Allure Magazine — 

Allure magazine is the definitive beauty source - no other magazine gives in-depth and the most current news about beauty products.  Most magazines have a small sections devoted to the beauty scene but are mostly concerned with  fashion and articles of, to me, useless info.  I am a beauty professional and this is a subscription that I will forever keep - it gives me a quick resource to new products and more importantly - products that I know my clients are going to hear about/see and want to know more about and hopefully buy!! 

The only beef I have, and I have written to the editor is that I don't appreciate that when crediting specific cosmetics used in a photo, the photo is never close up or in appropriate lighting to actually see the shades.  I mean I can see the model is made up but you wouldn't be able to tell what eyeshadow, eyeliner or even lipcolor she is actually wearing!  I think that this is purposely done, the credits are being paid for by the vendor and who knows what the makeup artist actually used on the model. 

That aside, the actual information given on products is always fantastic and very up to the minute!!
