Self-care has become an everyday ritual rather than a luxury, consumers are spending more time, money, and effort on their appearances and well-being than ever -- in exploring human futures, beauty is being used to shape ourselves as much as our future.

We all know the power of design and all the good it can do, but what's worse than having bad design? An 'evil' one. Consider where human-centered design ends and manipulative "persuasive design" begins: blog.experientia.com/unethical-pers…
