I’m a magazine junkie! I read so many magazines a month, and even though I try to cut back, I end up subscribing to even more. Which magazines do you read? Here are the ones I currently get in the mail each month:

Beauty Magazines
Allure
This is currently my favorite because it always has lots of info about the newest beauty products that are coming out. It also usually has articles about skin care or anti-aging, which are my favorite topics. I don’t get why they think it’s great that Britney Spears is on the cover, but they would never, ever stoop to the level of having Paris Hilton on the cover. I don’t get the difference.

Vogue
Bazaar
Elle
Glamour
American Spa
These are my fashion/beauty magazines. I studied fashion photography in college, so I still rip out tearsheets and save them. Most of these magazines also have articles about breakthroughs in skin care, and a lot of times they will report on up and coming skin treatments I haven’t even heard about yet! I’m not sure if I’m going to continue my Glamour because it takes a long time to read, and I already get too many magazines! American Spa isn’t too exciting to me, but it contains the supplement Medical Spa Report, which features breakthroughs in the world of Medical Spas. If you work in the Medical Spa field, I recommend signing up for the free online version of Medical Spa Report.

Health Magazines
Fitness
Health
Nutrition Action
I love reading about working out and eating well, even though I find it easier to read about than to actually do! Nutrition Action is good because it is sort of a Consumer Reports for health. It tells you what is actually healthy and good for you, based on research and facts, and the magazine lobbies to force the food industry to get rid of trans fats, have more accurate labels on food, etc.

Other Magazines
Entrepreneur
Money
Smart Money
Consumer Reports
Aside from my love of beauty, skin care and fashion, I also have an interest in personal finance, and I strive to be an entrepreneur. I like Consumer Reports because it’s helped me to buy a fabulous vacuum and laundry detergent, but it also occasionally reports on skin care. One of my moisturizers happened to recently get a Best Buy by Consumer Reports, because it was one of the few moisturizers to actually show a reduction in fine lines, and it’s not overly expensive: Olay Regenerist Deep Hydration Regenerating Cream.

When I go to the store, I inevitably flip through (or buy) even more magazines - Star, Real Beauty, 944, Vegas, Conde Nast Traveler. So many magazines, so little time! Woops, I just signed up to receive Skin Inc since it’s free! Yay, a skin care magazine!
