Winning by a nose
"Hey, you with the nose job! You look good enough to be Miss Plastic Surgery!" This is the message being sent to Chinese women who have had cosmetic surgery.
A beauty contest is to be held in October open to any woman who can prove that her beauty is man-made. The initiative was launched after a woman was banned from a traditional beauty contest after spending US$13,000 on 11 cosmetic operations. China recently lifted a 54-year-ban on beauty pageants.
