Allure Beauty Magazine


I picked up the American magazine Allure on Thursday (November issue).  Mainly out of curiosity.  I've read other blogs which rave about/slate this magazine and I decided I'd like a look.  There is an International newsagent near my work which stocks a lot of foreign titles.


I was especially taken with Juicy Couture Lip Glosses - in Brut, Rose and Kir Royale.  Kir Royale is a berry tint  - enhances natural lip colour, adds shine and tastes of raspberry liqueur! 

I also fancy the Malin+Goetz Absolute Rose Candle - created for Allure's 20th Anniversary which combines Moroccan Rose with green ivy, Anjou pear, bamboo and musk.

Also found it interesting to look at other American products we can't get here and products which are the same as we get although packaged differently.  

It also includes fashion, footwear, beauty articles and an article on personal trainers (and even more advertising than our magazines).

I'll probably get the December issue when its available here. Retails at £4.40.  Has anyone else read the magazine? x

    @Claire Louise, it is interesting though I'm not sure I'll get it every month. I really want that juicy couture lipgloss though! x
