Try to resist these toothpaste love stories from the Philippines

THE WORK: 'Make your move' for CloseUp Philippines by MullenLowe Philippines.

Even a grizzled curmudgeon like Ad Nut couldn't resist these sweet stories. it's especially good to hear the internal dialogues of the characters as they question themselves and try to talk themselves into having the confidence to make a move. It ties in well with a brand that has always been about the confidence to get up close and personal. All the better that the couples here represent a nice diversity of orientations and situations. Nice work.
