Magazine Genre Research 1 SHAPE

I'm looking to do a health kind of magazine so I looked over this magazine called 'SHAPE'. This version is mainly about inside and outside body health, it goes over many things in between also. The cover is of a young woman who has a youthful appearance who is wearing fitted clothes. Her outfit is bright and shows parts of the body showing that she is healthy and fit. The background also adds to the bright and eye catching cover, in all the cover looks fun and trendy. The text has many different fonts to add a variety to the cover, also it has bullet points under one of the titles. Most of the colors are hues of orange, red, and yellow which give off a aesthetically pleasing look. The articles cover skin care, healthy food, and makeup as well as other topics. Mixed in with these healthy articles are healthy products being promoted through ads. The ads consist of hair health products and specific skin care products. The photos inside the magazine are of young women who use the brands or have a youthful and healthy appearance, with bright and contrasting colors. They also have photos of healthy foods and recipes that go along with the article to show an example of what to expect. The audience of this magazine is mostly women and appeals to young and old as it tells of health and products that both would like. SHAPE's distribution and circulation sits at 2,500,000 and is the 2nd most popular women's magazine. SHAPE has won a few awards in health and also likes to award brands in the magazine for being the best of that year.
