As most of the research in media representation and beauty ideal suggest that the current beauty ideal and cosmetic industry became a source of oppression for women, Hope in a jar is definitely a good read to complicate this perception and alter people’s views. Written by Kathy Peiss, a professor in American History currently at the University of Pennsylvania, hope in a jar is a fascinating book that appeals to both academics and the public. Having been working on similar topics for years, Peiss is particularly interested in how culture shapes individuals’ beliefs and daily lives in America. Her work includes studying of women and interracial sexuality, the beauty industry in the U.S. and abroad through a history point of view.
