Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Great Magazine at a Lower Price :) Comment: This magazine is great! It has great tips for beauty & style, but also goes into more detail for other things such as college life and nutrition & fitness. A normal 2-year subscription is around $20 but I only paid around $5 for it! I recommend this magazine for all teen girls, its fun & helpful! Customer Rating: Summary: Awesome. Comment: As a teenager, I think that this magazine beats all else. In my earlier teen years, I read magazines like J-14 and Twist, which did not seem to give me much else other than celebrity gossip and horoscopes (things I can read online but wouldn't pay for). Then, a couple years ago, I started reading Seventeen. This provided me with advice on boys, fashion (although this tends to be the section I skip over the most. I do, however, enjoy the occassional laugh at some overly eccentric outfits they put together), sex, and diet and exercise (as a vegetarian, I love the few but helpful vegetarian diet suggestions). I love that it gives us real advice that we can relate to and go out and do. Also, the fashion (the ones that aren't unnecessarily flamboyant) is affordable and always gives advice according to your body shape (and isn't just skinny so those that aren't model types can look fantastic too), which gives us more confidence that we can look good. In addition, there are some small little things that make this magazine truly unique. There are the letters from the editor about what's coming up and what has happened recently, and there is sometimes a story from one of the staffers about their life and the troubles they've been through with guys and such, and inspiring stories about girls that have done something great with their lives. Overall, I think this magazine is wholesome and good for the average teenage girl now, because the stories and the advice this magazine provides us with perfectly fit with what we're going through and the society we live in now. Sure, I've become a little bit more shallow by reading it, but I've also become more aware of the things going on around me through the different stories. So I lost a little of my sanity, but I gained a lot more back in knowledge and awareness. Customer Rating: Summary: Have to edit Comment: After seeing that her 15 yr old cousins read this (and even some of her 12-13 yr old friends!), my daughter and I had a lot of discussions over whether I would allow her to start getting this magazine or not. We looked into other magazines that I thought were more appropriate (seem to be a lot for 8-12 yr old girls but not too many for 12-17 yr old girls) for a 12 yr old. Finally I agreed to let her get this magazine only on the condition that I see it first and edit out the inappropriate articles, etc. I don't need my 12 yr old learning how to "hook up" etc. Customer Rating: Summary: Great gift subscription for a young teen! Comment: I read Seventeen Magazine back in the olden days, and it's still a good magazine today. It's got great advice on fashion, make-up, getting along in school socially and academically -- it's all here! I purchased this for a family member just starting out in high school, and I know that she will love it as much as we did back then! Customer Rating: Summary: Faithful for 40 years Comment: In the late 60's, I, like many teens, was unhappy with the way I looked. I loved the make-over feature in Seventeen and wrote to them, hoping they would do a make-over on me. I really didn't expect a response; I was sure they had millions of readers. However, not only did they write and say if they were ever in my town, they would definitely consider me, they also sent me many articles to help with all the flaws I had described to them. The one I most remember is drawing a white line down my nose to make it look longer and less wide. Unfortunately, I wasn't very good about blending it so I got an occasional question, "Why is that white line down your nose?" but what helped the most for my self-esteem is that someone at the magazine took the time to write back and express their caring. (BTW, I grew into my nose and actually like it now.) I swore when I had a daughter, she would also get a subsciption and since she is about to turn 13, it's time. I look forward to reading my old friend and confidant and I know she will too!
