Seriously??? If anything they should be complaining about the terrible Photoshop job on the black eye! Could they not have spent 5 minutes to do that with makeup?

It would still be faster in Photoshop if they actually knew how to use the damn tool.

I have a feeling this advert is from long before Photoshop existed

From the fine print: 1974
Just a tad.

Well, for many younger folks that's almost as far away as the French revolution.

This photo/ad was published closer to the french revolution than today.*

I suspect they probably had to get the ad out that day to print so they just took whatever stock photo they had on hand, smudged it with something black and shipped it out. Finding a model, setting up a photoshoot, makeup and printing before getting to work on the ad would take too long.
