I’m sure many of us used to devour teen magazine after teen magazine when we were younger. My magazine of choice was Mizz. Now I’m older, I’m under no illusion that many of the teen magazine industry’s articles were leading me to think about myself, and in a wider way femininity, in a very specific light.

That’s why this piece really resonated with me. I’d love to know how to get my best me ever!
