shape, hair color and style, and you had a more or less realistic model, and the online shopper could then try the Lands End clothes on the model before buying. It was a little painful to be truthful and put in my measurements, and then see my cartoon model stand there in her underwear waiting to be dressed! LOL But I have to say that it was helpful. I tried on clothes that I thought would look great, and they didn't. When it came to a bathing suit, I actually tried on a recommended suit that I never imagined would look nice. It looked nice on the model and even better on me when it was delivered. It wasn't perfect, but it was a handy tool. I should go back and see if they still have that feature on their site.
