Makeup Mags

[Krasevayadancer]

Mods, forgive me if this has been posted before. Couldnt find a thread devoted to this.

Now im curious, do any of you subscribe to beauty mags. I know of and/or subscribe to the following

Allure (sub)
Glamour (sub)

Zink- got it once, disliked it!
New Beauty- All ads, glad I got this for free

I know of makeup artist mag, but havent picked up a copy yet (you need to sub i think)

Is makeup artist mag any good and are there any other good ones i havent looked into?

 

[Ms. Z]

I love fashion magazines, I have subscriptions (which exp. now, I have to re-new) for Allure, Marie Claire, Cosmopolitan, Latina, Lucky & Glamour

I spend too much $ on other magazines, I am going to have to subscribe to them
Bazaar, Elle, In Style, More, Vanidades, Vanity Fair, Vogue & People Style Watch

In Style has been focusing a lot of attention lately on makeup tips and tricks, and I know they recently had a special issue on Makeovers.

Allure is the only one that I know of that really is devoted to makeup. I also get In Style, Harpers Baazar, Elle, Vogue, etc. but they are more fashion oriented.

Nobody subscribes to makeup artist magazine?

 

[Babycakes]

Ive heard of it,been wanting to get a sub.its looks awesome

I love allure!
i dont think there are many beauty magazines around.
Im such a magazine junkie, I buy at least 6 different ones each month. And I subscribe to harpers bazaar(dont really like it though, it was a gift) and seventeen!

 

[newagetomatoz]

Ditto on Allure!
That is the one I always end up buying but never get a subscription to! I love how they talk about so many different aspects and all that jazz. ((heehee, sorry. That was me being weird there))

Haha. Everyone in my house is always teasing me about how many mags I have. I've got Elle, Vogue(on occasion, my library sells them for 10 cents each), Seventeen, Harper's Bazaar, 2 Allure issues (I think I want to resubscribe, though), The Artists' Magazine, and a couple others. Now I will just show them this thread and they will shut up!
I had found one those little subscription cards that are always falling out of the mags (you know the ones) that said I could get 3 years of Elle for only $16 ! I sent it in and now I'm set for 3 years. It's the only one I've ever found that cheap. Elle is prob my favortie one. If they disappoint with the fashion, pics, or cover celebrity, they make up for it with their articles (and I love it that there's always a feminist undertone and that they have a lot of emphasis on artists).
Is it just me or does Seventeen kind of repeat itself makeup/beauty wise? They should have more of a variety of skin tones for examples and more variety of celebrities they put on the cover. My free Marie Claire issue should be arriving soon. I don't like Vogue or Harper's Bazaar that much. I don't know, I get a kind of snooty feel from them. Although, Harper's Bazzar probably has the prettiest/glossiest pics of all the mags I have.

I was also wondering about that pro makeup artist mag.

Oh, and this is my 1st post b/c I'm New!! yay

I did read MAM for a while, but it's a little too SFX-orientated for me.

The Powder Group has a new make-up magazine coming out next year. It's geared towards artists, but I'm sure it will have useful information for everyone.

The problem with beauty magazines is that they are pushing certain lines of products and giving precious little instruction,and most of the "instruction" is directed toward seasonal trends rather than techniques.

I'm a magazine junkie and used to pay the high subscription rates but I have found amazing deals on ebay. Make sure you look that they are not charging you shipping and look at their feedback. I have been buying this way for several years now. My husband hates how many I get but I love them. I pass them to my daughter-in-law when I'm done. It takes the same amount of time to get 6-8 weeks just like if you ordered straight from the mag itself. I just got my brother 4 different Golf magazines as a birthday gift, 2 are weekly 1yr and 2 are monthly 3 yr and it was a little over $30.00 for all. A lot of mags you can get more than one year for a great price but some like People you just are never going to get cheap. I like beauty, fashion, fitness, and celebrity mags. I recently bought a 3 yr sub to Interview for $3.97. If you are buying for a teen I always got my daughter like 3 yrs of CosmoGirl, Teen Vogue and Seventeen. There are several reliable sellers on there just always look at the feedback.

It seems I'll have to check out allure, the only reason I never buy it is because the only place I've found it is in Selfridges.

 

[NoAddedSugar]

I sub to Allure because I can't find it in London even though other people swear they buy it here.

I generally buy Marie Claire, In Style, Red, Vouge, Elle, Japanese Vogue, First (a weekly here) and HB but not always every month. I kind of pick and choose with these.

I've heard of MUA magazine but haven't bought it yet, I'm hoping to get a sub fro christmas. I haven't been able to find one that is in the UK or dedicated to Europe instead of the US.

Re: What makeup magazines are there?

Allure is considered a "Beauty" magazine. I also like Marie Claire because they do monthly beauty picks and "Splurge and Steal" where the show expensive stuff and good dupes.
