Image 1: I love how there is a boxed area around the title making it stand out more as there is bright pink font upon it. The pose that teh model is doing makes a strong sexual look also appealing to the audience as it isnt 'boring'. As she is looking straight at the camera it gives a more personal appraoch amoung the viewer too. However this magazine has more than three colours in the palette as there is pink and white being the two main but then black and grey with in the title.


Image 2: Although the picture has no colour i think it works well as the text then stands out more. This pose is more fun on the other hand althought the model has make up down her face like she has been crying it gives more a vibrant fun look rather in comparison to a sexy look.


Image 3: I dont like this front cover as much as the others i have reviewed as it isnt as eye catching due to the colours used the red is eye catchhing however there isnt enough of it being used for text. The white is contrasting but it is abit boring and plain.
