In India, almost every day an angry man throws acid on his girlfriend’s or wife’s face. Over a thousand cases of acid attacks are reported every year. The Supreme Court of India has banned over-the-counter sale of acid since 2013. Yet acid is easily available. Make Love Not Scars, an NGO dedicated to acid attack survivors, took on a mammoth task – to ban over-the-counter sale of acid.

A series of beauty vlogs were launched on YouTube, where an acid attack survivor Reshma shares beauty tips with the world. Each vlog ended with a plea to crowd source signatures on a petition addressed to the Prime Minister of India for enforcing the ban on open sale of acid.
