Beauty in Medellin
 We might think that beauty today is a gimmick, a fantasy that many extreme measures to get real has lost its character and charm. In today's society, beauty has become an attribute which all should enjoy, this has led to women who are not, or believe to be non-recourse to extreme measures to obtain it, such as: operations, unhealthy diets, extreme exercise, diet pills ... Throughout history we have relied on certain procedures that are clever ways to be beautiful, as is the makeup. The purpose of makeup, as you mentioned Baudrillard, is to create a seductive fiction. However, most of these tricks, there remains a certain degree of reality.
 Modern Stereotypes
CLASSICAL - MODERN LITTLE SMART :It is the imperfect fusion of classic and modern, enhancing their little wisdom in all its aspects, taking the worst of the worst classic and modern. Making lifestyle totally materialistic, and consumes everything in terms of how they dress and ways of being physically, so if this stereotype is often the laughing stock of groups and masses, know ridiculed and have a mentality closed in all stereotypes, and rarely know to get right down in the rest of stereotypes.
MODERN :Is one that is based on the current, consumes all kinds of things that compete with their peers, making it an undesirable person and can only link between modern stereotypes as the rest of them are stereotypes to fat geeks , slum dwellers, old, etc. These people are easy to recognize, using the latest of the latest, fashion, technology, dyeing, operations, and even ways of speaking. Many of these stereotypes is shown with the little they have since not all have money and for some TV characters chocolate factories owners. It is the stereotype that comprises most of its qualities. Among them we find:
MODERN POOR: Those / as it costs to defend their offspring, usually dye their hair, put contact lenses colored (obviously are those sold in the pharmacy that only last 3 months and use it for almost a year because it gives them the pocket), try to have the last cell and be connected to all social networks and modern feel, maintain a lexicon using modern ultra repeatedly in less than 10 words, for example, "TYPE" "or", "OK", "FACHERO EH!", etc. They feel part of the elite high knowing in the back who are not well in the background while they do not realize what they are clown.
MODERN MIDDLE CLASS: Ditto the modern poor but is also attached breast surgery, nose, and crow's feet, surgeries that are rarely good, and now, if you leave behind all sorts of existing offspring, descendants would come to anyone and "leave a legacy?, well do not leave much cultural, moral little, but that if! leave everything to which materially concerned, to have a little more silver than the poor class, not only have a good phone, also compete for the best netbook / notebook, the newest car, a house not so simple, but not so modern life and that all fees paid in all things that consume modernism.
MODERN RICO: Ditto the rest of the moderns, but with a touch more luck as abundant as silver, silver having surgeries can be full body with the best doctors in the world use more expensive clothing not her web or the seams of a great dressmaker, but often buy something too ugly but the price is everything. As well as their mentality is summed up to what they think, making your world a unique world where leaders are no absolute, single one of them, since all his thoughts are summarized creations of his imagination, no source, and obviously people do not share 70% of their thoughts, but there is a 30 which are usually the modern stereotype.
